GERMAN SOLOMON ISLANDS (cont).
A road runs right round Buka.
In Bougainville the road starts at Banin and goes down the north east coast, with the exception of a gap from about Numa Numa to Rorovan; it then continues from Rorovan to Loloei. There are a few short stretches of road at other parts in Bougainville. The roads however are bad, in much the same condition as those at Simpsonshafen.
The same remarks apply to the roads in New Ireland.
