Payments were made for a piece of land measuring 3.5 hectares on the mainland so that those now settled at the Dandan care centre can make gardens and access resources to make life sustainable.
Wewak District CEO Martin Maingu said the settlers are exercising self-sustenance.
Maingau said a month has passed since he has heard of any issues arising out of Dandan Care Centre, and puts it down to the islanders just settling in.
