There is a print advertisement in Papau New Guinea which is a photo of a
Highland man dressed in full regalia (probably for the annual Highlands
Show), swigging down a bottle of Coka-Cola, next to a smiling white woman.

It is an interesting juxtaposition of race and sexuality, tradition and
modernity...
