You mean Papua New Guinea! And not just that one, but slowly and steadily even Maldives is sinking into the ocean and is slated to completely submerge in water in the next 40-50 years! This is an incident which is speeded up more by depleting mangrove forestations and other natural vegetation that are found in coastal areas!

In fact I remember reading some time ago, that they are searching to buy land in some continent where they can shift, before it is submerged. A whole country moving out!!!

If you see the map of Australia you'll observe that only the bottom coast line is having human settlements. Upwards for thousands of kms on all sides it is a vast empty land. Sooner or later it has to share it with the growing population of the world willingly or by force.
