Minjilang, Northern Territory
Minjilang, formerly Mission Bay, is the Aboriginal community located on Croker Island, some 235 km (146 mi) east northeast of Northern Territory's capital of Darwin. It is the only settlement of any size on Croker Island (besides Minjilang, there are only eight small family outstations). The island is just a few kilometres from Cobourg Peninsula on the mainland. The community of Minjilang is on the opposite, eastern side of the island on Mission Bay, a secluded bay.〔(Minjilang community profile from Minjilang Community Inc. )〕
==Population==
At the 2011 census, Miljilang had a population of 308 primarily Aboriginals of the Yarmirr people. About 150 speak Iwaidja and are the only speakers of this language, but English, Gunwinggu and Maung are also spoken. Approximately 48% of the population is unemployed.〔(2006 census )〕 Croker Island offered a safe haven to many children from the "Stolen Generation" (the policy of forceful removal of indigenous children from their families). Croker is a so-called ''dry'' community, meaning no alcohol may be brought into the village, to prevent abuse. However, the controlled sale of kava is licensed.〔(Regulations re the sale of kava in Minjilang )〕
