Noel Pearson's sugar daddies

QUESTION:Re:``Cape York Institute'' --little is revealed about its funding, apart from the icons at the bottom of the page that indicate it is a quasi-government outfit. Might be worth digging further into who funds this promotion of Noel Pearson as a ``leader''. Its board of directors seems 50/50 Indigenous identities and big business/institutional education reps.
