I feel for you students - don't do it.
If learnt individuals are twisting and bending, than you/we all are meat in the sandwich.
I got free bullet in 2016 - i am typing while still have these scars and fillets in my body.
PO said - who are stds? Yet, SRC and std leaders that time went on to work for the very people/govt we went against.
Most of us did not complete studies, we had to stay another 2 to 3 years to complete my/our study.
Today, Pangu led has 81 learnt politicians on the floor of parliament who also comes from a:
Family,
Village
A society and
District and have their generational family linkages across in PNG - but still disregard us for whatever reasons known to themselves.
The pain we feel - they and theirs too will go through or feel either today or tomorrow.
"No one is immune to inflation; high cost of goods and services and to name a few which we all access - they and theirs too will".
Learn this from a true brother who struggle to made it to university and almost got killed in 2016 UPNG strike and no one, I say it again, none [opposition or govt) to date try to account for those whom we got injury or bullet for that matter.
Others will praise you, applaud you and say good staffs now but when you down - no one will be there for you. This is a living testament - declaimer! I am no supporter to government nor then opposition for that matter.disclaimer. I am only a concern individual, once a victim of 2016 nationwide universities strike.Hear this from a true brother - again, victim 2016
