I feel for this person and getting scared at the same time watching this. Everyday we have to drive with fear because you can be held up (by rascals) anywhere in Pom. What are we (government, police, bystanders etc) doing about safety, law and order ......

A local family of authors is set to inspire the younger generation to get into the habit of writing, and maybe one day, publishing their own books.

The family held a small but significant occasion encouraging university students to get into writing.

My new article investigates how the West Papuan campaign (pre-1962 NY agreement) hit upon tensions between territorial integrity and self-determination within anti-colonial politics. I also make a case for the inclusion of the Pacific in studies of the GS. https://t.co/czF2TUqbaO
