In this story we take you to Bougainville to see first hand the struggles and hardship faced by the woman and children of this tiny nation during the civil war.
Both Bougainvilleans and PNG lost everything in the crisis. The winner of this conflict was BCL, the operator of the Panguna Mine. BCL will do anything to thwart the delicate self-determination process. I hope Mr.Taorama will be vigilant about his handling of the mine wealth and foreign investors and not give in easily through shady deals. Independence is a paper process. The real war is the war of wealth extraction from panguna mine.
PNG DF killing the people which It should be providing security for them. Are we soldiers trained to kill our selves? I hope this must not happen again.
Fuck I wish I could stay there 😢😢😢mi. Sorry I was younger by that time we had the news on radio VANUATU every day one day I told my mother I should go there to join BRA
The sharing of this conflict hardship, deprivation and brutality brings tears to my eyes. Great people I've admired and wished to live with for as long as I live...Laikim yupela olgeta.

Copper mine Jewel...That said it all.The Australian iron mines have screwed the native population in the north arnhem land.No goverment gives a toss about people; but if its shiney they want it. Well fought BRA.
My Father was a solider and was in the crisis's from 1989 to 1996 such did not happen as they were loyal and brave not to harm or kill civilians. So the strong believe that this was for money and gain. The Story needs to be told...
Screaming children as an opener is aversive and an instant "click off" for viewers - just my directional advice. It is an ineffective filmic device for future projects.
You listen punk the bougainville people had the right to defend themselves. Papa new guinea Australia and New Zealand are the fault of these war crimes.
You think that fucking great hole in the middle of their island,the worlds biggest open cast copper mine,made their island a heaven???Thats why they were fighting.
