Kaycii plans to work with health and education facilities in Central after completing his Masters.
“For too long our people have been marginalised, neglected and ignored because they come to Port Moresby thinking they can have easy access to health and education. But it has never been easy for them.
“I want to be on the ground in Rigo district to assist in establishing health and education services in any way I can to be of higher standard and to be easily accessible to my people.”
Kaycii loves to help others.
“Many people today are more self- centered and only engage in activities to benefit themselves. I’ve learnt to share my blessing with others. The more the Lord blesses us with, the more we must try to share it with others. Bless others with our achievements and the Lord will add his blessings on us.”
