 A LETTER questioning the real objective of the Manus processing camp shows that we have become puppets of the Australian government by returning to the colonial era of “yesa masta”. It is sad that we have sacrificed our cultural values of friends to all and enemy to none to accept Australia’s political problems. The small, peaceful island of Manus has become a high security risk to the outside world and we are threatened. Australia does not care about our fragile environment, social, cultural and Christian values or our security. The lack of socio-economic developments in Manus reflects their usual arrogant attitude that has not changed. Look at the visa and climate change issues that they have refused to assist us in, and yet we agree to accept their problems as if we do not have our own.
