It will be a slap on the face of the people of Madang if the ring leaders of the protest yesterday are arrested by the government. This will really show that there is no freedom of speech in this country. It will show the government’s shift from so called democracy to dictatorship. It will really look bad for the government.
But nonetheless if they government arrests the ring leaders all protesters in Madang are prepared to also be arrested along with their leaders. They feel it will not be fair if the leaders are arrested. If the government is smart, it should let the people express the concerns.
Other centres in the country are also planing to do what the Madang people did. If the government is serving the interests of the people, there will not be such protests. These protests are a response to the many injustices in this country and the government by now should listen to the people. The people had enough and are frustrated. The National Alliance's rule in this country is now numbered. This could be the down fall of the ruling party.
