These were sentiments made by villagers from rural Yalam and Komgi wards during a recent visit by the East New Britain Provincial Member, Michael Marum.
Both villages are tucked away in the blue mountain ranges of Lassul Baining LLG of Gazelle District and still face issues with road accessibility.
The visit by the Provincial Member and a delegation saw the team take a 5-hour walk from the Raunsepna transit, and then another 5-hour walk from Yalam to Komgi ward.
