Hey RokRokers,

Check out this new Telek film clip to accompany his new releases, Akave in Australia,and Pairap Gen in PNG. It’s an Airi Ingram remix of West Papua(merdeka mix).

* Some sad news here from our clueless nutters at NBC:

Sounds of Chimbu destroyed
Source: By ZACHERY PER - The National

A RARE collection of traditional Chimbu songs, string band music, legends and myths and traditional bamboo flute sounds were destroyed last week.
The National Broadcasting Corporation’s library and archives building in Kundiawa, containing this rare collection, was demolished last Thursday to make way for the new highlands regional treasury building.
The NBC building was constructed in 1973, and the recordings destroyed were a collection of the last 37 years.
It was demolished in the presence of Chimbu Governor Fr John Garia and other MPs from the province. Also there was Finance secretary Gabriel Yer, NBC acting managing director Memafu Kapera and NBC board chairman Paul Reptario.
The National saw remains of the destroyed records burning and lying around the perimeter fence of the site last weekend.
NBC management and staff, who have relocated to a new site near the Kundiawa-Gembogl district office and the provincial education office, have reportedly failed to relocate the archived records.
Director of Sangamanga Culture Environment Protection (SCEP) Eric Sinebare expressed grave concerns over the loss of these rare collections.
He blamed the management and staff of NBC Kundiawa for failing to relocate these items when they moved out three months ago.
Sinebare said when the official demolition was carried out last Thursday, NBC staff arrived and collected what they wanted, leaving the records behind.
“By 6pm last Saturday, the public moved in and helped themselves, scattering the recordings on a shelf all over.”

Peace Out
