QUOTE OF THE DAY: “I have heard that the Vice President is coming to campaign. To you women, let me say this: our campaign as the Twic Community this time is not about merely shouting ‘SPLM Oyee!’ No. Our ‘Oyee’ is for whoever will stock our hospitals with medicines. Our ‘Oyee’ is for whoever will revive our schools, equip them properly, and provide electricity, something our people have lacked since 1993. Our ‘Oyee’ is for whoever will connect our communities through roads linking Wunrok to Ajak Kuach, Toch Ajuath, and Toch Achel. But if the campaign is only about distributing red T-shirts and caps, that is not our 'Oyee.' When you see crowds wearing SPLM red T-shirts, it does not mean they love the SPLM. Many people cannot afford clothes, so they take opportunities to get something to wear and protect their heads from the sun." - W***y Angok Ngor, Former Chairperson of Amiol Youth
