| Message | In Vanuku today there are many human rights' abuses, but these laws that disallow any worker to strike is a violation of a natural human right, to the Vanuku Corporate Alliance, they use these laws as to keep their hold on the country, these use these as what they use for an advancment of their agenda, and frankly it's a backwards one.
