This is a small country with limited resources. Can we afford the time spent on endless debates about ethnicity and identity? - Joni Madraiwiwi

We have survived bitter divisions in our society. Reconciliation requires us to put aside our differences and forgive the injuries done to us just as justice is essential to that equation. Those who have done wrong and broken the law must be punished. There can be no setting to rights or settling of accounts without that element. Until that is done there will be no finality to our collective nightmare. Until we all accept that simple fact the sense of hurt and betrayal continue.

Remember that the actions of a few, with commitment, can alter the course of world history.

However social integration cannot be forced and not proceed at the pace that the community considers uncomfortable.
