A
boy, from the remotest hamlets of Papua New Guinea has written a book
titled "Goal Achieved: Grade Six Dropout to University Graduate in
Papua New Guinea”.
During that time, back then, in 80s or even today, those students
who fail to secure more book learning are called failures or dropouts. This has
significant impact on students and parents desire to build on what has been
achieved for further education opportunities.
At that time, there were limited education prospects
available for such group of kids unlike today,
yet through perseverance, fought the toughest time of his life to achieve his dream
education.
He further went on to write a book to tell the world that dropping
out from education system is NOT losing a war. This book was first published in
2012 in Papua New Guinea.
The book highlights the struggles of his days to accomplish the
University qualification, the ups and downs of life, and the rapid social and
cultural changes that are happening in Papua New Guinea. The book reflects the
general lives of school’s kids in Papua New Guinea.
Fortunately, this book has finally made its way from long journey
into the world’s biggest bookshelves - the Amazon in electronic form –e-book as
well paperback. It’s now live on Amazon for purchase @$0.95 [click the price to take
