Title Why Savamui village was moved
Description A story detailing how Savamui was shifted to make it easier to carry cargo up the river. This story was poking fun at both the Mori village people (who decided that the village would be shifted) and the Australians, who forced them to move the cargo up an extremely difficult path. The story is an odd mix of Fas/Momu and Tok Pisin. Originally Yarin was going to say each sentence in both languages, but it gets a bit confused towards the end.
