I have ask moses if he knew anything about SSTC when he is atschool.. Moses said when they are at school they normally are affected in a form of gas smell.Did the student really affected by the SSTC gas smell and he said some students get sick justbecause of this everyday gas smell. What was the participant (participation) of student at schoolwhen the SST effect occur. Moses said when they are at school and the smell occurs somestudents really went home with no good reason or permission. I have asked when do theseeffects happen in a daily day and moses said when the wind blow strongly the smell really goton us because the school is very close. I also ask him about his opinion for the SST effect ans hesuggested thatr can they find some way to stop the smell to go worse.Alex Numubu DOB 5-16-1978 Village Kanganaman, Pagwi District, resident Nuigo 9 th street.I’ve lived 27 years inside Wewak town, beside Nuigo and other settlements. The fresh air hasbeen turned into polluted air. The factory is producing the smell. The land the factory was builton, how was it before? The land was very swampy and there were many living things there.Today those living things are gone. Are you interested in working at SST? No because I haveheard about their problem. Financial problem and too much labor. Does the factory effect you? Iam effected through the smell. It causes sickness and I do have diarrhea when I’m breathing thatsmell. Many of [the factory workers] are my classmates and friends around Wewak town.[nowadays, since the factory], many young children are involving in social nightclubs activitiesand involving children in sex activities. There are sex activities. How does it happen? Itnormally happens during 5 am to 6 am in the night ship hours. What are they really doingbetween these hours? They have clocked off at about 5 am and some are involved in sexactivities. Did you see any of the sex activities? I have witnesses a man and a woman at about 5am to 6 am when I was doing my road run.160
Kapmandu Service station. Did South Seas Tuna make any contact with you? They havemade contact with the interoil at Lae. How do they collect their fuel? They use a card call IPL tocollect their fuel. They pay us in a cheque. They use the IPL card because interoil provides thecard for the interoil suuplier. …we only provide fuiel for the transport. The factory machinesget their fuel from the IPL depot loading it into the factory. The factory operates and our salesof fuel has been increasing and the company is also making money. They pay us every month,they pay roughly as much as K2000 to K3000 every month, that depends on the transport usedwhen they collect K100 a day they look for that much to pay in monthly.Raymond Kondang, Saint Mary’s Primary School, grade 8 age 15 years. Do you feel effectsfrom SST? Yes. I don’t feel hungry and don’t concentrate on my school work. It occurs beforeand after lunch when the wind blows strongly. I used to block my nose and the class is stillcontinuing. I used to buy the lunch and wait when the smell is over then I have to eat it. I haveheard that a grade 5 student is womiting from the smell. I’d really like them to stop the smell ormove the factory to built in some way away. Student behavior is very bad when the odoureffects occur. I am breathing polluted air.Richard of 9 th Street Nuigo. From Sumbian Village. Operations Supervisor of Bangwi ServiceStation. Do you supply the fuel to SST? No we only supply the fuel to the factory transport.They use a card called BP Plus card, which is full of officical docyumentation of the companyand the transport number and the flat number of the transport. So we collect the amount andgive them the copy. They pay the bill at the end of the month. They pay it through BP oil in Laeand through our account. The amount to BP fuel in Lae is 10,000 to 13,000 a month. Does SSTcontribute significantly to your sales of fuel? It increased our fuel rate and our sales. We havesome problems, though. When the South Seas Tuna workers are on suspension and the workeris using the company transport. The company will send me a letter telling me that this personwill be suspended at that time plus the number of the transport and the flat number of thetransport. The Operations Supervisor will be blamed if they get fuel, because my boys don’tcooperate with me. So I deduct that amount from they wages when they give fuel to suspendedworkers.Paul Loff, Headmaster Saint Mary’s Primary School. From Hainiak Village Kubalia District.We do feel the effect of the factory. A strong smell continuously comes from the factory whenthe wind blows. It disturbs the students in their peaceful learning, and sometimes the childrenare sick. Almost every day. Sometims the children are sick and not attending class andsometimes the smell is chasing them away from classes. A good numbr of parents includingteachers complain about the smell. …Yes, the students continue to have their lunch despite the161
