AC Be Stolen

The stealer that happened to steal the AC but could not might have been someone from the neighbourhood. Stealing AC is one thing that I find silly and funny. What was the stealer point of stealing the AC? Maybe the stealer might have wanted to have one but then he could not afford buying one his own so, he decided to steal from the school. Unfortunately, he did not get his chance. Stealing AC is an impossible thing when we look at it. How can one person drag down an AC from a higher place? It would be so embarrassing for him to carry it all around the hood trying to get to his house. People from the Marshall Islands are not supposed to do such thing because it is not appropriate when it comes to our traditional practices and custom. At homes, parents teach their kids to have well manners at all time. Even though the kids are being taught not to do bad things since they were young, they still do it and it is all because of how westernised and influenced we are today.

  2. Interesting comments, Pam. I have heard that many of the customs and traditional culture of the Marshall Islands and other Pacific Island Nations have been lost or changed for the worse since contact with the colonists - mostly from America and Europe but also Japan. That is too bad. Might does not make right, but unfortunately that is the story of history and colonialism. Native Hawaiians have had a really hard time since Britain, America and other nations came and took over their land and wouldn't let them live their traditional lifestyle. I'd be interested to hear more of your experience and thoughts about this. Thanks, Malachy
