Keep up the struggle outside

Consolidate the organisation and keep close to the people. Quickly or slowly the people will march forward to make their own history. Believe in each other and help each other. We in prison will keep up the fight the best we can. We are saying nothing. We have refused to make any statements or be interrogated under the Subversion Act No 11/pnps/1963 because this Act was introduced by the Guided Democracy Government of the day as a way to legitimise suppression of its political opponents.
