00:00People need education, people need helis, but they don't have all this.
00:07My first priority now is to build a school in the village.
00:15In the financial Australia,
00:17we have a lot of people in Korea.
00:21We have a lot of people in Korea.
00:25That is all our brick.
00:27Wow.
00:28As far as building the school, it's a matter of persistence.
00:33You just have to have faith and keep going and hope.
00:37About 40 days walking.
00:3940 days and 40 nights.
00:42Those kids who are now under the tree
00:46are the people that are doing this on their behalf.
00:58Hold on, Zechariah. Hold on.
01:01I'll just look over this way, maybe there's another way.
01:05Just couldn't see how to get past this thing.
01:09Oh, we're doing a charity walk.
01:12Oh, I've said to my mother-in-law, what's happening?
01:15Oh, only because there's been a murder that's happened in Wollumar.
01:18Oh, you're joking.
01:20You're joking, really?
01:21Oh, a week ago, yeah.
01:23Oh.
01:24Don't go off to any traps.
01:25I don't know if we can find you.
01:27We've had $50 and $25 donors.
01:31And $10 and $5, you know, they're being as generous as they can be.
01:36It's more that we don't have major sponsors.
01:44Good morning.
01:45We really need to get it finished before the next rainy season.
01:56There was an incident that happened between two communities.
01:58We led 35 people dead.
02:01We can't be engaging in risky behaviour with the money.
02:06But the other thing, like, what I do see as affecting this project is my personal situation.
02:16The most important thing in life is that you have to take it as it happens.
02:20Because if you keep asking yourself why this happened to me, it will destroy you.
02:33But if not, we don't want to be a problem.
02:34But there's no way I can talk about it.
02:36I'm not going to be a problem.
02:37There, no way.
02:38But if not, you need to know what I can interact with.
02:40There's no way I can go out with that.
02:41I know what it is.
02:42There are no choices where I can assume that I can tick it as well.
02:43There are no choices about it.
02:44There are no choices of that everything I can do today.
02:46There are no choices about this.
02:47But I want to be more competitive than I can do today,
