Yiŋiya:
"We would like to establish a communication... I learn your culture, your language and way of life and I expect you to come and learn my language and culture [so] to understand me better... come and sit down with me - live with me - learn with me - learn about me - learn my ways - learn my culture... through that we can understand each other and work together so that there is no misunderstanding between us in the future"
"I need to show you my culture and you need to show me your culture and what you want to do so we can understand each other with empathy... [a] big strong empathy... that it needs to take a strong will from me to understand you... and strong will from you to understand me."
