Our Art of Taekwon-Do is all about helping to build a more peaceful world. We have a chance now to demonstrate this literally by helping our Papua New Guinea neighbours to rebuild their village which was recently destroyed. The community leaders have sworn there will be no retaliation for the attack on their village, rather they would like to focus on rebuilding their village which has sustained immense damage and affected many innocent bystanders.
