TN would have achieved astronomical growth if not for the public fascination towards cinema and intoxication among the youth - Saseendran Muthuvel, governor of Papua New Guinea in Coimbatore

Participating in an event at a private school in Coimbatore, Papua New Guinea Governor Saseendran Muthuvel, in an interaction with the students, said that there was no point in giving money to liquor and spending it back to the hospital.



Coimbatore: Papua New Guinea Governor Saseendran Muthuvel, who participated in an event held at a private school in Coimbatore, interacted with the students and answered their questions.



During the discussion, the students replied that the majority of the youth were wasting time by putting a big cut-out on someone acting and wasting the money given by parents.

Moreover, there is a tendency in Tamil Nadu, especially in south India, to accept the majority of the youth as big people if they act in films and if they become popular by acting in films, they are accepted as leaders.

This is a very big weakness, he said.



Moreover, if the government needs funds, it can make money by starting public companies instead of getting money from liquor and making people spend it for medical purposes. Alcohol and drugs account for 90% of crimes. No matter what the justification is, the impact will be greater," he said.

Tamil Nadu would have gone somewhere if cinema infatuation and intoxication had been taken away. In spite of both of these, if Tamil Nadu is growing, it would have become a superpower of India without them, he said.



The event was organised Vishnuprabhu RM who is the trade commissioner of Papua New Guinea hailing from Coimbatore and is also member of DMK.
