He tells Michael about how they're cooperating with each other, too – splitting duties like security and the daily cleaning of the compound.
'We don't always want to get the attention of the people about the hardship,' he explains. 'We are just paying the price for our freedom.'

And with New Zealand's resettlement offer in the headlines, he reflects on why Australia has so far refused it.

Abdul Aziz Muhamat
After seven long months in Port Moresby recovering from knee surgery, Aziz finally returns to Manus Island. He’s overjoyed to be home in the detention centre – seeing his friends and sleeping in his old bed.
But just as he returns, the Australian government begins shutting some of the centre’s compounds – trying to force refugees to go home, or accept resettlement in Papua New Guinea. Aziz and the other detainees refuse to leave....

Just before Christmas of 2016, Aziz is transferred to Port Moresby for knee surgery. With better phone reception, Michael and Aziz share a long phone call in which they reflect on the year that’s ending, the holiday season and the months since they met face to face on Manus Island.

Even though Aziz is in detention, far away from both his home and from the country whose government is holding him, he’s on his phone all day. He’s sending messages to Michael, or he’s on Facebook with friends and activists, or he’s following the latest news in Australia.

What he'd rather know is why he’s just spent weeks locked in a jail cell in Lorengau, before being abruptly released without charge.

How has Aziz fought for so long, and what makes him want to be ‘the messenger’?

But he’d never spoken to someone who was still inside a detention centre, and that’s because Australia’s immigration department, and the governments of Nauru and Manus, have traditionally made it very difficult for journalists to communicate with detainees. Visitors aren’t allowed to make recordings, and the people who came by boat weren’t initially allowed to use their own phones.
