However, it seems that Peter's hope of being a honest broker in the Ministerial meeting in Suva, has dark clouds hanging over his head, that raise brows over his integrity.

Peters' sojourn to Fiji, was perhaps a ideal moment to escape the swarming media attention over his campaign finances, for the upcoming New Zealand elections.
