The idea to have a special unit to fight corruption in cabinet, presented by Fiji's crooked Attorney General is quite laugable.
It's the same as having the Fox guard the Hen house. The proposed chairman (Alipate Qetaki- Is currently the chairman of Fiji Legal Reform Commission)has already too much on his small plate. That same Legal Commission was reported by Fiji media recently, that they were out of funds. Explaining why several prisoners could not have a lawyer provided to them, by the state.
Probably exactly what Qorniasi Bale wanted- Someone so busy, to have their effectiveness handicapped.
The framework of having the unit report directly to cabinet instead of Parliament is another farce. Q.B wants this Corruption unit, meet in closed sessions away from prying eyes. This another rape of good governance. I'd rather have the S.D.L Goverment have a Corruption Bill tabled and a Freedom of Information Bill, as opposed to this Reconciliation Bill.
Fiji Sun's Editorial comments on this corruption unit, some of Fiji Sun's views I found difficult in accepting without further and thorough research. Editorial article of Weds June 15th, 2005, focussing on this proposed corruption unit.
How dare these Ministers try and isolate themselves from public scrutiny. It is just another attempt by S.D.L Government to revamp its dispicable public image that has been tainted with corruption.
The S.D.L Government is using every trick in the book, to win support for the 2006 elections. But will the state treasury have money to last for the elections or is there funds for the 2006 elections?
Qarase Government overspends its budget perpetually( like money grows on trees), then Fiji must be using the wrong accounting software or have the wrong type of accontants in the Finance Department or simply too many I.O.U's by the Government. That is a wonderful leadership trait, which closely resembles the operations of ENRON.
Even Emperor Gold Mine, is feeling the pinch of the Bear market economy in Fiji.
Qarase continues his tirade of justifying his attempts to bulldoze this Reconciliation 'Bull' forward. Even after numerous legal scholars have presented their views on the ambigous nature of the wording. Qoroniasi Bale has been giving Qarase legal education of twisted logic.
Qarase performance in the Fiji P.M's office recently, just exemplifies "Arrogance".
More on the antiquated mindset of fortress mentality that these 'old farts' in Fiji civil service continue to subscribe to, which is oppossing free-enterprisein commerce.
How on earth do we remove such trailer trash, whose policies have entrapped the Fiji population from progress. Let's just kick them out of public office .
The objectors against this insane Reconciliation & Unity Bill, are reaching out for more overseas support. With Government revenues down, due to the stagnant economy, Fiji will eventually face more trade barriers.
I totally agree with the unions in acquiring their overseas counterpart's timely support.
Trade embargos will bring the Government to their feet. In justification, the S.D.L Government cannot continue to ride rough shed over the rights of Fiji citizens.
In todays global village everybody plays by the rules. If the S.D.L Government believes it is above these pillars of integrity, then it should have no qualms about people disagreeing with their policies or taking action against them.
As they say it takes two, to Tango.
Precisely the reason why, European Union has threatened to suspend FINANCIAL AID to Fiji unless this corrupt S.D.L Government abandons this Bill.
