Muddy Layer of Double Standards and Lip Service in Fiji Public Service.

The creepy R.T.U Bill continues to face ongoing opposition from all quarters in Fiji. That baseless comment from Foreign Affairs Minister on the benefit of democracy and how freedom of speech is practiced in Fiji is an indication of that. Certainly doesn't jive with the fact that the ancient order called Fijian Affairs Board only wants the Qarase's Government to brief the provinces on the Bill. Isn't that a contradiction? Politically Gate-keeping per se!
It is fortunate there are level headed individual within the Fiji Government like the learned Vice President- Ratu Joni Madraiwiwi who unravels the Race card that Qarase is wielding for political advantage in the eve of 2006 elections.
Well that's how Qarase runs things. Especially for these spoon fed, colonial babies like Fijian Affairs Board and Great Council of Chiefs really don't have any real financial sucesss to show the Fijian race, besides this addiction to colonial practices and cultural backward work ethics, that is an eternal drain to the Fiji's public treasury that can be better used for water and electricity problems for everyone.
Qarase's indicates the Bill may be amended is the signal of S.D.L/C.A.M.V's self-cavitation from public pressure locally as well as internationally.
Continued criticism against this grand Fijian coalition of political parties from the 'ivory towers' of elements who advocate social and racial segregation in Fiji politics.
The lack of money is hampering legal aid. This uncreative mind-set in Fiji Public service that is quite shocking. This problem is easily solved with a Law insisting ALL Lawyers be placed under a prescribed amount of time in hours; dedicated to 'pro-bono' work for Fiji's low income earners. This work program should administered by a special unit created within the Fiji Law Society and Fiji Justice Department. The costs should also be tax deductable in Fiji tax systems to be effective with a severe penalty, for defaulting Law firms.
Minister for Home Affairs, Vosanibola needs to check himself into a mental institution. He blames the Fiji media for creating this atmosphere of uncertainity regarding the R.T.U Bill highlights how far he is divorced from reality. S.D'L/C.A.M.V needs to re-examine their own agendas because they are neglecting the fact; that they are servants of the people. Not the other way around.

Be nice to the people on your way up because those are the same people, one will meet on your way down!

The issue with sticking to rules and laws is often taken lightly in Fiji by the very people who should be the pillars of society and yet are they very first ones breaking the same rules they just enacted.
Simple cause and effect, because there is No "Whistle blower" legislation or "Freedom of Information" laws as a mechanism for checks and balances. The absolute trust given to Fiji Government officials have been used and abused for too long. It should end now, to prevent the primary deviation from societal norms which gives rise to the erosion of Fiji's moral fibre leading to political instabilities like the cycle of coups seen in Fiji. The end result is anarchy as labelled by Military Commander; which this R.T.U Bill will definately be a catalyst for more calamity in Fiji.
The debate on living wages in Fiji in order to survive in the rising cost of living is needed urgently. Fiji's inability to create a datum of basic wage levels continues to drive the skill migration from Fiji's shores. These colonistic policies need to be be rebalanced to attract the best talent so that Fiji's economy can compete by creating world class products. Nickel and diming, won't do at all!
