Posted by PicasaIt is reprehensible that Fiji media fail to conduct their own in-depth academic research and most of their articles are basically constructed on the scraps of hear say.
Especially during their
sensationalism induced coverage of Fiji Army Commander's recent comments; which has shaken the core of
influential individuals, fearing another coup in Fiji.
Stuck in Fiji Mud stands firmly by the Commander's intentions to clean up the loose ends of the 2000 Coup.

Stuck in Fiji Mud is concerned on the following Fiji Sun article on the progress of Fiji General Elections and the issues raised by a N.G.O unhappy with the racial quotient of election enumerators officiating the registration process.
The Citizens Constitutional Forum is unhappy with the inconsistent registration of voters for the 2006 general elections. The CCF asks for a fair distribution of Indian and Fijian employees as enumerators.
According to the CCF, the number of Fijians registered up to December 2005 was 254823, against 165428 Indo-Fijians, a difference of almost 90000 persons. CCF says 434865 voters have been registered so far. “Since there has been no census, which is due at this time but has been postponed, we do not know how many more citizens are eligible to be registered as voters,” CCF executive director Akuila Yabaki says.
According to CCF numbers 468,630 citizens were registered in the 2001 election, 239,064 Fijians and 209,056 Indo-Fijians. And the registration of voters up to December 2005 showed an increase of Fijian registration to 254,823 but a decrease of Indo-Fijians registration by 44,428.
“We believe this is a reflection of the disproportionate number of Fijian enumerators employed by the Elections Office compared to Indo-Fijians,” Mr Yabaki says.
He demands that the Elections office tells the public how many Fijian enumerators have been employed compared to Indo-Fijians. “We have heard informally from Elections Office sources that there are more than 200 Fijian enumerators compared to only 20 Indians.” The CCF has also gathered that many of these Fijians were either relatives or friends of senior officers who recruited them.
The subject of skilled migration is hitting the pockets of leading business in Fiji and it is a pity that the
rate of turn over will not cease simply because of poor extrinisic working conditions that are not being rectified by the top management.
