Ro Teimumu says in his declaration dated February 24th 2015, Khaiyum stated the value of his Lot 13 DP 9206, CT 37186 at $80,000.
"However on August 29th 2006, a certified true copy of Transfer No 593802, shows that Khaiyum’s company Midlife Investments paid Faiyaz Koya, Sahim Arif Khan, Mohammed Altaf and Anwar Hussein the sum of $100,000 for the Lot.
"Hon Sayed-Khaiyum not only has to answer for the value discrepancy between $80,000 and $100,000. He appears to have also overlooked the fact that on November 17th 2010, Lot 12 right next to his own Lot, was sold by Mr Siddiq Faizal Koya through Transfer Certificate No 738461 for $170,000. The respective size of both Lots is the same, 1099 sq meters," Ro Teimumu said.
She says the discrepancy in the value must be viewed against the Provisions of the Political Parties Decree , specifically Sec 24 (1), (2) (a) (i) and then Sec 24 (3).
Ro Teimumu said Khaiyum is known for taking speedy action against people he wanted prosecuted including some Members of the Opposition.
She said it is obvious he deliberately delays cases that impact negatively on him or the government, like the police complaint made by former Fiji TV executive Tanya Waqanika against him.
Khaiyum has also still not provided the public with the relevant details of acquittals on how $100 million of public money was a spent.
Nor has he or the Prime Minister disclosed to the Public Accounts Committee details of payment of Ministerial salaries through the private accounting firm of Nur Bano Ali.

"As women of 70-74 years old can hardly have children, your solution is rubbish."
No, that's the whole idea of it. Too many kids around that parents don't want to look after, let alone afford to feed.
Females don't want to live in a village with stupid rules,they want modernisation.They will go to the city and get a rich man or someone who will take them out of the country.
How can you date in the village?you would get bashed or if you had many brother's they will bash the man you date.Village life is simply not attractive anymore for females.
@5:38 PM
Really? this is how it is in the villages?
@5:35 PM
So basically you think that villages are condemned?
What I don't like about villages generally speaking is that they look very ugly. In Samoa, villages are beautiful, the traditional architecture is still there. Even churches look beautiful, they are well painted with artwork displayed.
I believed women are more sensitive to beauty and comfort. They want to see beautiful things and villages in Fiji really look like dilapidated.
We need a very study from professors at USP on the current trend. In a shor period of 50 years (assuming that the current trend continues, which is realistic to think) most villages will be empty, with many dilapidated houses.
Maybe that is the ultimate price to pay for men for not being nice with women?
What is SODELPA gonna do about it? They should worry about it because villages are where they get their votes from...
Looking forward to the next census... in 2016 or 2017
Why can't Bainimarama order thousands of blow-up female dolls and send these to the villages? These hormone-charged village guys can play all day with their dolls, they're easy to carry around, and these dolls don't complain if the guy rams her too hard and fast. Since Bai likes China things, perhaps place an order for the China made ones.
In order for SODELPA to win the next elections, the voting age should be raised from 18 to 58 or so...
Bringing the voting age to 18 was a mastermind idea of Bhai... they knew perfectly well what the real
picture was in Fiji...
More voters in the countryside would mean more votes for SODELPA. It's that simple. Looking at the trends,
we can only wish good luck to the Rural Christian State...
In the olden days, people needed a permit to leave the village. People couldn't just move around as they please.
Today the people are free to move around. Families are breaking up as the old abuses are now exposed...
I predict that we will enter into a long transition period, where villages will get empty and a certain
form of culture inherited from the missionaries will slowly but surely vanish. The villages will get empty and the people will move to the
city. Their mindset will change completely, and many decades later when they will have money and education they
will buy properties and build holiday homes or small houses in their former vanua. Maybe some beautiful "villages"
will be build, but they will have an urban culture (no chiefs, church, etc...) It will be a new Fiji and that will be it.
Maybe the government will turn some small islands into national parks.
In light of those trends, we can only tell young rural men that they have a lot of work to do on themselves...
And they don't seem to even know it...
Also, villages are not safe for women, that is an issue I have heard often from educated urban women. The work load is never distributed fairly, women have to cook, fish, look after kids and husband, while men drink kava, sleep, do a little only bit of work, take decisions... how attractive is that for women?
Also, women want to wear short skirts and not been annoyed by thousands of young men who can't find a wife.
Freedom is priceless.
All that explain why a corrupt, incompetent, obscure government managed to get 60% of all votes in the last election. There are hardly any country in the world where you can see such percentages...
Reform the iTaukei culture or lose it altogether is the message here...
I propose to create a new political party: Fiji Free (FF) to fight Fiji First.
Fiji Free would be pro-freedom, of course. BUT would try to reform the village life so that they can stand the test of time.
Fiji Free manifesto should focus on:
1) Put an end to the de-facto dictatorship
2) Reform the village life by setting the new cultural framework
2.1 Set-up rules of aesthetic.
All villages should be beautiful. No ugly houses to be tolerated. Distance between houses to be increased.
Flowers and gardens compulsory.
2.2 Replace the system of local governance. Women should have the same rights as men and participate to discussions.
2.3 Set-up district committees to handle domestic abuses.
2.4 Set-up a punishment and reform island for men for mistreat women.
2.5 Force idle men to work in government work camps, so they could also learn some relevant skills.
2.6 Strictly control religious activities. Villagers should be free not to be part of any church. No yelling from talatala tolerated.
3) Put up incitives for people to start businesses in the countryside, especially for the youths after they leave school.
4) Setting up government businesses in villages as most villagers can't manage money very well. The government should accept the fact that it will have to actually bring the development instead of waiting for villagers or outsiders to come.
Fiji Free will reform the village lifestyle so that it can survive to the 21st century. Better villages means better life, better job opportunities, less crimes in the city.
Vote for Fiji Free!
Fiji Free should make Fiji Kava Free.
THE increase in primary school dropouts and teenage pregnancies in the Nadroga and Navosa region is an issue that reflects poorly on parenting.
Speaking at an International Labour Organization-organised child labour workshop last week, the vice president of the Soqosoqo Vakamarama Navosa, Lavenia Buresia Matavesi, said there was a surge in young girls ditching school and getting knocked up.
"I believe it is the failure of parents to supervise their children that has contributed to the noted increases in these areas," Ms Matavesi said.
Ms Matavesi, who is also the chairperson of the Sigatoka Inter-Agency Committee on Children, said this was a real issue because in a lot of cases, children were left to fend for themselves in the evening while their parents were engaged in kava drinking.
"They are not prioritising their children by putting their pleasure ahead of what is best for the family.
"They need to always monitor their whereabouts, check their homework and ensure they spend some time studying.
Ms Matavesi said parents had to invest time in their children instead of blaming others when issues arose.
"Parents are very quick to place the blame on schools, the internet and other social factors instead of addressing the underlying source of the problem."
@9:25 AM
What would be the cost of such a measure?
@9.30am Going wash the clothes,plant some dalo and cassava see I'm on my break time and you on the computer.Hurry up at 3 o clock you have to cook food for the afternoon.Stop wasting the Internet data you will run the bill up for hard working people.
@9:30 clothes already washed. Today we skip dinner, too much obesity in my family from eating too much starch like dalo and cassava.
I used to have a job you know! but after the coup I was laid off, my employer went bankrupt because of Bainimarama.
@Anonymous 10:07 PM
You have my vote !
Your winning proposal was item 2.6.
Perhaps even better would be to gather up all the narcissistic loud mouthed hate filled talatalas ship them to an outlying island and let them shout themselves to death.
This way everyone can have more peace and quiet, family life will improve and productivity in the country increase.
Anon@11.36AM. Cost would be enormous in favor of single village men.
1. They have a female to have fun with.
2. These men will be very happy to go home after planting cassava for a bang bang with Miss Plastic.
3. These men will be occupied at night instead of drinking yaqona all night.
4. Since they have partners now, they would be inclined to stay in the villages and be productive, in terms of farming.
Anon@10.07. Perhaps the villagers could agree to designated 'baby making' time three to four times a week. This way the couple will be inside the house banging away. The talatala will ring the bell to let the villagers know that it's time to get busy in bed, on the floor or wherever in the house they fancy.
@12:27 PM
you got it right. Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is an issue in religion.
if we look at the litterature, we find that narcissits are over-represented in religion.
the NPD is a form of mental illness, and it is somewhat frightening to think that these people are
"leading" our villagers.
Villagers are soooooooooo gullible too. They will swallow whatever those idiots say.
That explains why you can find 25 different churches in a single little town, sometimes a village!
I think that is a result of history. Warrior nations produce a lot of Bete and Baci. The Bete is often a weak man who can't be a Bati, but tries to control the Bati. Narcissists are weak people trying to build themselves a shield.
May Fijians break their own shakles!!!! FIJI FREE!!!! The land of FREEDOM, HOPE AND GLORY!!!
It wont be the first time in history where a people fight their LIBERATION WAR!!!
Anonymous 2:11 PM
Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) may be an apt description for what they suffer from but it's time something was done about them.
Word has it that if you prick one the resulting instant pressurised release of obnoxious gas is enough to affect worldwide climate change.
This is why they have a constant need to release their vile hate throughout the entire day without leaving more than a few hours for it to build to a dangerous level.
Anything new c45???
@2:31 PM
There is something new on www.http://portlandflag.org
US cities are now trying to get rid of their bad flags.
"2015 may well be the Flag Year", the author said.
When a country faces a crisis, like in Fiji where we want to get our freedom, then a new flag can
become a symbol for us to rally around. No cross please, let's stand on our own!
Freeeeeeeeeeeeeedom!!!
Now let's talk more about flags!!!!!
Ok, so the quicker we get a new one the better.
How about one with a symbol of a talatala hung by the balls.
@2:47 PM
no religious symbols, including talatala hanging by the balls.
Remember the rules: no pictograms, not too many gay colors, no seals.
a good flag shoud INSPIRE us to turn the page on our past!
That's it,
A picture of a book with it's page being turned, well done sir.
Thank you Fijileaks and Victor Lal for updating us of the atrocities of the 2000 mutinee to the soldiers and crw who lost their lives and to those who ordered the killings and still walking free today like Bainimarama himself. ..justice will visit them. There's no place to hide and flee to as every men is responsible for his actions.
Whats happening?
An Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Service is expected to be established by the Salvation Army in Suva early next year.
Divisional Commander of The Salvation Army, David Noakes says it has been clearly evident that alcohol and drug abuse and addiction has increased to worrying levels within Fiji.
He says significant concern is particularly focused on the young as the at risk group who carry significant risk factors with the increasing availability of addictive substances both legally and illegally.
1.45pm Kamlesh Kumar
What about those who aren't married yet and to villages that have no women in them.
How can they make babies when the bell rings?
@Anonymous 3:09 PM
Its not any surprise is it.
The police have ignored both the drug and alcohol problem for so long its now out of hand.
Drive around the suburbs of Suva any night and you will find groups of youths, both male and female on the roads drunk and drugged out of their brains knowing there's no one to stop them.
Where's the police?
@Anonymous 3:18 PM
Theres enough babies already, those who have no woman can become talatalas.
ITA A WONDER THAT WE IN THE PACIFIC CONTINUE TO BE INSULTED BY BOTH LOCALS AND NON LOCALS WITH WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW
HONIARA, 03 NOVEMBER 2015 (SIBC) --- The mining sector has the potential to deliver positive development to Solomon Islands‟ economy and improve the lives of people according to the World Bank.
Speaking at a National Mining Forum in Honiara, World Bank‟s mining manager, Christopher Sheldon said mining can improve livelihoods and help share wealth.
Sheldon said stakeholders need to work together to address concerns over environment damage, lack of shared benefits and policies.
He said there needs to be dialogue and cooperation between landowners, companies and government and policies need to be in place and regulated by the government.
Its apparent from the discussion on villages that those engaged in the discussion seem to detest these villages and villagers & insults fly left right and centre bordering on racism and bias.
What is forgotten is that the villager is the one who approves the 99 year Native Leases which will make up the majority residential lease as land runs out for crown and freeholds.
Guess who will give you land ?? yes the villager! BUTT HEADS!!
@Anonymous 4:13 PM
But why is that article an insult?
@3.09 Is David Noakes still wet behind the ears? Clearly someone has recently taken him on a night out.This is nothing new,in the last 9 years the youths have decayed away.First came the massage sex parlors,than alcohol followed by the cultivation of cannabis,smuggling of ice then came mobile phones and computers access to hardcore and extreme pornography.The old days of prostitution on the roadside and softcore pornography megazines,black market beer has slowly become non existence.These days is all about networking hooking up in groups,booking hotel rooms and ringing your friend who knows another friend and that friend will bring someone who knows someone that can supply.Did you see the last weekend flew by.That Saturday night was filled with idiot youths brawling in clubs on to the street,fat ugly drunk women fighting over bullshit gossiping and who fucked her man and who's turn it is to going doggy style on the seawall.It's a dumb generation filled with idiots who have no life's.
@Anonymous 4:18 PM
Are you suggesting that the 'owners' of the land actually need or have to live on that land to be able to lease it?
I think you are a bit confused due to your train of thought simply being to get racism and bias mentioned somewhere in your comment.
@4.23pm hahahahaha the age group you would refer to is 18-35year Olds this age group is one horny generation they will fuck anything that moves I'm in that demographics and believe me from experie ce Fijian women today will jump on the vudi.
@4:30 PM
can you tell us more about your experience?
@Anonymous 4:23 PM
Some call it progress, it's nothing new it's been happening for years it's just getting worse.
What is does suggest is that there's lots of spare cash around.
What has not progressed at the same rate is the ability of the authorities to recognise how to control it. It was ignored and left to the church and cultural systems to look after for far to long but was way out of their league.
Expect it to get worse as it's breeding outside of the towns as well.
4:18 PM
what's freehold land got to do with it?
freehold is freehold, no?
Villages have a future if the villagers can find a way forward.
It will have to come from them partly, but they will need a direction from the government.
@Anonymous 4:50 PM
You are right that the villagers need to find a way forward and whilst they can be helped with direction they also need to make some effort themselves.
Ask the youngsters why they want to leave the village life and their main concern is that they are too controlled by antiquated systems and the church that has strived to starve them of the ability of adapting to the modern world.
If both the church and village elders had recognised the outside world earlier a slow rate of adaption to it would have helped.
If the villages can not keep the younger generation happy the villages will die.
Youths flee rural life because of bright lights and freebies. They are lured to the cities and towns not because of their hate of tradition and religion but by a system which robs them the right to enjoy life in the rural. Crimes rise because that's what city life is all about. Vucesa is the indirect result of freebies that the city is offering
Anyway who hates village life? Fishing is fun. Hunting is fun. Collecting firewood is fun. Community gathering is exciting. Going to the forest is exciting and adventurous. Building is fun. Choir practice, attending church service , cultural functions and community work are roles. They are imbeded in us because we are born into it. Even though I live in the city I still go back to my village to enjoy its beauty , stay connecteand and take part in my community.
Why are most bloggers here blaming the talatala, the chiefs and vanua for problems in the city. Why are all talatala and chiefs get the blame for the misdeeds of one or two. While passing judgement and ridiculing the institutions they represent( talatala for the church and chief for the vanua) please be reminded that the church has been in Fiji for more than 150 years and had been instrumental in building Fiji to where it is today so that strangers from strangeland are able to come and share in it's beauty. That also goes with the chief. Without the chief land is not free .
@7:38 PM
"a system which robs them the right to enjoy life in the rural. "
which system are you referring to?
the talatala wants $$$$$$$ , prestige and so on.
that's why religion is such a burden on the youth.
it's a system of exploitation.
iTaukeis should be free from anything that makes them unhappy.
@Anonymous 7:38 PM
You say ""Crimes rise because that's what city life is all about""
What a strange perception of the city you have.
I think you have really answered yourself why the youth want to leave the villages by saying,
""Choir practice, attending church service , cultural functions and community work are roles.""
Sadly these roles do little to prepare the youth for a future where they can at least feel equal and compete with the big wide world.
I do not think any bloggers are blaming the talatalas and chiefs for the problems of the city it's just that their inability to adapt to modern life has disadvantaged the young so unfairly.
So the church has been in Fiji for 150 years, I suggest it's common sense that is far more significant in making Fiji where it is today not religion.
Do any of you read our new constitution? Everybody has the right to freedom of movement and residences. So if young people don't want to live in the villages then so let it be!.If they like the clubs,big lights,alcohol, late night parties and a job then so it be!.They can leave for what ever reason whether the village life not for them it can be for any reason.
May be they need pubs and clubs next door to their villages,big shops and gaming arcades,socialising with opposite sex,BBQ stalls,candy floss etc etc.May be they want to petition for these things but have been restricted so they run away.
Anyways its time for everybody to go to bed some people got jobs and chores to attend to in the morning. Good night make sure you all lock the house up the robber might come in the dark try empty the fridge the poor bastards.
9.51.
Strange perception? Crimes in this land are committed in the city. Take a visit to the main prisons and jails. 95% of convicts are city offenders.Most crimes are commited by someone completely unknown by the victim , a bad example of city life where people living together but hardly know each other.

" which system are you referring to?"
A system which drives them away from breathing fresh air, healthy living , eating fresh foods, no house mortgage, less air pollution , less or no tv and computer to watch porn, excetra and excetra.
City is both good and bad. It feeds you more opportunities to development and progress yet at the same time bites you back.
10.32pm
Wake up and go to work! Still hangover from last night in the pub. Head straight to work and no stopover at your favourite physician to purchase a sick sheet. What a fake exciting life brought about by this stinking ilegal constitution. Everything is corrupt..living, eating, sleeping, clothing, transportation, education, health, work, leisure, leadership and so on.
And so the blockhead prime minister of Fiji continue to embarrassed
us all by telling Australia not to use Coal? And when did we last use
Coal to heat up our Furnish in the winter? or barbercue a Pig from our
Lovo?or stop selling the frieken Coal to China? My God no wonder Khaiyum is very busy doing the work of 10 individuals including his
post when he's pissing around elsewhere?
@6:01 AM
Australians, amongst other, are consuming too much. They have too big houses, too many cars, too much crap.
All that comes to a cost for the planet.
In that respect,mit is perfectly acceptable to ask rich countries to decrease the consumption of everything.
They don't need to eat that much meat, etc...etc... all that becomes a threat to us in the Pacific.
I also think that Bainimarama is eating too much (he put up a bit of weight in the last 8 years!) and pollutes too much
when he goes to London to watch a useless rugby game that will bring nothing to Fiji.
@1:11AM
the thing is that a smart person would move to the city when required, like to get an education, THEN go back to the village
to start a business. Of course TV is crap, I agree, and most people would use technology in a very superficial manner like
watching porn. If there was some sort of intellectual stimulation, they would read great philosophers, learn how to program
by themselves, create electronic artwork and sell it overseas, etc...etc...etc... you are mixing up 2 things here.
A dumb man will always be a dumb man no matter how much technology you give him or her, but a smart person will
make good use of it. Fijians need computers and need to open their mind to science and litterature!!!!!
At the end of the day, we are each responsible of our own lives. One problem in a communal society is that
everybody thinks it's someone else's business...
@Anonymous 8:56 PM
How about the cost to the planet of Fiji polluting the ocean around it, it's black smoke belching busses, its uncontrolled burning of household refuse.
Per capita Fiji's more than likely a far greater offender than Australia.
What the fuck have I just read?have you forgotten the country has 40,000+ university graduates without a job?Fijians have already done all the above and are just waiting on a daily basis for someone to give them the opportunities to utilize their skill set.
Many were hoping government would build strong bridges with 1st world nations and recruit graduates to work overseas on employment programs.Instead they got cherry picking programs haaaa it's a fucking joke.
What we need is job creation in these fields civil engineering,computer science,marine biologists and marine engineering,environmental science,medical practitioners and surgeons,Aviation,mechanical manufacturing etc etc.We already have qualified people but do not have experience and they are all dying to gain quality experience.We will continue to lose them if we don't act now.
@8.56 You study anthropology or something?You sound like you love walking naked in a field of greenery lol.Do you believe in evolution?Do you believe you evolved from monkeys?
@Anonymous 11:42 PM
""Fijians have already done all the above (whatever you are referring to) and are just waiting on a daily basis for someone to give them the opportunities to utilize their skill set.""
Waiting on a daily basis for someone to give them........................
Now how often do we hear that.
@11.42 Are you referring to getting a job?Are you jobless like the many people who are commenting on here since 1am?My advice to you is don't give up go to international agencies or apply online till you succeed don't rely on government and freebies.
Woooo my goodness look at all the house girls and garden boys,you have lots of time on your hand's eh?yes I will agree with 12 04.When you start depending on government and the freebies it will eventually become a HABIT! and when it's a habit it grows into a ADDICTION!.Why not work scrubbing public toilets or cut grass for the SCC and save some pocket money for that big opportunity to go overseas and work there?Remember we tax payers are very tired of paying into the system for the lazy.Also government wants to know all our assets and savings so the bastards can tax us for their Friday and Saturday night binge drinking,don't tell me you never seen politicians today in pictures popping $100 bottles of whiskey and $1000 wine's.That's my tax money their plus all the hard workers.SAY NO TO FREEBIES.
I was beginning to believe that the Fiji Military Forces had changed its attitude a become a credible part of the future of Fiji.
The fact that they did not cooperate with the Police and DPP shows how sadly we have been deceived.
TheR FMF have obstructed the course of justice once again and certainly cannot be trusted.
They are just a bunch of hooligans in a uniform. Lost all respect and dignity.
NEVER TO BE TRUSTED AGAIN.
Yes. The Military Forces are just shit heads.
Protected Pita Matairavula is beyond comprehension.
Lost all my respect as well.

From one Fiji paper today ............
This month the Methodist community in Fiji will be focusing their prayers and attention to the upcoming United Nations COP21 Climate Change meeting in Paris and to what more they can be doing as part of their responsibility towards the planet we live on.
In a statement over the weekend, Church president Reverend Dr Tevita Nawadra Banivanua said: "Creation is groaning from our mistreatment and we are suffering as a result of humankind's selfishness towards the earth................
Let us hope they can do this quietly without inflicting more suffering on the people by the selfish actions of there raving talatalas.
@11:42 AM
the problem is that out of that 40000+, there a lot of "false graduates".
Universities HAVE TO give diplomes even to those who should fail. Very few graduates are actually competent according to what I have heard from the coconut wireless. Now they even want to lower admission rates to 50%. iF you get 50% as an "input" , what domyou expect as the "output"? Look at our factories and you will be surprised how many really qualified workers are Filipinos or Chinese and so on...
So don't forget that our villagers have to KICK THEIR ASSES in Uni if they want to work later.
If reAl skills were obtained, what you prevent them to start a business?
@11:56 AM evolution is not a "belief" but a fact, there is nothing more to say. Do some reading, lazy! Australians should walk more and lose some fat, that would save some fuel!
Thank you Fiji Methodist Church for taking a leading role in advocating climate change . You continue to sound the trumpet in the wilderness for stupid selfish idiot like anon 1.43pm to hear and do something positive and useful to our planet instead of spilling filth and stench venom upon the beautiful creation that we live in and where the church is built upon . Anon 1 43 is a fine example of a lost sheep who needs to be escorted back to the greener pastures and prayer is all she/he needs. Thumbs up Rev Dr Nawadra.
@3:15 PM
At least the comment at 1:43 PM makes sense whereas your over-active imagination reading filth, stench and venom into it is way over the top.
Lets guess, you are one of these raving talatalas?
Sounds like you need to find your own sheep.
The issue of unemployment in Fiji is quite deceiving. I own a business and one of the hardest things to do is to find adequately qualified people to work. The medium sized business in Fiji cannot employ graduates at best they may have a couple of diploma holders doing accounting and maybe IT work. We are a retail store business and we require people to start from doing basic work which no body wants. They have to work their way up to Senior staff level and than to management. The type of business i have does not require a Diploma to work in it let alone a Degree and even if it did no tertiary institute in Fiji can train you to a specific industry. When we look for employees we get a very large percentage of folks with Diplomas, Degrees or are in the process of getting one and we simply cannot afford these folks. Sadly this is a problem for a lot of businesses. No body wants to work their way up. Everybody wants to become the boss tomorrow and industry simply does not work this way. I believe their is a lot of work in Fiji one just has to put his or her head down and do it instead of looking for the best job in the world according to their set perimeters.

..yes the article on 1 43 makes sense, not the personal ranting which followed .You negate the article with your attack on the people who are doing what you and I must be doing to protect our planet. Is the church doing the right thing here or not?
Matairavula is one of PM bodyguard who always wanted to be a hero when come to arrest someone , but now he taste his own medicine, why take shelter and hide in the barracks? Its shows his big ass-hole . and as a warrant Officer he should lead by example. So don't commit a crime if you cant pay your time in prison, I wish him well but if he goes to jail..he will be a safe custody cell block or otherwise prisoner is going to fuck and root his ass, and he will become a Gay , kua na lamusona tiko..BOCI!!!!
Beeeeeeheheheheheheheee,what's this graduate's jobless well in this day and age you can wipe your ass with that piece of paper because it means fark all in the real world.There is an alternative though.Sell yourselves to a tourist and hope they take you overseas that's your golden ticket out of here.
@4.06 not surprised couple days back I went to see the court hearing of those coward torturers even they tried to hide themselves from the media cameras.Like what are you ashamed off now?You wasnt ashamed showing the world degrading another human why try to hide now in cuffs?
@Anonymous 4:01 PM
How can criticising or questioning the way that some of these talatalas go about their work negate the purpose (the content of the article) of what they are doing?
Balling and shouting at people is something we certainly would not accept from a teacher in a classroom when they are trying to pass on knowledge to children for two reasons. Firstly it is not an effective way of getting someone's attention enabling knowledge retention and secondly it would interfere with the class next door, disadvantaging them.
The comments have nothing to do as to whether it is the right or wrong thing for any institution to get involved in affairs that concern them.
Haha hahaha who the fuck said Evolution is a fact?hey dick head some scientists will say it's a fact and some say it's a theory so the answer is debatable and still searching for the real actual answer block head.Your the type that will read anything and believe it.What dumb black monkey your probably still a homo erectus.

4 30..whats the purpose of posting this article when all you do is posting your negative view of the church instead of commenting on the subject .You rant around the bush to justify your point. ..no! It stinks. .
anyway this article had already been posted here by someone few days ago .Scroll back to read it to prove that you're lagging behind on current news and you're not living in Fiji.
@Anonymous 5:14 PM
Of course, negative views about the way something is done 'stink'.
Lets all repeat......... no negative views allowed, especially when the church is the subject.
Oh wow the monkey brain has evolved and actually has learned the feelings of taking pleasure.No thanks I have a life I don't need to sit on my ass all day on a computer watching apes evolve.;) I'll go explore nature and what it has to provide in the actual outdoors rather then indoors, so good bye.
THE Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions yesterday successfully opposed the bail application of a soldier on assault charges on the grounds he was evading arrest by being at military barracks where police were refused entry.
However, Pita Matairavula's lawyer Mehboob Raza said reports that his client was on the run was not true.
Mr Matairavula, one of the five accused in the alleged assault of Iowane Benedito, appeared before Magistrate Charles Ratakele at the Nasinu Magistrates Court.
State lawyer and Assistant Director of Public Prosecution Michael Delaney said there was a risk of Matairavula not complying with bail.
In his objection to bail, Mr Delaney said police had gone to Matairavula's residence following a directive from the Commissioner of Police and senior officers to charge the five accused persons. Officers were told by his wife that he had gone to the shop to buy bread but he did not return.
Mr Delaney claimed that Matairavula was evading arrest since October 21 and was at the military barracks where police officers were denied entry.
He added that police took a sensible position and went to the Lautoka High Court on October 28 where the accused was facing a similar charge.
Police were told Matairavula would be brought to Suva to face his charges, which did not happen. Mr Delaney continued that Matairavula had waited for his co-accused persons to be granted bail and then he surrendered himself to the police.
Officer in charge of the investigations Inspector Semi Senitiri took the witness stand and informed the court of their attempts to arrest Matairavula.
Mr Raza asked the court to grant bail to Matairavula on the grounds that was married with two children, a class one warrant officer, had no previous convictions and has his own property in Kinoya.
The defence lawyer also told the court that a media report saying his client had ammunition and was on the run from police was not entirely true.
He added there was no attempt by police to arrest Mataraivula who had voluntarily surrendered himself to police.
Matairavula has been remanded in custody to await Magistrate Ratakele's decision on his bail application on November 13. A video of five persons assaulting Benedito went viral on social networks two years ago, which prompted police investigations.

Even if there is no porno in that video, it's very interesting.
Don't be afraid by the truth.
@Anonymous November 4, 3:15 PM
That's a good idea of yours, we should all do something useful for our planet. So we could start the day with a prayer for the lost sheep and hope they can find greener pastures.
Let us pray for those children of Fiji who are sitting their year 12 school exams this week. Let us pray that they stay awake in class and hope with all our heart they achieve the exam results they deserve to help pave the way for their future on this planet.
Let us also pray for forgiveness for those lost sheep who have for a third night in a row beat their lali all night whilst praying to some God that cares so little about the children of Fiji and their future role in looking after this planet.
Editor,
This all is getting so serious. People are posting reasoned arguments without enough swear words. Does not suit this blog.
Where is that idiot who hounds Renee Lal?
Can C.45 update us on those torturers,it is of public interest.How many years of jail time will these subhuman's serve?The papers say they been charged with sexual assault but it should be more then that.What about charging them with actual body harm,torture with intentions to do Harm with an object,indecent assault,sexual assault,attempt murder,perverting the course of justice,encouragement of an animal to commit violence etc etc it should be 12 years behind bars if this happened overseas.Also that police dog will be put down.Where in any police k9 unit training manual it demonstrates the dog handler shall set upon the canine to bite a human who is unarmed,handcuffed and stationary sitting on solid ground?were these escapees read out their rights whilst re-arrested?Let's see how this court upholds the law and put this Constitution to the test.

Hello fellow bloggers, what's the latest on the shortage of females in the villages?
Well I hear the government is going to set up a Ministry for Men and one of its first jobs will be to set up a task force training group to undertake cooking lessons for village male youth.
Opposition: Fiji Military Appointment A Sham
Military chief contract extended without commission input
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (Radio New Zealand International, November 3, 2015) – The Fiji opposition leader says the chief of Fiji's military forces has had his contract extended without the proper input from a key commission. Commodore Viliame Naupoto has been acting commander since August when Mosese Tikoitoga stepped down. Ro Teimumu Kepa, who serves on the Constitutional Offices Commission, says Commission members were given an hour to approve an extension to Commodore Naupoto's contract on Friday. They were also asked to approve a draft advertisement for the commander position. She says as of nine o'clock on Monday morning, she was aware of only three of the six Commission members responding by email with their approvals. Ro Teimumu says commission members have been treated with contempt by the Commission's secretariat. She says the Commission, which is created under the constitution, must be treated with respect and is not a rubber stamp of the government.

Waste of money and foolish idea. Aren't there any important and greater need for the govt to undertake than this? Each community Fiji wide has men, women and youth groups existed for over 70years. Why create a separate govt ministry when all they can do is support the existing ones with quarterly programs. Assign this program to an existing ministry and work with religious/church organization who had these groups in their denomination. Conduct.training programs and awareness for all not only for men Why don't they embark on a major program involving the negative impact of drinking kava which is affecting men's ability to FUNCTION in every human aspect. LAZY or, VUCESA has a negative effect on health, family, marriage ,economy , progress, etc. Said to see that Kava consumption are encouraged in both taukei and Indo community I've seen parents (dad ) proudly/ pridefully , in everyones presence gave a baby and toddler a sip of kava . This is what the govt should embark on. Ministry of health can be tasked to do this. And to do this, govt representatives must be role models themselves. They can't be seen as preaching against kava consumption in these communities but drink kava in their own homes, traditional and religious gathering or work places .
1.51pm...a sham indeed.
Is there real democracy in Fiji? Rule of thuggery still prevail and very much alive in this regime.
My question to the boys, warriors, in Delainabua. Has anyone got strong balls than Franks defecated pants to stop the appointment of a naval officer to be the commander of the RFMF? Tikoitoga's balls are just the same as Driti, Mara and others. Seems like the seamen have better balls up there in camp.

@7:37 PM
one lecturer at USP told me that the institution could actually be closed in 10 years time.
most students can't put a sentence together.
many students can at best learn to repeat what's written in their books. they don't understand much of it.
most lack basic general knowledge. it's actually unbelievable...
no wonder the business sector is turning a blind eye on them... who would hire an economist who hasn't got a clue where Greece is? that is the reality...
time to start studying and working hard...
otherwise the land is waiting for you...
@7.37pm Do you understand that your country lacks the actual skill set to run departments? Whether it is a public or private sector entity.The average citizen of Fiji does not have the actual brain capacity to perform complex tasks.You can send them to university and give them the fruit of knowledge but yet they will still have difficulties grasping and understanding the concepts,models and theory's.It would take over 20years to develop their mindsets.Your prime minister has openly admitted this,that citizens of Fiji are so guliable that they will believe anything that they are told and have it rammed down their throats without thinking for themselves.You will just have to wait till you have evolved into a homo saipan and able to use that brain processing powers.Your first lesson can be ACCEPTANCE that's what your good at so swallow a good dose of it and grip the idea of it.:)
Agree with 7.37pm. USP is a joke now. FNU is a joke now too. No one cares for education or quality. They flow with what most students want, which is to pass them. Where lecturers are strict and demand quality, they are pushed out by management which is scared students who fail will go to Baiyum. If the reign of terror by Baiyum continues longer, Fiji will have uneducated degree holders.
So what you are saying is that, if there is a person from Fiji and goes USP or FNU and has a degree, then he should not be given any other ways of trying to get a job his qualified to do.He should probably go work on the land because businesses don't want him ever because his dumb and does not have the brain capacity even though his invested money into a university course for his future and graduated with a degree or master's.So he ends up living on the streets?Offered no job,You want a so-called dumb person to get kicked out there, go and live out on the streets, rob people to have money and buy food with it, rape women so that he can have sexual pleasure because, number 1, no girl wants to marry him because his been told his dumb and illaterate who does not have the brain capacity even though having a university education, and number 2, he can't afford to get a prostitute because it is illegal and even if it wasn't illegal, then the rates are too high? You want a person who according to you fails the country, to become an outcast and cause problems to others and even add himself to the poverty rate of Fiji? That is just what you want, isn't it? You only think about yourself and about you getting a good job. You have made no mention of how to actually help the so-called dumb people but to say "going work the land". Just because you have good life, you think that everyone should be able to perform to your level.Your nothing but a narcissistic selfish fuck face troll haaaaaaa.
@8:32 PM
Humans share but little differences in DNA. 99.9% plus the same.
(http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/1416706/DNA-survey-finds-all-humans-are-99.9pc-the-same.html)
"All humans are 99.9 per cent identical and, of that tiny 0.1 per cent difference, 94 per cent of the variation is among individuals from the same populations and only six per cent between individuals from different populations."
Where there is a HUGE difference, it is in the culture. Fijians have inherited of an authoritarian way of living. Children not allowed to ask questions, not intellectually stimulated by parents who are not themselves able to understand their role, domestic violence, etc. Huge rates of anemia also affecting the development of the children's brain. A culture where people think that getting the job is all that matters, but with no interest in doing the job. Lack of general interest in anything outside of the usual...rugby, church, army, etc.
The Fijian culture was entirely geared towards war, war and war. The culture end up in a sort of pitfall, and now Fijians have to rebuild their own castle. It will take some time maybe, but the first step is to recognize there is a problem.
Genetics is not an issue. Culture is.
The best thing to do is to show solidarity with Fijians and help them to change SOME of their ways of thinking, while preserving what is good and even taking some pages from their book.
You are totally ignoring the fact that there are many intelligent students in Fiji who are unable to pick the subjects that they like and are interested in doing simply because they are at a location and attend a school that doesn't offer a choice. A student who does English and Maths and is good at Accounting, Economics and Computer Studies may go to a school that does not offer any of the subjects that he is good at and instead he is forced to pick Technical Drawing, Woodwork and Hindi along with English and Maths. Now just because the student is poor and cannot move to a place and rent there so that he can attend a school that offers the subjects that he is good at, he fails his external exam because he was forced to do subjects that he wasn't good at. He was made to study things that first of all he wasn't interested in, secondly he wasted his whole year and money on it. This isn't about the student being weak in school and neither is it about him trying not hard enough. It is about him being forced to do things that he wasn't good at, and then when he fails, he gets accused of being a dumb student who wasn't trying hard enough and if any attempts were made to scale up his marks so that he has a chance of studying what he truly wanted, then criticisms are made about the scaling system and he is seen as a parasite.
I have seen this whole process of a student being denied a good education and a possible luxury life that he could have had through his hard work at university and later his profession because he was forced to do a course that he wasn't good at, and he failed it a hell lot of times, and was kicked out of university. He ended up not completing his university degree and neither does he have any qualification in life. He can't afford to go back to change his program and do something else at university because he is too poor, and he isn't good at anything else apart from what he originally was studying.
The above mentioned situation took place and happened to my close friend during my time at USP. He was an intelligent kid and was very broad minded. He used to give ideas about running businesses that no one else could think of - simply because he always thought outside the box, while all the other so-called smart student (true NERDS!) only answered questions in the exam with whatever ideas they got from the books. He was good at all the theory courses under Management studies but two of the courses required him to take management course that were all about calculations. Unfortunately he wasn't good at calculations and failed such units a lot of times. As a result, he was kicked out of university and now due to the reasons mentioned in the previous paragraph, he can't achieve a degree in his life and lives the life of a poor person.
So does this mean that my friend is a dumb student? Does it mean that he wasn't a hard worker? What if he had a disability where there was a condition that made him unable to do calculations, but still he was able to do theory? Does it mean that he is a parasite? Does it mean that he is an undeserving person?
Do you realize that most so-called smart students only know what they have read from the books and fail in real life? Do you realize that these are the people who are normally given employment because they scored high marks and good grades because they were NERDS, yet they have no knowledge of how to do a job properly? These are the people who are given employment at various organizations because they are believed to be smart by looking at their good their good grades, yet they have no knowledge of how to answer a simple telephone call from a customer. They are the people who only work for money and show off that they work at a "big organization".
Take for example, a person who is the customer rep at Sky Pacific (Fiji TV) who answers the calls made by subscribers. Now this person was employed because she was a smart student, yet she is unable to answer any questions asked by the subscribers and gives replies as: "...that's confidential...". However when another customer rep answers the call who is at the same employment level as her (not senior), she is able to provide all explanations and details about the Sky Pacific without actually having to give out any information that in reality was "confidential".
Another real life example: a person working at a senior level at ANZ was unable to answer my questions. Why? Simply because she never let me complete my questions and starts answering when I am in the middle of it. Banks are organizations that employ people who have good grades and good GPA, yet these are people who really aren't fit for the job. They lack communication skills. They have no telephone answering skills. And they are the "smart ones" who always had good marks and grades. They are the most narrow minded people around.
And YOU my friend, are one of those narrow minded people. I couldn't give a flying fuck of what you claim to be whether your a senior aircarft engineer for Aerospace company in Canada or economist for RBF, yet you only see one side of the issue. You have completely ignored to recognize the truly deserving students, and only see things from the point of view of NERDS! You only defend NERDS, because you are one of those NERDS! All NERDS end up at Aerospace, NASA and Microsoft. Now don't tell me about all that stereotyping and prejudice bullsh!t so that you are able to hide yourself from being exposed as a NERD! You are a person who probably studied science, yet you talk about nation building - something that a commerce graduate (truly intelligent student, not bookworm NERD) has broad knowledge of. Here is a piece of information: "smart students", or NERDS are the least productive workers. They hardly have originality, nothing innovative, and they are the ones how bring down the potential growth of business because they do everything for only themselves and think only for the present. They never think anything about the future, they are unable to predict future trends and they are happy with the job they have and what they earn. They are cowards who don't think of expending or growing. The most innovative people are the average students and that is the fact. NERDS only spend their lives burying their heads in books. The biggest example is you - this is because most Fiji Indians who have migrated out of Fiji to the so-called developed countries, only work to earn money and pay their bills.They have no other goals or even if they do have goals, it is for short term. Now here is another piece of information: Australian, New Zealand, United Kingdom, American or Canadian education isn't recognized in Fiji either. Why? Because it is below Fijian standards. Before coming up with your narrow minded bullsh!t, ask yourself, are the Accounting standards of USA and Canada accepted in Fiji? NO, because every country has different Accounting standards.
You are a perfect example of a NERD because you have been displaying your narrow minded views. You fail to see all sides of an issue.
Read this and enlighten yourself, loser. Try to see what broad minded views other average people have apart from what NERDS like you come up with.Its time for you to stop being a Homo erectus and playing the monkey game and get real!.

@10:40
you should refrain from taking a particular case like your friend. We are talking about the big picture here.
One may not be good in maths but have a lot of ideas, for sure. But that is also true anywhere else in the world.
Not being able to go where you want is also an issue all around the world, but one can develop many skills and interests.
If I was was running a large business with someone not good in calculus even though he has "great ideas", I would be concerned...
One should have many skills, not just "one" and behave like a baby when not happy.
The problem in Fiji is that you can't assume that all students in economics didn't chose economics,
that all students in science didn't chose science. yet the results are often disastrous. C C C C D D D D B B C B
I could do the same "mistake" as you did to take a particular case of someone who liked/chosed Economics but
didn't perform AT ALL to show a point. I once met a student doing a MASTER in Economics who couldnt locate some of the major countries in the world. Between you and I, is that normal?
There are a lot of incompetent/ non-intellectual people going to UNi now... and they really expect to find a job? forget about creating your own job with those skills?
the guy above who complained that "even though a dumb guy has spent money he doesn't get a job" should understand the cold truth: money will not buy yourself skills. YOU HAVE TO WORK HARD! Money and prayers won't help. Work, study and get passionned and interested by the big world. Move on and believe in yourself!
One might be born a chief, but one is not born an academic. You have to work your way up.
@10:40 PM
"Do you realize that most so-called smart students only know what they have read from the books and fail in real life? "
Oh yes my friend I understand that! Most people are somewhat unable to create, think forward, imagine new things. They are only good at sitting down and applying some "dumb" skills in a particular context. In Fiji, you see a lot of it! a lot!!! but also overseas.
Here the point is to compare Fiji with say Japan or USA. Where is the hardworking japanese attitude at USP?
Even the local professors are often lazy, not interested etc... I ve heard it over and over from visiting academics...
no research, no nothing.... Wadan Narsey acknowledges that very clearly...
My message to Fiji youth: if you can't make it to UNI, don't worry. There are plenty other honorable ways to earn a living, one of them could be to start a famiky business making honey, growing spices, creating new products. one doesn't always need a degree!
I know a man who became millionnaire and he didn't know how to read! the funny thing was that he bought a newspaper company. amazing...
don't let failures stop you, but if you do go to UNI, then be prepared to understand it's not a kindergarden or a church, and things won't fall from the sky. You have to work and study hard.
@11:01 PM
you are quite a weird person.
I am asking you to look at the big picture, yet you are giving really specific examples.
And funny enough, they prove my point!!! Your ANZ or Sky Pacific incompetent staff is exactly the product of that cultural system of "who gives a shit anyway"? In your world, there are dumb nerds and competent idiots. Talk about "narrow minded views".
You can hide your lack of real arguments behind the word "nerd" as much as you please, but that won't solve the problem we see in Fiji.
I once asked a visiting academic what would be the marks students would get in Japan for his course.
He said half would fail, a quarter would get a C, which is an honorable passing mark, the rest Bs. No As. So 75% have got nothing to do in UNI. Now they want to lower admission rate at 50%. Come on, you have lost the argument...
Without a surprise, Japan's "nerds" are doing better than "imaginative"Fijians. They are also polite and know how to answer a phone (that seems to be very important to you...)
Time to wake up kid.
*To provide the best opportunities for all Fijians to achieve their maximum potential through education and training so that there will be a place and role for every Fijian.
**To foster an environment for healthy economic growth in which workers have the best prospects for employment, earning sustainable wages, and lifting living standards
***To encourage the participation of Fijian workers as partners together with business and government in fostering economic growth and development of Fiji
****To promote and foster common and equal citizenry
Just to remind readers these are the few objectives set out to be achieved by Fiji first.
@11:01 PM
"The most innovative people are the average students and that is the fact. NERDS only spend their lives burying their heads in books."
You seem to be suggesting that Fiji students have A LOT OF IMAGINATION (that is something new to me) and that they are soooooo smart but they never open a book (I am not talking about the Bible) as they could become du,b nerds.
I really wonder how Japan, Europe and USA managed to design those computers and Facebook you love so much...
Bloody nerds like Mark Zukenberg!!!!!! Eh...
Bloody berds who work in laboratory to find ways to improve your brain performances!!!!
Let me know next time you see "imagination" and people thinking "outside of the box" in Fiji because I want to talk to them...
AMAZING - looks like Qiliho doesnt understand basic law or they are above the law....
Three police officers who were charged with unlawfully and indecently assaulting Iowane Benedito in November 2012 have been recruited by the Republic of Fiji Military Forces.
The police officers are Sanita Laqenasici, Jona Davonu and Semesa Naduka.
Colonel Sitiveni Qiliho says they have recruited the three police officers as they felt that they have been left on their own.
@11:01 PM
you sound like a mediocre student. mediocre and arrogant.
so I am a "loser"? mmmm I think not.
There is a reason why Chinese, Filipinos etc are filling so many positions in Fiji...
It has to do with the 40000 unemployed graduates.
They are all very imaginative according to you. They think outside of the box. They could even start businesses.
But they are too arrogant and want to have the top jobs even if they can't do calculus.
And they are all NERDS and really DUMB. All of them.
I just love you, you are a caricature of the problems in Fiji... petty arrogance and stupidity.
@10:16 AM
hahahahahahahha
only in Fiji.
At least, they think outside of the box. Why don't they send them to university instead? Army is for dumb people only.
Those 3 men could all get a free education at USP!
Maybe they could do sciences, or Economics. They would get a C after scaling marks, but I am sure they can think outside of the box like @11.01 PM said.
If they can beat up and rape a boy in the box of a truck outside in front of a camera, they sure have a future in
the highest positions available in this country. That is what we call TRANSPARENCY... hahahahha
Yo MR BUTAKO
What promises have you made to Sugar cane farmers during Fiji First Election Campaign 90% of Sugar cane farmers in Fiji are Indians and they have voted for FFP so why are you trying to Backstab this poor farmers ??
@9.57 The first place you can go to is the prime minister office.
"But all is not lost for Voreqe Bainimarama, the military commander who toppled the ruling government in 2006 with promises to clean up corruption. Shunned by Fiji's traditional friends, Bainimarama's interim government has decided to look north to countries in Asia, particularly China. In a visit to Beijing and Shanghai in mid-August, he secured vital aid from the rising superpower as he lauded the efficiency of its authoritarian system. "[The Chinese] think outside the box," Bainimarama told reporters. "What they want to do they do, [and] they are visionary in what they do."
Looks like Bainimarama favours Chinese government who thinks outside the box and visionary's.Maybe he considers himself a person who thinks outside the box lol.
The Fiji prime minister, Frank Bainimarama, says his government's ability to think outside the box has earned Fiji respect and will see it host two of the world's greatest leaders this week.
Mr Bainimarama was speaking to Fiji's heads of missions in Suva ahead of the visit by India's prime minister, Narendra Modi, and China's president, Xi Jinping.
He says the two are visiting because they recognise Fiji's achievement and its foreign policy of being friends to all and enemies to none.
Mr Bainimarama says the two leaders' visits have a strategic component because as emerging global powers, India and China want to have more of a presence in the Pacific.
He says he will be signing a number of Memorandums of Understanding with China, but adds deepening ties with Beijing won't replace existing relationship with others.
Both Mr Modi and Mr Xi attended the weekend G20 summit in Australia.
"The Fiji prime minister, Frank Bainimarama, says his government's ability to think outside the box has earned Fiji respect and will see it host two of the world's greatest leaders this week."
9.57am You can ask Bainimarma government as he says they have the "ability to think outside the box".
Every Fijian government as far as I am concerning have thought about issues "outside the box". FF is still is "able" to do so, but chooses not to.
Taken from some of the PM speeches
"Make no mistake our resolve in the past 8 years, our strategic direction as a nation and our ability to think outside the box has gained Fiji much respect around the world. We have also delivered on our promise to introduce the first genuine democracy in Fijian history, and returned our nation to parliamentary rule under a much acclaimed constitution"
Wait a minute did I just see "ability to think outside the box"?
"We are always seeking imaginative ways to overcome the problems we face – to think outside the box – to enable us to meet an acceptable standard of health care for a country of our size and means. And that means developing more partnership and collaboration with organisations such as Apollo to help us leap frog over the current hurdles, particularly in the delivery of tertiary health care"
Hey hey hey stop right there did I just read "We are always seeking imaginative ways to overcome the problems we face – to think outside the box"? Better go quickly speak to them about being imaginative and how they think outside the box
THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX
"An industry that many had written off is now excelling and making a significant contribution to the Fijian economy. And it’s all because of the commitment of management and staff, their ability to think outside the box and sheer hard work. Vinaka vakalevu on behalf of everyone.I want to mention just three examples of how Fiji Pine has set a new benchmark for the performance of state-owned enterprises, indeed for all of corporate Fiji"
"it’s all because of the commitment of management and staff, their ability to think outside the box and sheer hard work. Vinaka vakalevu on behalf of everyone."
"Fiji should align itself with 'visionary' China instead of Australia and NZ, says Bainimarama
I think that beating a man in THE BOX of a truck OUTSIDE of the office in front of a camera in order to show TRANSPARENCY is what we can call "thinking outside of the box".
11:01PM was right. The dumb students are the only ones who can think outside of the box.
Damn nerds are useless and all of them can't answer the phone at Sky Pacific!!! (I just wonder how nerds can make it that HIGH btw... Sky Pacific man....talk about a high position!!!!)
Sky's the limit for bloody NERDS!!!!! We should all send them overseas, they just want MONEY as 11:01 explained. Nerds will miss having to put with all the idiots thinking outside of the box living in Fiji and we will all laugh!!!!! hahahahahahhahahaha
"I am also here this morning to tell you that my Government shall be an agent of change for the betterment of Fiji and her people. My Government shall not shy away from making tough decisions, it shall not be hesitant to think outside the box and make paradigm shifts" - See more at: http://m.radioaustralia.net.au/international/radio/onairhighlights/commodore-frank-bainimarama-speech-to-the-nation#.dpuf
My fellow citizens, your Excellencies what I am saying is that I and my Government have a vision to make Fiji realize its true potential - a potential that can be realized through building a strong nation state, by empowering all our citizens, by fixing up the decades of neglected infrastructure, by providing actual adherence to the principles of the rule of law, by putting in place sustainable institutions and laws that will create accountability, transparency, justice, fair play and modernity; by improving living standards and alleviating poverty; by putting in place a liberalized and level playing field economy.

Since he is using this term. ...let me put it back on him.
He was "thinking outside the box" when he made that 100m dash to the cassava patch in the 2000 mutinee.
He was "thinking outside the box" when he gave orders to arm the crw to carry out the coup then turned against them. He was thinking outside the box when he and Khaiyum hid the $100m. He was thinking outside the box when he accepted 60k to take his family to watch the rugby world cup while the nation suffered economically. Thinking outside the box is letting Khaiyum run the show while he sit and do nothing but live a royal life with his entire family.
Bainimarama does think outside the box, Mary's box (aka vagina).
@2:56 PM
I am trying to write a balanced report on the 2000 coup/mutiny.
What are the most stunning evidences that Franky Boy gave orders to the CRW to carry out the coup?
I want to confront that version with that of Mara who said that it was Rabuka that was behind it...
Were they BOTH thinking outside of the box?
Hahahahhhhhahhhhhhahahahaha
Your either in or out of the box.
@3:30 PM
but were both Bainimarama AND Rabuka thinking outside of the box in 2000?
That sounds weird...
Which theory is the best? maybe the CRW was under some obscure Rabuka/church/whatever influence?
on wikipedia, it says:
"Accusations were leveled against former Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka, who had himself instigated two military coups in 1987. In an interview with the Fiji Times on 12 November 2000, Commodore Bainimarama charged that while the revolt was in progress, Rabuka had visited the barracks with his army uniform in the car, ready to take over command of the army. He also allegedly started issuing orders to soldiers, telling them to obey his orders. "Rabuka's words to one of my colonels at the height of the shootings raised my suspicions," Bainimarama said. "He said the Colonel should listen to his instructions. He also criticised my leadership." Bainimarama accused Rabuka of leading soldiers astray by using "confusing" and "deceiving" words.
Bainimarama also accused Rabuka of having "politicized" the Counter Revolutionary Warfare (CRW) unit, which he had founded as a bodyguard in 1987, to favour both the mutiny and the earlier takeover of parliament in May. Members of the CRW were involved in both the May coup and the November mutiny."
So was this a vere vakabau of Bainimarama, or a vere vakacakaudrove of Rabuka?!?
I am soooooooo confused! and there were 2 mutinies in 2000... what about the first one?
was in a Rabuka revenge on Bainimarama for not finishing the job?
why did Bainimarama commited a vere vakabau then?
3.13..the answer to that I beleive is with Speight, the fall guy . However how can they think out of the box when the boxes are empty. One can only think out when the contents are sensible and have the ability to vision and create. What they have is hunger for power like all dictators do.
@9.57 How about you go visit the Prime ministers office,government conference's,Fiji's academic community, Investors who invest in Fiji,business men and lawyers for a start?You're dumb fucking nerd who lives overseas barking behind the fence.baaaahahahahahhaa RFMF keep this one inside the box and give ERM a hiding bahahahahahhaha Toso Viti forward we much together.
Had this been a political enemy of the regime who did this, the regime would have harassed him out of the country.
