The Need for A Radical Change in Fiji
The unprecedented systemic levels of Official Corruption by the Fiji Military Government is the root cause of the Republic of Fiji's 'muddling on' in economic terms.
Political Accountability depends on the quality of government in power in which the people, by exercising our democratic rights can use the threat of replacing governments at the ballot box to reduce corruption. A high quality government therefore allows democracy to be exercised.
In Fiji we have the opposite, we have an inept military mob that have used a Fijian Dynasty as a front, Islamic Terrorists as its chief Legal Genocide Strategists, and shady Businesses to prop up our rouge government, make no mistake they do not prop up the State or the essential public services required, nor the People, they prop up the Government in persona.
Our once flourishing government institutions and personnel that our major trading partners had spent millions of dollars and decades to strengthen and build capacity has been flushed down the Kinoya Sewer.
Corruption has become uncontrollable and this is why numerous commentators have repeatedly voiced their concern that Fiji is a “Failed African State”, that Fiji is the “Burma of the Pacific” and our own take that Fiji is the “Terrorist Hub” of the Pacific.
You see we are a unique small island state with big big problems but it has always been quite easy to manipulate either of the majority, racist to the core on either side and all that was needed was a 'tiny minority' that could NEVER form a substantive political party and NEVER win an election who were FED UP of ruling in the Shadows and decided to “Punish the Infidels” on their “genocide” roadmap.
This is a point that will never be understood by either side and until it is acknowledged and until the lesson of this 2006 and 2009 coups sinks in to our core at the grass root level, Fiji will never change until we think and act as one, until we collectively acknowledge the KEY to our FREEDOM and decide that we must transform our deep seated prejudices, hatred and animosity.
This will only occur when the grassroots who do not have access to TV, News Papers, Radio and the Internet have a basic understanding of the principles of democracy, the rule of law, human rights and good governance, when we make a concerted effort to open our minds to a prosperous Fiji and cleanse our soul of the demons that have terrorized us for three decades, to value and respect our Constitution and the Rule of Law.
We are a common humanity, we have common permanent interests, but this requires in Franks words a “radical change” unfortunately it is not the same “radical change” that we speak of.
