What’s this guy smoking? He must know Fiji’s 2013 Constitution had one of the weakest Bills of Rights in the world, which yielded to every arbitrary military government decree enacted between 2006 and 2014 - including the ridiculous Media Decree. He’s a lawyer, he has no excuse.
Our new government means a new sense of freedom. As it should - another four years of FijiFirst would have destroyed rule of law in our country.
But now we have it, what are we going to do with that freedom? Time to speak up and step up. My @fijitimes piece tomorrow.
My @fijitimes piece today on Bill 17. Technically there isn’t even a problem. But this disrespectful, I-know-everything-I-don’t-need-to-consult attitude has created a problem where there wasn’t one. It’s also exposed the lack of constitutional protections for iTaukei land laws.
Went to Suva market today. Vegetables in short supply, and looking very 'tired'. I think farmers are scared to harvest in case a sudden lockdown means they have to dump again.
Disgusted by the fact that @FijiAG called an old lady "politically motivated" when all she asked was how the budget was working for her and her family.
QUESTIONING THE GOVERNMENT IS YOUR RIGHT!!!!

SNAP - just what I’m thinking.
Fiji mainstream media, mostly govt-controlled, skims quickly across bad news like police brutality so it can move to something safer. But why do we get fired up on others’ hashtags, not thinking harder about the serious problems we have at home?
