Vinaka saka vakalevu na gugumatua. Your hard work to keep the blog going and providing a free space for us anti-coup bloggers is very much appreciated.

On May 1, another Australian publisher, the Fiji Times ' Evan Hannah, was deported from Fiji for allegedly attempting to destabilize the military-backed interim government. This was the second deportation in less than three months.

If the funds are not in the budget now for the running of Parliament in 2009, doesn?t this cast doubts on the sincerity of the promise to hold elections? Well yes it does, but much more doubt is cast by the fact that the same document shows no funds, YES, NO FUNDS, FOR THE ELECTIONS IN 2009. Go to page 72 of the forward estimates document: Look under Head No

Another poorly written article on Taiwan February 2nd, 2008 I get so fed up with the abysmal quality of reporting on Taiwan. Your typical Taiwan story is generally barely researched and hugely biased. Dev Nadkarni (who seems to be a Journalism lecturer from Fiji) served up a recent example in the New Zealand Herald. You can read the story here. I am sick of reading this garbage so on Friday I shot a letter off to the editor of the New Zealand Herald. Of course my letter was way too long to p
