Waqabaca stood up to the Bully and Blunder Boy of Fiji. Now he is in the United States after he was sent on LEAVE by the BBB - Aiyaz Khaiyum!

FILIMONE WAQABACA had also called a meeting  last week with his top Finance Ministry staff and Khaiyum did not like it. Waqabaca told BBB that he can call a meeting with his staff anytime, he does not have to know or attend these meetings. It has also emerged that Bainimarama had deliberately left Fiji so he did not have to stand up in Parliament and explain or defend the Budget - too complicated for HIM.

STILL MISSING:

‪#‎And‬ now its reward time for FF financiers and bootlickers!


The regime has lost no time in rewarding its big financiers and supporters in the 2014 general elections as evident in the appointment to the Fiji Airways board announced today.

The new names on the Fiji Airways board are: Sandip Patel of CJ Patel, Aslam Khan just retired Vodafone CEO, Stefan Pichler just retired Fiji Airways CEO continues as board member, and (believe it or not) Solicitor General Sarvanand Sharma.

Several of the appointees are clearly questionable. There are three major issues with the new appointments:

#1 There is no indigenous Fijian member on the Fiji Airways board- this is a radical and clearly racist departure from past practice which ensured that membership of statutory boards and State-owned companies were racially balanced. Note: Nalin Patel continues as board member.

#2 The problem of absentee members - Aslam Khan now resides in Geneva (or so we believe), Pichler is leaving to take over as CEO of Berlin Airlines, and Sandip Patel reportedly spends most of his time in Brisbane. What kind of commitment will these absentee board members have to Fiji Airways and to Fiji Tourism? Another noticeable departure from convention is the absence of any tourism representative on the board of the national airline.

#3 What is the Solicitor General doing sitting on the board of the national airline. For god's sake he is the Solicitor General - he must retain his independence and impartiality. He cannot be sitting on boards of State owned companies. This is similar to Chief Justice Gates and DPP Pryde going to Geneva to make representation before the working committee of the UN Human Rights Commission in favour of the State. What if a case appears before Gates challenging the violation of the very human rights issues he went to Geneva to support the State's stand on?

This is just the beginning, folks. Jobs for the boys and reward for services rendered to th e regime! Brace yourselves for more brazen violation of sound past practices and State regulations as rewards are handed out left, right and centre.

Yep that is how it is with a dictator to micro manage everything - and make no mistake Aiyaz Sayad Khaiyum is a diktator. Dictating and riding roughshod over others is the modus operandi of the dictator. But some man have the spine to say he will not stand for the dictator's bullying and nonsense. Waqa baca is such a man from my reading of what has transpired. Good on you Man.

It is high time Mr Chaudhry that you represent us as protector of Human Rights in Fiji.

You led this bunch towards one man one vote and also said you did not care FLP to lose the elections with your proposed constitution amendment, now can you complete your promise you made to test tooth and nail the 1997 Constitution and make a representation in Geneva?

Afterall you as one of the trustees of Chautala money remaining in India, you are able to utilise that to fight democracy and human rights in Fiji. Isn't that what the money was collected for?

Afterall under interim minister post coup, you started thuggery against civil servants, media personnel, and put your hands in the public till to 30 years leave backpay.

Now we have kangaroo parliament that Aussie, NZ, USA and UK are supporting.

Please Chaudhry, when will you be seen in Geneva at UN Human Rights Commission in favour of the underdogs to highlight the election was stolen from you, and hat by SG as board member of Fiji Airways, Gates and Pryde representing Fiji at UN, these are robust proof that Fiji does not have seperation of powers between judiciary and state?

Why fool us voters by just putting press releases on your FLP blog. What use is that to us and to democracy? Ask your lawyer friends and your lawyer members who may land you support pro-bono...

What goes missing is usually never Found - Just like the official records of the Original Fiji First Party.

Wagabaca is a qualified and experienced professional. His rise to PS Finance position was one which was achieved and not ascribed. He was appointed on merit having extensive financial experience at Reserve Bank of fiji. As a professional he is exemplary to other professionals on the job. Stand your ground for truth, justice, quality and fairness to the general population of Fiji. This country needs Wagabaca as he is a fine nation builder.
