A MOCKERY OF THE LAW: DPP rules FBC did not break the law when it insulted native Fijians on Wasea Bhasha: 'It was not shocking enough...." Who decides if the insult was shocking or not - Fijian Victims or DPP?

WRAPPING
different meanings
to race hate
laws in Fiji

“In order for a charge [against FBC] of inciting communal antagonism to succeed, the broadcast must have been of such a nature and sufficiently egregious to justify the sanction of the criminal law. In other words, the broadcast must do more than simply insult or cause offence to people."
DDP Christopher Pryde - Re FBC decision

According to him, the insult to indigenous Fijians was not "egregious", meaning SHOCKING!

Fijileaks: Now, it is free for all to insult INDIGENOUS FIJIANS - and other RACES - (provided it's not
'egregious' - outstandingly bad or shocking).

Frankly speaking, it was none other than Frank Bainimarama who started it all when he told Fijian chiefs to go and drink home brew under the mango tree. And what did he do? He began illegally collecting $280,00 in salary, followed by his puppeteer master Aiyaz Sayed Khaiyum ($185,000 and Dr Neil Sharma, $150,000) and his indigenous Cabinet Ministers were paid $135,000 each. Ironically, SODELPA cannot take advantage of the "insults" heaped on native Fijians, for the party is led by Sitiveni Rabuka, who had described Hindus and Muslims as "pagans who should be converted to Christianity" or better still, their lives should be made so difficult in Fiji - STRANGERS IN PARADISE - that they would leave the country of their birth

* Indigenous Fijians are inferior because they fail in universities and they spend more time participating in sports
* Indigenous Fijians are academically poor because they do not know how to read in English

Like the Fiji Times trio, FBC can be accused of making antagonistic comments against the native Fijians, comments which non-native Fijian school children could employ to look down on native Fijian students as academically DUMB.

Below are two DDP statements (published in the Fiji Sun) and the criteria that was employed when deciding what constitutes "inciting communal antagonism" in Fiji
