SWEETENING UP TO "SUGAR DADDY": NFP and FLP can BARK as much as they like but given their past failure to redress the plight of sugarcane farmers, most farmers are foolishly looking to Bainimarama and FFP

25/7/2016

Fijileaks to Ministry of Information: 'GOD' shaking left - hand with VEGETABLE FARMER and not a CANE FARMER. MoI caption leads us to believe that Bainimarama is shaking hand with a cane farmer. This eager Indo-Fijian is a vegetable farmer from Nadeva Valley Rd. Where were the cane farmers? They were harvesting cane!
Is Daddy's girl, BERNADETTE Bainimarama, now acting director or
DIRECTOR of Information Ministry?

Khaiyum addressing the Nadroga cane farmers, with Bala sitting next to him. The political parties have not uttered a word on Bala case

Chaudhry ‪challenges‬ Bainimarama to public ‪debate‬ on sugar

Prime Minister Bainimarama has a habit of hurling unsubstantiated accusations at his opponents, says Labour Leader Mahendra Chaudhry.

At a meeting with Rakiraki cane growers on Saturday (Sunday Times 24 July), he accused Labour Leader Mahendra Chaudhry and other politicians of spreading “a lot of misinformation” on the two Sugar Bills, that he said were “not true” but failed to give any examples.

In ‪reply‬ Mr Chaudhry said, “I would not be surprised if he hasn’t even bothered to read the Bills. He can only make generalised accusations in front of people who would dare not question him back.

“I invite him to a ‪public‬ debate to clear the air on the two Sugar Bills, including any other topic related to the Sugar Industry. Let the public decide who is right and who is wrong.

“ In fact Bainimarama should vacate the Sugar portfolio because he is a failure as a Minister. Industry statistics speak for itself – cane and sugar production down by almost 50% since he took charge in 2008. The industry is in its worst shape ever with FSC surviving on government backed loans and growers’ beset by problems so profound that over 3000 of them have quit growing cane, with more likely to join them.

“All this happened under Bainimarama’s stewardship of the industry,” Mr Chaudhry said.

Mr. Bainimarama is just a bundle of contradictions himself. He informs the growers that sections of the “reform” Bill will take the industry back to the colonial era, and will therefore be removed.

Then he turns around and accuses his critics of saying that the Bills would take us back to the days of the Girmit

The truth is that the two Sugar Bills are ‪‎regressive‬, they remove the democratic rights of the growers and have been totally rejected by them.

This was made categorically clear in the two rounds of public discussions held by the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Economic Affairs. Not a single person who appeared before the Committee spoke in favour of the Bills.

The FLP also refutes claims made in the newspaper that growers who were former members of the Party had now moved to the FFP. “They could well be plants of the Fiji First Party claiming to be former FLP members,” said Mr Chaudhry.

Fijileaks: AND THE NFP SHOULD JUST SHUT UP ABOUT USE OF TECHNOLOGY IN 2018 ELECTIONS. They and other parties should not have contested the 2014 general election, for the Electoral System was designed for FFP win. If they are serious, they should be calling for a judicial inquiry into the BALA case, one of their very own, who defected to FFP to save his 'skin'. We know Bala was locked up in a police cell. Why? Police records have been destroyed? But, all we hear NFP barking about, is sugar, sugar, sugar! For too long, very long, Indo-Fijian leaders have trapped their people in bottomless pit, with NFP leader Jai Ram Reddy running away, and FLP leader Mahendra Chaudhry becoming a multi-millionaire from the embers of racism in Fiji - 'The Haryana Millions'
Like 'sucking ants' they are latching to 'sugar politics' to win votes! As for SODELPA, they have "RAMBHUKA" - 'God is Hungry' - Rabuka appointed to con and tap into raw native Fijian nationalism in the 2018 election!

TWO LAWS IN FIJI FOR CAUSING DEATH BY DANGEROUS DRIVING: An ordinary bus checker jailed for EIGHT years (eligible for parole after 7 years) and FFP GOVERNMENT MINISTER Bala FREE to drive around Fiji

WORST, Bala was driving a Lautoka City Council car when he KILLED PUNA CHAND but the Sri Lankan magistrate acquitted Bala saying NONE of the witnesses saw Bala behind the wheel. Was it a DOG at the wheels?

'WE ARE ALL EQUAL before the law': Go, tell bus checker Rabindar Singh

49-year-old Rabindar Singh has been sentenced to eight years imprisonment by the Suva High Court.

Judge Justice Salesi Temo has fixed a non-parole period of seven years.

Singh was found guilty of manslaughter by the three assessors and the judge concurred with them.

On the 6th of May, 2014 Singh drove a Dee Cee’s Bus at the Suva Bus Stand knowing that the bus had mechanical problems.

Singh was employed as a checker for Dee Cees bus company at the time of the incident.

The bus hit the back of a Nasese bus resulting in the bus hitting 46-year-old Seruwaia Rokosere and 3-year-old Paulini Tubuna.

They both died on the same day.

While sentencing Singh, Justice Temo said the Suva Bus Stand is always full of commuters and told Singh that he knew the bus had broken down but drove it carelessly.

Justice Temo says he has shown utter disregard to the deceased lives and this sentence is to punish him, and to protect the public from reckless vehicle drivers. Source: Fijivillage News, 25 July 2016

BLOWING 'TRUMPET' FOR LEWENI'S appointment as Chief Protocol Officer at Fiji's Foreign Affairs Ministry. Kubuabola gets approval from Bainimarama for Leweni to get job. Long-serving Civil Servants snubbed!

22/7/2016

8 Comments

* Fijileaks has learned from military sources that Kubuabola went to Bainimarama asking his approval for the appointment of Major Neumi Leweni, the former 2006 post-coup military spokesman and military band master, as the new Chief of Protocol for Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to replace the acting CoP Jiko Rasoqosoqo, who was appointed in the position in May 2014

We understand that Bainimarama has approved the appointment of Leweni as next Chief of Protocol

One Civil Servant expressed his disappointment to us: "We in Civil Service are made to adhere to the PSC's open merit based recruitment process whereas Bainimarama and Kubuabola's cronies have free will and ride to get the top positions in Civil Service. Where is open merit based appointment here.?

"The racist Kubuabola appointed all i-Taukei to Ministry of Foreign Affairs with help of his pawn [Deputy Secretary Policy] Esala Nayasi as Principal Foreign Service Officers. Most of them who are relatives of Esala Nayasi or his friends. Kubuabola cannot accept the fact that Robin Nair is his PS and is going behind his back to remove him from being his PS. But Robin [Nair] is doing good job adhering to transparency and merit based appointments. Even he declined Joshua Tuwere's appointment as Second Secretary to New Delhi which is big slap on the face of Kubuabola."

BALA CASE: Magistrate's reasons to acquit FFP Minister Praveen Bala should make warning lights flash RED for JUSTICE to the poor in Fiji; the regime's DDP Pryde to make decision whether to appeal Bala judgment

21/7/2016

17 Comments

In R. v. Evans (1963) 1 Q.B. 413 where a defendant had been convicted of causing death by dangerous driving it was held as stated in the head note to the case "that the test being objective the degree of negligence was irrelevant and if in fact the driver adopted a manner of driving which the jury thought dangerous to other road users in all the circumstances he was guilty, and it mattered not (although it was relevant to sentence) whether he was deliberately reckless, careless, momentarily inattentive or even doing his incompetent best". The learned Magistrate did not, in my view properly evaluate the evidence before him and draw the proper inferences from the established facts. The respondent drove without due care and attention and the Magistrate should have convicted him. The appeal is allowed. The Magistrate's order acquitting the respondent is set aside and the respondent is convicted of the offence of Causing Death by Dangerous Driving contrary to section 269(1) of the Penal Code." - Justice Kermode, Director of Public Prosecutions v Ali [1978] FJSC 23; Criminal Appeal 008 of 1978 (22 March 1978)

The Sri Lankan magistrate Rangajeeva Wimalasena
in Bala case picked out the 'plums and left the duff behind'

POWER AND ARROGANCE: SMIRKY MINISTER AND HUMBLE HOUSEWIFE - Bala with his back to Aruna Wati at the Lautoka Magistrates Court

Fijileaks: Did Arun Wati's alleged lack of confidence result in her giving 'inconsistent evidence'? Or was it because it took DPP nearly three long years to bring Bala to court?

Magistrate: 'None of the witnesses saw Bala behind the wheel of the car'

Is that a Doggy behind the wheels?

Fijileaks: It is quite likely that witnesses did not see Bala driving the car. That does not mean that the case should collapse on that basis. The magistrate ruled that none of the witnesses saw Bala behind the wheel of his car. Hello, Bala did confess to a Police Officer at the scene that he (Bala) was the driver of the car

The TISI Sangam Connection: Pathologist Gounder and Bala 'buddies'?

Fijileaks: Evidence from around the world reveal that some victims DIE and some SURVIVE after being involved in motor vehicle accidents

The woman got caught underneath the wheels of the truck

The woman managed to crawl out from beneath the wheels.

Magistrate claims the car did not suffer great damage. If so, why did Bala admit himself to the Lautoka Hospital after the accident?

JUDICIAL MURDER?: Lautoka Magistrates Court drops the death by dangerous driving charge against the FFP Minister Praveen Bala

21/7/2016

Sri Lanka Magistrate Rangajeeva Wimalasena said that the court did not believe the witnesses as they gave contradictory evidence. An application for ‘no case to answer’ should only be allowed when there is no evidence that a crime has been committed by the defendant.
WHO KILLED PUNA CHAND?

In case of State v Ratu Inoke Takiveikata, Justice Goundar said: "The phrase "no evidence" has been interpreted to mean that there is no evidence on an essential element of the charged offence (Sisa Kalisoqo v State Criminal Appeal No. 52 of 1984). If there is some evidence on the essential elements of the charged offence, the application for a no case to answer cannot succeed. The credibility, reliability and weight are matters for the assessors and not for the trial judge to consider at a no case to answer stage."

THE FACE TELLS IT ALL: Bala with his back to the victim's widow!

The ‘Galbraith Submission’ after the case of R v Galbraith [1981] 1 WLR 1039 re "No Case To Answer":

“If there is no evidence that the crime alleged has been committed by the defendant, there is no difficulty. The judge will of course stop the case. The difficulty arises where there is some evidence but it is of a tenuous character, for example because of inherent weakness or vagueness or because it is inconsistent with other evidence. (a) Where the judge comes to the conclusion that the prosecution evidence, taken at its highest, is such that a jury properly directed could not properly convict upon it, it is his duty, upon a submission being made, to stop the case. (b) Where however the prosecution evidence is such that its strength or weakness depends on the view to be taken of a witness’s reliability or other matters which are generally speaking within the province of the jury and where on one possible view of the facts there is evidence upon which a jury could properly come to the conclusion that the defendant is guilty, then the judge should allow the matter to be tried by the jury…."

RUNNING FOR THE SPRINT LINE over Mohan appointment: Bainimarama challenges Radrodro to disclose why Sodelpa MP was kicked out of Fiji Sports Council. Radrodro says he won't talk about his removal from FSC

19/7/2016

Bainimarama asked Radrodro to answer a question on whether or not he was removed from the Fiji Sports Council as the financial manager for allegation of mismanagement

Why Appoint Mohan? – Radrodro, Can you answer my question about your previous job? - PM

SODELPA MP Aseri Radrodro, new FSC Chairman Vishnu Mohan and Prime Minister and Minister for Sugar Voreqe BainimaramaThe appointment of the new Chairman of the Fiji Sugar Corporation has resulted in a SODELPA MP Aseri Radrodro criticizing the decision and the Prime Minister and Minister for Sugar hitting back and raising the question on what Radrodro had done in his previous job.

Radrodro has issued a statement saying that the appointment of former ANZ Chief Executive Officer for Fiji and the Pacific, Vishnu Mohan as the new FSC Chairman is another slap in the face for qualified and professional Fijians who have graduated and worked their way to top positions in Fiji and abroad.

Aseri Radrodro has hit out and queried the logic behind the appointment of Mohan, saying that the expatriate has since coming into Fiji, taken over two executive positions in Fiji, the first being the Chairman of Public Service Commission, and now the Fiji Sugar Corporation.

He says when someone like Mohan finishes his job in Fiji as per his expatriate contract, he should be returning to his homeland. Radrodro says other people can take up the post. He also questions what is happening with the PSC as two Permanent Secretaries have resigned after just a few months.

When approached by Fijivillage on Radrodro raising concern on Mohan’s appointment, Prime Minister Bainimarama asked Radrodro to answer a question on whether or not he was removed from the Fiji Sports Council as the financial manager for allegation of mismanagement.

Bainimarama says Radrodro should not be talking about qualified Fijians based on this. When questioned on this matter, Radrodro confirmed that he was removed but he says the allegations have not been proven as yet. Radrodro says he will not talk about the allegations levelled against him before his removal from the Sports Council. Source: Fijivillage News, 19 July 2016

SINKING FEELING OF SHAME (Now): Defence Minister Natuva labels the running aground of RFNS Kiro as "shameful news for the Navy". Its same vessel that was used to beat Speight and his coupists on way to Nukulau

* Fijileaks: When will Viliame Naupoto, the then Naval Commander and now Commander of the RFMF, be arrested and charged, as recommended by a Board of Inquiry into the beatings of George Speight and his fellow coupists on board the RFNS Kiro?

Grounded KIRO

NATUVA on RFNS Kiro grounding

DEFENCE Minister Timoci Natuva has labelled the running aground of Republic of Fiji Naval Ship RFNS Kiro as "shameful news for the Navy".

RFNS Kiro ran aground last Friday on Cakauyawa Reef near Makuluva Island, just a little more than 10km outside of Suva.

Confirming the incident last night, Mr Natuva said a board of inquiry would be set up to determine the cause of the incident.

"But it's shameful news for the Navy because hardly in any navy that (a) ship has run aground," Mr Natuva said.

"Right at the moment I don't have the details because it has to go through an investigation board of inquiry and the outcome of what happened and then there would maybe a court-martial."

He said a ship equipped with modern technology such as a Global Positioning System (GPS), radar, gyrocompass and sea charts should not run aground.

Mr Natuva said the Prime Minister and former Navy Commander Voreqe Bainimarama had not been briefed on the matter.

"The Prime Minister should have been briefed this afternoon (yesterday) and it is shameful that it has not happened."

He said he does not know right now whether the ship would be salvaged or not.

Mr Natuva said with RFNS Kiro running aground, it would be difficult for the Navy to patrol Fiji's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).

"Even though we have five ships, they are limited in their capability."

The RFNS Kiro was provided to the Fiji Navy by the Australian Defense Force in 1995.

As of yesterday evening, a team from this newspaper that visited the site noted the vessel was still stuck on the reef.

When contacted last night, acting Navy Commander Marika Vosawale said he would not comment on the matter.

STEALING THE MARCH: Tebbutt Times Poll gives Bainimarama 82 per cent approval rating from the public over his Opposition political rivals

18/7/2016

5 Comments

TWO years into his first democratically- elected term as Prime Minister, Voreqe Bainimarama has gained an 82 per cent approval rating from the Fiji public.

This places him ahead of Opposition Leader Ro Teimumu Kepa, who tallied an approval rating of 51 per cent in the latest Tebbutt Times poll.

Calculated from a random national sample of 1004 adults over 18 years of age, Mr Bainimarama's ratings were generally consistent across age groupings and gender with only 5 per cent of Fijians disapproving of his performance as Prime Minister.

Poll respondents were asked to rate the performance of PM Bainimarama and Opposition Leader Ro Teimumu as either very good/good/average/not very good/poor and both leaders scored generally well across the board.

Of those who approve of Mr Bainimarama's performance as Prime Minister 51 per cent say he is doing "a very good job" and 31 per cent say he is doing "a good job", combining to give him an approval rating of 82 per cent.

For those disapproving, three per cent say he is "not doing a very good job" and two per cent say he is "doing a poor job", combining for a five percent disapproval rating.

"One per cent of people surveyed refused to answer the question and 2 per cent were unsure.

The remainder rated Mr Bainimarama's performance as "average", the survey notes.

Mr Bainimarama enjoys high support from Fijians of Indian descent, with 93 per cent approving of his Government leadership and just 1 per cent disapproving. The iTaukei also gave the PM a 74 per cent approval rating.

Ro Teimumu's support base came primarily from the iTaukei with 57 per cent approving of her Opposition leadership. Fijians of Indian descent gave Ro Teimumu a 47 per cent approval rating, with others behind on 37 per cent.

Of the 57 per cent, who approve of Ro Teimumu's Opposition leadership, 18 per cent say she is doing "a very good job" and 34 per cent say she is doing "a good job".

Nine per cent of people who disapprove of her leadership say Ro Teimumu is "not doing a very good job" while a further six per cent say she is "doing a poor job", making the total disapproval rating 15 per cent.

The poll was conducted from July 6 to July 12. Source: Fiji Times, 16 July 2016
