THE PRESIDENT IS GOING NOWHERE: Government House needs urgent repair from WEAR AND TEAR, says one commentator to Fiji Leaks

Waila has just posted a comment on your blog post:

"I seriously doubt the president and the first lady have been told to "get out." Rather, I believe it's the norm to relocate our president and first lady when major repairs are undertaken at the presidential abode. Khaiyum has nothing to do with it. It is nature taking its course and just like any other home, it does need repairs occasionally. Blowing things out of proportion through slanted articles does not help soften the truth. It merely hides it and like a phoenix rising from the ashes, people are in awe when the truth emerges. Reading your blog, it is apparent that the need to gag the media by the government was obviously not done to silence opinions. It was done so lies such as this do not further divide the races in Fiji and cause confusion.

Naturally the response from your readers (and you) no doubt will be that I am a government sympathizer. My comment may even be rejected for publication.

When you are employed by the civil service to a middle management position, and you are hired based on merit instead of the color of ones skin, it is like a veil is lifted and one realizes that perhaps some good is coming from the changes.

I leave you here with the following: there are some who choose to see the cup as being half-empty while there are others who see it as half full. Which are you Victor?

New residential quarters for the staff at Government House that was opened by Nailatikau last week. The staff duplex quarters took four months to build by a local firm and cost $315,000. “When I became President, it was a priority for me to build new quarters for the staff. I’m glad that these duplex quarters will be used by two senior staff and their family.”

FROM FIJILEAKS Archives: Government House has been a
nest of intrigue, lies, denial & betrayal:

The problem with Waila's theory on the media gag and the glass half full and half empty is that you only see the half of it. Media gags hide the lies just as well as they purport to "stop such lies". So my friend good to know you got your middle manager's job on merit as you say you did but, who knows, the other half of the glass, which could be hiding the actual truth, may see otherwise. Oh and please we all know you're not a government sympathizer, you're just looking out for yourself and its understandable with many getting fired and kicked out of their jobs for speaking out and not sympathizing with them. So relax, chill, enjoy the tax payers money but please refine yourself to providing good service to those who actually pay you to do what you do and keep in mind the Government is not the one paying you, its the taxpayers of this country that do. You see if you did "half" the job you were paid to do instead of wasting taxpayers money trying to convince people of you half, full glass crap, we might actually think you're the other half of the half full glass.

Waila, how can you have got the job when you are posting your comment from Sydney, Australia, where your Fake Hero danced the night away at the Xmas Party you and others had organized for him

@Interpol

While I commend you on your ability to note my IP ororiginated from Australia, you may have missed a vital fact. That I may be here on vacation or visiting friends and family members who mentioned this site thus resulting in my visit and subsequent comment to an article with factual inaccuracies.

@KON I'm not sure what you mean. From your comment, should I assume that because I work for the government in Fiji, I am not allowed to have relatives and friends in other parts of the world? The world is a large place and people settle where they choose to

What a cost of $315k for 2 basic units?

Indeed an expensive contract. $315,000 for this duplex?

What a joke...for this block and motar house with louver blade windows certainly does not look any larger than 80m2 each.

Mr President, Housing Authority would have made it at much cheaper cost of say $40,000 each unit. So really it appears the cost of building is overpriced at say by $215,000 in total.

Don't you think so? Or has the cost of blocks and block laying cost so much these days in Fiji? Or is it teh plastermen cost!!
