"We have conducted an exhaustive search of our servers to verify that no such e-mail was ever sent across our internal network...The Fiji Revenue and Customs Service has corrected the record on a poorly photo-shopped image of a fake e-mail relating to a former chief executive officer FRCS. We won't allow FRCS's independence to be undermined by anyone, particularly not by instigators on social media cowering behind keyboards..." Acting FRCA CEO Madam Fane Vave
Fijileaks: We contacted you twice in July, and it is you who is HIDING from us. We are a online NEWS SITE and not a social media site (social media: websites and applications that enbale users to create and share content or to participate in social networking), formed in 2012, and just like Fijivillage News, that describes itself as an online news site owned by Communications Fiji Ltd. Both the founders of the respective news sites had cut their teeth at the same time in the 1980s with fiery and fearless journalism, one in print journalism and the other in radio journalism. The only difference is while Communications Fiji Ltd is raking in millions in revenue, we have made our site FREE. As general secretary of the now defunct Journalists Association of Fiji, our founding Fijileaks Publisher passionately defended the rights and freedom of speech of all Fijian journalists in the 1980s. Our goal and objective has always been to serve as an alternative press to Fiji press which has been kowtowing to Khaiyum-Bainimarama, spitting LIES against us, and lying to the Fijian citizens. No matter which party is in Government, we must hold power to account. Just look at how they ran through the 'cassava patch' with Vave's false and lying statement, instead of seeking comments from us at [[email protected]], for after all it was we, and not the Fiji media, that revealed Visvanath Das's email to his GANG OF FIVE.
WE STAND BY OUR STORY
THE ONLY FAKERS ARE MADAM FANE VAVE AND HER FRCA MOB.
We insist we didn't photo-shop Das Email, for we also have replies to him
NOW, WE REVEAL the Draft Revenue Report July 2019, that was attached to the DASS E-mail of 5/08/2019, and contained the following:
'As discussed with PS and Minister the budget was about $580m more in revenue to show very low deficit for debt. This is final report so get it from accountant revenue and Emily get your IT Team organized to delete emails and draft reports from everywhere on our system. Kindly attaching, draft Revenue Report for the month of July 2019. Not to be leaked otherwise PS and Minister will make us leak out from FRCS.' Fijileaks: Read the 2019 July Revenue Report below. Basically, the data reveal that there has been a downturn right across the economy and all the revenue items have been down to the end of July 2019, long before COVID19. There is some data on the RFB website (associated with IMF sources) that indicate the same trend for 2019
