Standing "shoulder to shoulder" with Tiko...
The six-week long Middle-East trip of Defence Minister Pio Tikoduadua to visit our peace - keeping troops to 'hear their concerns directly', as he puts it, is unbelievably absurd.
Six weeks is a long, long time for a highly paid Minister to be away from his duties at home.
To make it worse, he adds that he is ..'not going on a vacation but to stand shoulder to shoulder with our men and women in uniform'.
Minister, it's going to cost the taxpayer thousands to send you on this junket as we see it.
Besides, we think our men and women in uniform are quite capable of standing shoulder to shoulder on their own- they hardly need a Minister to inspire them.
As for 'hearing their concerns directly', may we ask the Minister: Does the RFMF not have its own machinery to deal with such matters?
Thousands of dollars will be wasted on this puerile trip while our hospitals and health centres remain deprived of money to provide medicine and other critical supplies to our sick.
Just how the Prime Minister allows such abuse of funds and irrational ministerial conduct, boggles the mind!
