We have concluded that this man is totally unstable and beyond rehabilitation - let us hope he stays in Australia, and for good!

Every second hour his worshippers are abandoning him - for their families, friends and acquaintances are suffering while he has been just posting all the FOOD he has been treating to himself in New Zealand and Australia.

Please take a TABLET and go to bed!

Fijileaks, we challenge you to publish this comment of ours.

The " Messiah" arriving with supplies has all the hallmarks of the cargo cult.
Natural disasters happen all over the world. The PM is not presented as the " Messiah " and all that.
The only reason for the Fiji Sun for doing that is to propagandise for the Dear Leader. It is not without reason that the Fiji Sun has been labelled the Dictator's Paper. It remains his mouthpiece and propagandist, quite shamelessly.

Fiji media has been kept under precision control and this so called "Messiah" is taking full advantage of every opportunity.He has learned some "Bollywood" acts in the process,and the people with cameras are carefully photographing ,and the media appeasing him at every possible opportunity.Can the media ask this man ,why is he claiming the credit? Are the Relief Supplies from his pocket,has he spent a cent from his $328,000,00 salary?? ...The PM is seen without his bodyguards,in actual fact is this the reality?Can the PM leave the distribution to DISMAC without his interference?Or is he desperate making his appearance visible and scoring political mileage at a time like this..OR..Did Winston also start the election campaign for FFP? Just wondering.

The distribution of relief supplies and resources has quickly become a pork barrell scam to prepare for the next election. This is what the de'Hondt electoral system does to a country. QOVIS, with the unashamed support of the Fiji Sun (read CJ Patel or shall I say Nestle) has crafted Bainimarama into a Kim Il Jung type "saviour of the people" character. I bet Nestle products like Milo and Maggi Noodles will be top of the Fiji First Party purchase list when they start buying relief supplies

Editor,
Democracy Index.
Carla Kweifio-Okai and Josh Holder in their The Guardian article
' Democracy in Africa : five myths explored ' ( Feb 25 ) analyse under the following heads:
1. Democracy is not spreading across Africa
2. Africa is dominated by Big Men
3. Elections are the sole indicator of a thriving democracy
4. High voter turnout means corruption
5. The passing of power is often violen
With regard to the 3rd index when asked whether elections were giving democracy a bad name, former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said:
" Democracy is not just about one day every four or five years when elections are held, but a system of government that respects the separation of powers, fundamental freedoms like the freedom of thought, religion, expression, association and assembly and the rule of law... Any regime that rides roughshod on these principles loses its democratic legitimacy, regardless of whether it initially won an election".
The Economist Intelligence Unit's democracy index identifies 4 categories of regime : full democracy, flawed democracy, hybrid and authoritarian. The index only awarded full democracy status to Mauritius, a quiet achiever with strong rule of law.
I wonder where Fiji would be placed in this framework of analysis following 8 years of military dictatorship and the installation of " true" democracy after holding an election?
Like Mauritius is Fiji a full democracy now?
Sincerely,
Rajend Naidu

Nah, Fiji is not a full democracy. Under Bainimarama and Khaiyum Fiji has been turned into " FOOL" democracy. Fooling has become the new norm of governance.
