# BREAKING NEWS. THE NEW ERA UNDER THE COALITION. GOVERNMENT BY BLACKMAIL.

Posted on April 24, 2024 23 Comments

The corruption at the top of the Coalition is breathtaking. The reinstatement of Aseri Radrodro as Minister for Education is proof conclusive that it is government by blackmail and an all- out assault on the integrity of the state. How Sitiveni Rabuka can be pictured shaking hands with the man who anally raped his daughter and almost killed her … [Read more...] about # BREAKING NEWS. THE NEW ERA UNDER THE COALITION.

# UH-OH. THAT WASN’T MEANT TO HAPPEN

Posted on April 24, 2024 13 Comments

John Rabuku – the illegal Acting DPP – and the illegal judge, Alipate Qetaki, would have had a sickening feeling in their bowels today with the news that their appointments won’t be rubber stamped after all by Salesi Temo as President of the Supreme Court but decided by a trio of distinguished expatriate judges. Justice Sir Terence Arnold, … [Read more...] about # UH-OH. THAT WASN’T MEANT TO HAPPEN

# THE GCC REPORT: A BLUEPRINT FOR POTENTIAL DIVISION AND CONFLICT

Posted on April 24, 2024 15 Comments

The restoration of the Great Council of Chiefs is one of the Coalition's signature achievements yet also threatens to be hugely divisive, judging from some key elements of the long-awaited report into the GCC by a review panel headed by the former RFMF officer and Canberra academic, Dr Ratu Jone Baledrokadroka. The report finds that the … [Read more...] about # THE GCC REPORT: A BLUEPRINT FOR POTENTIAL DIVISION AND CONFLICT

Posted on April 23, 2024 23 Comments

Australia's ABC Four Corners television program has broadcast a startling and illuminating expose of the methamphetamine trade that has particular resonance in Fiji as the country struggles with its own challenges with meth, especially in our schools. The issue is front page news in today's Fiji Times (see below) and rarely a day goes by … [Read more...] about # THE PERNICIOUS REGIONAL TRADE IN METHAMPHETAMINE

# THE RFMF COMMANDER WITH HIS HEAD IN THE CLOUDS

Posted on April 22, 2024 15 Comments

You really have to wonder about Major General Ro Jone Kalouniwai and his notion of leadership. He is charged under the 2013 Constitution - which the RFMF helped formulate - to ensure the "security, defence and well-being of Fiji and all Fijians". That means using his position to ensure that every Fijian - irrespective of ethnicity and religion - … [Read more...] about # THE RFMF COMMANDER WITH HIS HEAD IN THE CLOUDS

About Grubsheet

Graham Davis
Grubsheet Feejee is the blogsite of Graham Davis, an award-winning journalist turned communications consultant who was the Fijian Government’s principal communications advisor for six years from 2012 to 2018 and continued to work on Fiji’s global climate and oceans campaign up until the end of the decade.

 

Fiji-born to missionary parents and a dual Fijian-Australian national, Graham spent four decades in the international media before returning to Fiji to work full time in 2012. He reported from many parts of the world for the BBC, ABC, SBS, the Nine and Seven Networks and Sky News and wrote for a range of newspapers and magazines in Australia, New Zealand and Fiji.

 

Graham launched Grubsheet Feejee in 2011 and suspended writing for it after the Fijian election of 2014, by which time he was working at the heart of government. But the website continued to attract hits as a background resource on events in Fiji in the transition back to parliamentary democracy.

 

Grubsheet relaunches in 2020 at one of the most critical times in Fijian history, with the nation reeling from the Covid-19 crisis and Frank Bainimarama’s government shouldering the twin burdens of incumbency and economic disintegration.

 

Grubsheet’s sole agenda is the national interest; the strengthening of Fiji’s ties with the democracies; upholding equal rights for all citizens; government that is genuinely transparent and free of corruption and nepotism; and upholding Fiji’s service to the world in climate and oceans advocacy and UN Peacekeeping.

 

Comments are welcome and you can contact me in the strictest confidence at grubsheetfeedback@gmail.com

 

(Feejee is the original name for Fiji - a derivative of the indigenous Viti and the Tongan Fisi - and was widely used until the late 19th century)
