# WHO’D HAVE THUNK…

Posted on January 16, 2025 11 Comments

...that little old me would still be worthy of being attacked by the Office of the Director of Prosecutions when I am a grumpy septuagenarian with a modest little unpaid sidekick as a commentator on events in my country of birth. Mind you, they did get my surname wrong. -------------- ------------- No matter. My new-found notoriety … [Read more...] about # WHO’D HAVE THUNK…

# MUTINY ON THE SHIP OF FOOLS

Posted on January 13, 2025 52 Comments

As the Coalition government drifts towards the rocks of next year's election, the Fiji Sun does us all a service today by identifying the 35 crew members of Sitiveni Rabuka's ship of state - his vastly expanded ministry - amid clear signs that leaks have sprouted in the vessel and some of the crew are rebelling. Over at the Fiji Times, the … [Read more...] about # MUTINY ON THE SHIP OF FOOLS

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)
