Posted on October 8, 2024 25 Comments

Reports from Levuka speak of community disquiet and outrage that Lynda Tabuya - the multi-millionaire Queen of Tarts and Minister for Bonking and Weed - is to be the official guest at Fiji Day celebrations where it all began - the site of the signing of the Deed of Cession in 1874. Grubsheet can't find an official announcement on social media or … [Read more...] about # IS THIS TO BE THE LATEST INSULT FROM THE COALITION? (UPDATED WED AM)

# COMING SOON. WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW ABOUT RABUKA’S ROLE IN 2000. BUT WILL HE TELLS US THE WHOLE TRUTH?

Posted on October 6, 2024 37 Comments

The plans for a Truth and Reconciliation Commission hide an uncomfortable fact - that many people involved in the events of 1987, 2000 and 2006 don't want the truth revealed at all. Because it would expose a whole lot of hitherto secret agendas and unmask some of the plotters who have yet to be unmasked. Coming soon, the precise details of what … [Read more...] about # COMING SOON. WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW ABOUT RABUKA’S ROLE IN 2000. BUT WILL HE TELLS US THE WHOLE TRUTH?

# READ ANY GOOD BOOKS LATELY, LYNDA?

Posted on October 5, 2024 14 Comments

Headline of the week was surely the Fiji Times front page revealing that the data Fijians chew up watching pornography is the equivalent of reading 100-million books. We keep using the old term "only in Fiji" in all sorts of contexts these days. Yet only in Fiji would the Co-Chair of the government's Task Force on Pornography not only be a porn … [Read more...] about # READ ANY GOOD BOOKS LATELY, LYNDA?

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)
