Think Frank F...Sharon’s real statement to the Media<br />Think Frank First. Statement by Sharon Smut-Jobs, Permanent Secretary for MisInformation, <br /><br />First let me take this opportunity to thank you for your attendance.<br />I wish to address the issue surrounding media coverage regarding Lieutenant Colonel Tevita Mara who is in Tonga. We have applied for extradition but know we are only going through the motions. As you know we have been suspended from both the Forum and the Commonwealth. Our extradition treaty with Tonga was only in place through membership of those organizations. It is so unfair that when you are an illegal government, legal options are not available any more. <br />The media in New Zealand and to some extent Australia have been very prominent in passing on his message of truth. I know all of you in this room don’t like to tell the truth and you are all very grateful to me and my censors for keeping you supplied with lies.<br />I must stress to you that all of us in Government read the blogs to find out the real situation. Even the Prime Minister would read the blogs but unfortunately he has never learnt to read. It is important for us with future political aspirations to read about our failings.<br />The Ministry of Information has nothing positive to contribute to the growth of Fiji. We propagate rumours and stir up emotions to bankrupt this country. Suffice to say local media have fallen into the trap of printing what I say and feeding the people of Fiji false information.<br />The media has been misled by these baseless reports and have been used as a tool to further the interests of the select Group of 2. Khaiyum and his hand puppet Bainimarama. These 2 are well known to be anti Fiji.<br />Let me draw your attention to some examples of this false reporting. <br />Reports have suggested that you have to be very cautious when travelling in Fiji because some of the potholes are as big as house. That is not true the biggest on record was only as big as a bus. <br />I also want to bring to your attention a report that Bainimarama has announced there will be elections in 2014. This is completely untrue and is as believable as when he said we would have elections in 2009 and 2010. As his permanent secretary I advise him against making false statements but he can’t help himself.<br />I want to thank the Australian Government for upgrading their travel advisory. There have been 132 reports of home invasion in the past 2 weeks. Crime is increasing and we do advise all tourists travelling in Fiji to be careful. You need to be like me and travel with a driver and a security guard. My security guard has a big gun and a massive ammunition pouch. He is perfect to take away for long weekends.<br /><br />Why can’t journalists in Fiji counter these lies with the truth. Hold on aren’t we telling the journalists what to write. Message to self, double check what I sent to Peter Lomas of the Sun on Saturday. Did I send him the headline PM: Lies, Lies, Lies<br />As the case of Lieutenant Colonel Mara is before the courts there will be no further comment from government. Please put your hand up if you know the answer. How many times has the government said his departure is of no consequence and we will not mention him again because we are too busy running away with the country’s money. I can’t remember is that the fifth or the sixth time?<br />Let me urge the media to stop using the Ministry of Information as a credible source of information.<br />Let me also urge you today to put Fiji first and support the Pro Democracy movement. <br />Lastly let me urge you to be objective and ‘THINK FRANK FIRST’.Sharon Saysnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7745785272753572871.post-21798660932103241072011-05-31T15:14:26.832+12:002011-05-31T15:14:26.832+12:00This women is just another fling of the Prime Mini...This women is just another fling of the Prime Minister......Husband committed suicide because of her fling... maybe she can enlighten us more...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
