Illegal and Treasonous Sharon Smith Johns "manages relations" on Facebook

Taxpayers and citizens of Fiji should know just how well spent their hard earned taxes are being spent while many citizens brave the elements, the food shortages and the long-term impacts of the recent natural disasters.

Now that the illegal, treasonous and utterly incompetent Permanent Secretary for Information, Mz Sharon Smith Johns has time on her hands due to more valuable taxpaying dollars being wasted and outsourced to the likes of Tina C Jeon and Solomon Levine to cover up for her ineptitude, Smith Johns shows the world as to why she was never cut out for management in the first place.

And right here folks, presented in all its glorious gore is the calibre of a supposed high ranking "guvment" official re-living her (sad) adolescent years on a public Facebook forum and possibly even breaching the Public Service Commission's crystal clear guidelines for using social media.

As for QORVIS, the illegal and treasonous military regime's spin chiefs, they become more exposed with each passing day, and it appears that global citizens are actively monitoring their every move, which includes tracking them edit Wikipedia profiles of their clients and staff.

Growth prospects downgraded

As usual, the illegal and treasonous military regime will cue their minions to to push every angle except the truth.

Now the elements are being fingered as responsible for our economic woes.

Fiji’s growth prospect likely to be affected: review
Friday, February 03, 2012


Fiji’s growth prospect for the economy this year is expected to be affected states the Reserve Bank’s latest economic review.


This is due to the possible weakening in Fiji’s trading partner demand and adverse impact from the recent floods in the western division.


Flooding has affected the agriculture, wholesale and retail, construction and - electricity and water sectors greatly.


And the Eurozone economy is expected to enter into a mild recession this year while growth for both advanced and emerging economies are expected to slow down which will have an impact on the Fijian economy.


The Reserve Bank says the latest data on sectoral performances in the last quarter of 2011 has shown mixed results.


RBF says while output from the sugar industry and visitor arrival remains buoyant; gold, electricity generation and construction activity fell further in the review period.

TVNZ: Russian aid to Pacific must be open: Rudd

Published: 10:09AM Wednesday February 01, 2012 Source: AAP

Australia's Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd has stressed to his Russian counterpart the need to be transparent with the development assistance it gives to Pacific island nations, amid ongoing concerns Moscow is using aid to buy diplomatic support in the region.

Rudd met Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Sydney yesterday.

With Lavrov due to visit Fiji later this week, Russia's role in the South Pacific was high on Rudd's agenda.

Russia has been accused of giving vast sums of money to Pacific island nations like Tuvalu and Nauru in exchange for those countries recognising the sovereignty of the disputed territories of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, which are officially part of Russia's enemy Georgia.

The claims last year prompted the Australian Government's Parliamentary Secretary for Pacific Island Affairs, Richard Marles, to accuse Russia of "cheque-book diplomacy" that could undermine efforts to eradicate poverty in the region.

There are also fears Russia's dealings with Fiji could set back the diplomatic campaign to coax the country's military regime to restore democracy.

Rudd stressed to Lavrov yesterday the importance of maintaining democratic norms in the region.

"They discussed the engagement many countries have with Fiji, and Rudd explained Australia's engagement, which includes substantial development assistance," a summary of the meeting provided by Rudd's office said.

"He stressed the importance of transparency in development assistance with the region."

The pair also discussed the worsening bloodshed in Syria.

Australia and other Western governments want the United Nations Security Council to pass a resolution adopting an Arab League peace plan that calls on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to resign and hand power to his deputy.

But Russia has signalled it will use its permanent member veto powers to sink the resolution and has offered a softer alternative resolution.

"Mr Lavrov explained the Russian approach to the issue, reflected in its draft resolution before the Security Council," the summary reads.

"Mr Rudd explained that Australia supported the resolution presented by the Arab League which contains elements in common with the Russian draft and calls for measures to be implemented against the Syrian regime, and for Assad to hand over power to his deputy."

An estimated 5400 Syrians have been killed since anti-government unrest broke out in March last year.

In October, Rudd took aim at Russia and China for using their veto powers to block a resolution demanding Assad's regime end its crackdown on anti-government rebels.

"China and Russia must now bear a particular responsibility for persuading Syria to end the violence and implement meaningful change," he said at the time.

Ratu Tevita Mara: The dictator Bainimarama threatens Namosi Land Owners with the military.

A source from the PM’s office has revealed to me the details of the meeting that took place between the illegal ruler of Fiji and the Land owners of Namosi. In his opening address to the Land owners the illegal self appointed Prime Minister said “The last thing I want to see is this situation prolonged and having to send the military up there to sort it out”

Bainimarama announced to the country when he was on his last overseas jaunt he would take over the negotiations between the land owners and the Newcrest Joint Venture Company. We now know why. If any one else handled the negotiations the Land owners might get their way and deprive Bainimarama and Khaiyum of their big Mining payoff.

This is not negotiating as we know it. This is negotiating Dictator Style. This is where the dictator tells the rightful landowners of Namosi they have no say in the future of their province, because Bainimarama and his soldiers call all the shots. This is hard evidence that Fiji is ruled by the power of the gun.

I was sent the following from my source. “Dou ciqoma na veivakatorocaketaki e kauta tiko yani na matanitu, ena kalougata kina na nomudou vanua, vakavure cakacaka kei vakaduri bisinisi eso. Kena toso tiko ga na vakaduduile e sana keitou sana muri tale edua na gaunisala kaukauwa na matanitu. Nai otioti ni ka au via raica ke mani toso tikoga na leqa oqo keitou sana vakaqiqica yani e cake qori na mataivalu."

An English translation is below, “You people accept development this Regime is bringing to your province, your province will be blessed by it, and it will bring employment and business as well.  If you continue with your indifferences against this regime, we will take a harder approach. The last thing I want to see is this situation prolonged and having to send the military up their to sort it out”

The land owners have nowhere to turn. The Government spin doctor Sharon Smith Johns is trying to portray Bainimarama as the saviour of the Fijian people. She is trying to tell us that he is the only prime minister who has ever worried about their development and invested in infrastructure in rural areas. That is patently not true and here in a closed meeting we learn the true colours of a dictator. “Do as I say and I will give you things. Don’t do as I say and I will give you a bullet.”

Bainimarama does not believe in land owners rights in Namosi. His puppet master Khaiyum has convinced him all minerals belong to the government and so the regime can do what it wants and to hell with the Namosi Landowners.

This is a very difficult situation for the Namosi Land owners. How do they save their province, how do they save their fields, how do they save their rivers, how do they save their way of life? If they try and they will be shot for their troubles. 

Taking the dictators approach forward what does it say for the constitutional discussions that are supposed to happen this year? What happens when a participant pushes for something the Dictator does not want? 

Bainimarama will use the same negotiating tactic. “Shut Up or I will send the military to pick you up and take you to the camp!”

People of Fiji understand there will be no free and fair elections in 2014. We have seen in January how the dictator manipulates votes and then if he does not get the right result he uses government backed institutions to punish the “guilty” party.

We see here how Bainimarama negotiates dictates an outcome. It will be the same in 2014 the negotiated constitution will be so in his favour the result is a foregone conclusion. And if by chance the result goes against Frank he will simply take over the country with the military once again.
