As far as I’m concerned, what I have seen is happening in Fiji is really undermining the rights and aspirations of the people of Fiji and I think what the current regime is doing is not proper.

MP wants Solomon Islands government to help Fiji unions

Posted at 01:38 on 04 March, 2013 UTC

A newly elected MP in Solomon Islands says he will campaign for the government to put pressure on Fiji to ease restrictions on trade unions.

Johnley Hatimoana, who was elected to the Ngella seat in last week’s by-election, is the former general secretary of the Solomon Islands National Teachers Association.

He says the Fiji government is being unfair on unions and he feels the Solomon Islands government could do more to put pressure on the regime.

“As far as I’m concerned, what I have seen is happening in Fiji is really undermining the rights and aspirations of the people of Fiji and I think what the current regime is doing is not proper. It deprives the rights of freedom of association and the freedom of speech and I am going to address that in Parliament.”

    Good on you MP Hatimoana. Its time the Melanesian brothers look at the sitiation in Fiji from the people’s point of view and not from the usurpers’ of power.

    This MP is ignorant and is just a small boy so should keep his mouth shut

    If the MSG continue to support khaiyum’s pet pig bhaini they will be like the fiji military – totally discredited and rejected.

    Hatimoana is a lawfully elected Solomon Island’s MP . He will address the Solomon Islands Parliament on the issue of the Fiji Government’s anti-democratic regime. He is clearly a political leader who does not shy away from stating the prevailing situation in Fiji. All responsible regional leaders should be doing that.
    Now Kai Fiji tell us who the fuck are you!
