Saiyad Khaiyum revenue raising

This “Duel Citizenship” is another marshmallow idea to justify that they are actually earning their keep. Former Fiji residents at a fee of $3000 can now have Fiji citizenship after the approval of dual citizenship was recently put through promulgation by Iloilo. It wasn’t difficult to work out why this soft easily fixed idea was put through promulgation. “Put through promulgation by Fiji’s President” sounds very impressive for an idea put forth to score Brownie points and raise revenue for an ailing illegal government. Its peanuts in dictatorship land because all that is required is the big OK from the big boss, dictator Frank Bainimarama! If the country wasn’t ruled by a dictator we the former residents of Fiji would pay double the amount for that privilege so as to give back to the country that has given us so many happy memories. Under the current situation Khaiyum and Iliolio can forget about it, we are not interested as it is not in our best interest to do so while Fiji is a dictatorship and the justice system way out of wack! Those of us that held on to our Fiji passports have recently renounced it for citizenship of our adopted country because of Fiji’s political crisis. What was wrong with the old law, “born in Fiji come and stay as long as you like on the condition you weren’t employed as that would be taking jobs away from its citizens?” After retirement most of us would like to make it our second home so that law was fine. All they are doing is allowing former residents the chance to be employed, taking jobs away from locals. We call for some real action taken on issues which aims for progress in making it easier for civil society, the main issue for me is keeping the thousands of children at school to finish their education. At present there is no better investment then that bestowed on children’s education for they are our leaders of tomorrow. These illegal ministers, or this illegal cabinet should restrain themselves from scoring Brownie points and if want to justify their existence should get on with the task of solving the difficult issues for the betterment of Fiji and its people. Some of the “soft marshmallow ideas” and no doubt we will be getting more! Duel citizenshipMarriage age now 18Cabinet approves abolishment of three external examinations.
