- Ethnic Unrest (2000): Failed businessman-cum-politician George Speight has been remarkably successful in his forceful takeover of the Fijian government.

He has held the small island's ethnic Indian PM hostage for weeks, hailing himself the chosen leader of Fiji's indigenous population. We get daily doses of Speight's vision of a new Fiji, a "political system that enshrines indigenous supremacy." But is the ethnic conflict the only reason for this violence, or is the battle really over Fiji's mahogany goldmine?

Fiji is still dealing with domestic and foreign corporate polluters...
Who built Fiji on their Blood Sweat and Tears. ?
Who built Fiji's Commerce and Industries?
Who are the backbone of Fiji Economy ?

Look who's talking ??
Dated documentary. Things went downhill for Speight soon after. According to Wikipedia:
'On 18 February 2002, Speight was sentenced to death after pleading guilty to a charge of treason. However the government of the Prime Minister Hon. Laisenia Qarase had abolished the death sentence in the House of Representatives on the day that Speight was sentenced. President Ratu Josefa Iloilo, who had replaced Mara following the coup, followed the advice of the Prime Minister and commuted Speight's sentence to life imprisonment. Speight started serving his sentence on Nukulau Island where he had been living out his exile. Following the decision of the Military government to close the Nukulau facility Speight was transferred on 20 December 2006. He is currently serving out his sentence at the Naboro Maximum Security Prison."
Qarase did not abolish the death penalty but the 1997 Consitution. Bainimarama & Chaudary has since conducted the misguided 2006 coup and must be jailed for this crime. George got it right when saying indigenous rights were threatened and given the destruction of their rights since Bai & Khaiyum took power, the itaukei must work hard to get rid of this corrupt and racist government and throw them in jail for treason.
@@willtamani1765 ...
Look who's talking ??
Bainimarama's overthrow of Racist Govt. of Qarase has put Fiji on an even kneel. Has there ever been any racial disharmony since then ? No . !!
Qarase was making anti Indian Laws .
Has Bainimarama done anything like that ?? No ??
@@prophet1782 What racist laws has qarase made? Im not asking to argue Im asking to be educated
@@wama2002 He was going to. Re land. It was all in the news then.
I'm not getting into the details. And i'm not going there.
Coalition has formed The Govt.
They should run the nation.
{ Don't get me wrong. It won't be easy for them. FFP will be a very Strong Opposition.
They will Attack The Coalition Govt. left right and centre in Parliament. And Coalition will have serious problems}
The Coalition instead of Tit for tat should be wary of that. I'm not taking sides .
I believe that "Mud Slinging" between both Parties must end.
Have to give a big thank you to Rabuka , Speight and his mates who showed to the Fiji Indians that there are much larger opportunities and greener pastures aboard. Where respect is earned based on your intelligence, hard work and ability and not on ethnicity. Where buying land and building your own house is as easy as buying car, and the land and house is yours till you sell it.
the land belongs to the fijians, they historically lived close to the land and water. It is not your place to impose another life style on them. whow!
You're right, legal racism is not only wrong, but counter-productive , it divides people. No-one asked to be born in one land or another.
@@bissetttom1738 historically land will always have belonged to someone else, what your point, no one is imposing their lifestyle on anyone.
Thank you for speaking your mind. It is what it is. You win some, you lose some, don't you?
Brother, we Fijian Indians (we are NOT Fijians) are one of a kind, a special group of people who were bought, ringfenced on a random island over a century ago and left to defend ourselves against slave masters and the indigenous people of the land the Fijians on whom, we were imposed.
Open racism in Fiji was something I grew up with as Fijians looked indifferently at us across every facet of government policy right down to how we functioned every day as citizens, we were effectively shoved off as second class citizens, and, nothing has changed as far as I hear.
However, as you rightly mentioned, as the extremism of people like Rabuka and Qarase took hold of Fiji, our people RELUCTANTLY moved to places where our collective wealth has simply skyrocketed, my family went from 1 house in Fiji to 20 houses in NZ, a shopping mall as well, extended family members have 10X'd their wealth in Australia, USA and so on.
It is funny how things work out in life however it saddens me to this day, that many, many decades after the Rabuka terrorist uprising, we seem to have fallen further and further into division.
PM Bainimarama is a man well ahead of his time, a humble pragmatist who has nothing but the progress of his country at heart and he drives things very clearly on an equal opportunities based mandate.
However, he now seems to have created legions of Fijians who think he is pro Fijian Indian based on his deputy being Indian.
I feel this hate filled merry go round will never, ever stop in Fiji as once the Indian targeting stops, the Fijians begin imploding amongst themselves as tribes clash to establish their own mandate.
In the meantime, Fijian Indian kids are graduating from Universities across the world, becoming leading heart surgeons, engineers, business people and owners of hundreds of thousands of properties, collectively.
It is what it is, it was what it was.
If people are salty about indian and Chinese living in Fiji, blame the Fijian chief ancestors leaders and British at the time not Indian or even later generation of Indians who were born there. These leaders made that decision for whatever reasons, they could have been naive, weak or corrupt or not intelligent enough to see if you bring in and let so many people into your country you have to accept them into the system.
People, the British wanted cheap labor. After slavery ended, the British went to India and replaced the Africans with India laborers who treatment was very demeaning. Wherever, the British had slavery in the world, they replaced the African with thousands of Indians.
I think they are worried that their homeland is stolen and that their history will be erased and their faces replaced like what has happened to The Hawaiian Indigenous or what is happening to the Indigenous People of PNG. It's like the black skin natives with Afros who originally inhabit the islands have all been targets for foreigners to wipe out and replace with "new faces". These new faces then attempt to erase not only the natives themselves but their history. Milking the land and resources in the process yet claiming it's to help the peoples (who have survived 1000s of yrs on these islands without help) and not to satiate their greed. I find it funny that people act appalled when natives choose to arm themselves or protect thier homelands. Most of these nations that spawn the people that engage in such colonial activities all build powerful weapons themselved so the same situation doesnt happen to them, which means they know it's wrong because they dont want to happen to them in their Homelands what they do to others in theirs, yet they still do it. It also appears that when they do they love to target the natives with Black skin and afro hair texture no matter where they are on the planet... Imagine if it was the opposite. I wonder if people would keep their views if it was their native Country, City, Town, etc. that was being Politically, Economically and Militarily controlled by foreign powers.
@@mikaelblakwater3008 there is a difference between takeover through legal ways and illegal. If a small country accepts a certain number of refugees and some generations later they take over the country is different to a forced military takeover of the country. I would be more angry at leaders who sold out their country and assuming a somewhat democracy the people have voted for this. With a foreign military takeover you cannot be angry unless you didn't put up a fight.
@@shizzynwa A takeover is a takeover legal or illegal it is a take over... If Nigeria took over India how do you think the people would feel... if it was sold by the Indian government legally would that alter the peoples views and make it acceptable... what does political ideology have to do with taking over a person's homeland.. I can understand the apprehension of the Natives especially given the history of what has happened to black natives around the globe.
@@mikaelblakwater3008 Because legal takeovers is not a takeover is a result. One is through force other through participation. That's like saying rape and consensual is the same thing if the end result is you get f..ked.
It's ironic that most people who supported the coupe in 2000 are the same ones who now rage against Bainimarama for carrying out the coupe of 2006. Momoedonu's earlier warning seems almost prophetic.
Momoedonu would have been a better prime minister . a man respected , chaudry knowing the sensitiveness of the Fijians would have made himself agricultural minister
The truth is that everyone will be corrupt, and everyone will work with their own self interest, might as well make the most out of the corruptness while they still do their good with it's people, yes I dont like it but the ffp are doing things no other gvt had done before, education is free and that's the best thing this country needs!

He never took over the Fijian government. He made an attempt to do so.
Speight was used by big business owners in the country. Who didnt want Chaudhary to open the investigation to the general public. Millions of dollars went down the drain from NBF.

I love your documentary about Fiji... Thanks a lot for the great information which will be of a great reference for the future historians
👍It’s pretty cool to see men in skirts & skirt suits (as opposed to pants suits like other countries). I hope the Fijians can work out their problems. 💞
Yes we do
All Island countries wear them! Yes even here in America Hawaii😉
The other countries in the South Pacific have their own versions too in terms of kilt-like male skirts.

Its hard for a nation with the majority population of two ethnic groups with strong beliefs for their own traditions. This is what separates the people of Fiji which is Traditionalism.
Hi. I hope FijiIs like before were Indians Fijian can be living happyer together. I pray for Peace for all the People of FIJI. Marry Christmas . And. To all the People of Fij. God bless all. Bye for now lvana Prasad 🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💡💡💡💡💡♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

The same thing they did for 1000s of yrs before you arrived. Survive. Live. Figure it out.. Imagine if tables were turned. Would you say the same?
Speight had a grudge against PM Mahendra Chaudhary. Speight was involved in some shady deal involving Timber/logging business. Chaudhary called an inquiry .While in captivity PM and his son who was his Personal Secretary were taken aside and roughed up. They kicked Chaudhary's knees. Speight came smiling and stopped them pretending he was not part of it. Later Chaudhary required knee surgery in Sydney. Speight is still rotting in jail. He also has Psychotic symptoms. He snaps to psychotic rages. Threatened all the captives with death .
I was wondering , what happened to Speight . Is he ever going to get released ?

Fiji is a paradise...alrhough its been in trouble for a while ... but now its another sort of problem coupled with old wounds ... today , its a foreign penetration and unwanted pervasion of its unique identity ....
Country is fine, people are okay, but the leaders sometimes can be something else.
A paradise for Fijian chiefs and for the military.
The Fijians are very good people but easily fooled by thier leaders. They fail to realise that the Indians didn't colonize or invade Fiji. It's the British who colonised thier country. Just as British colonised India and took all the wealth and natural resources back to the UK, the British did the same in Fiji. They took all the resources and wealth back to UK. They converted native Fijian land to freehold and they treated the natives and the indians very badly. But for some reason, the Fijians love the British but don't like the Indians. If they realise what the British did to them and thier country. Indians have never invaded or colonised another country. It's the British and Muslims who always invade and colonise other countries as they did in India.
What country are you from? Did you learn anything in history?
George Speight only do that, because we want only us fijian the Indigenous people of Fiji, to lead our Country. Because we are the owner of the Island not Indian
Because ur George speight knows very well that he can fool indigenous people....
@@Daisy-44 duh! Of course
+Ratu I am Indian from India and fyi, we have more military personnels of 1 command tham your complete population. Stop this b*llsh!t otherwise we Indians will start visiting there very often. We have accommodated a very huge outsider population in our country. We are always ready to take all Indian hindus in Fiji and I will ask this to my govt in personal capacity if all the christians and muslims will leave India. I know, a lot of human right activists will be invoked by evangelists and madarsa people. Stop this racism you trash.
I agree with G Speight 💯
But speight is a kailoma lol
Fiji should be for the Fijians first before anybody else and should be controlled by the indigenous Fijians. Indians can’t be in charge of someone else’s country just because they call themselves Fijians. They are not Fijian.
Where did you come from?? You didn’t pop up during the last volcanic eruption hence you call yourself Fijian. I am sure you know how the Indians got there. I am a third generation. My parents were born there , I was born there so whether you like it or not I am Fijian by birth. My father left for greener pastures in 1975 with our family and at the time I was 5 years old . I have never been to Fiji . My allegiance lies to the country where I was educated and pay my taxes . My ancestors never stole anything from anyone if anything they worked hard to achieve. Thanks to my father’s decision to leave Fiji and his resilience, dedication and hard work made us multimillionaires and we live a very lavish lifestyle abroad. Instead of making idiotic comments it’s time to move on . If you live overseas maybe you should go back and assist the current government in eradicating poverty ( 60% of Fijian population living under poverty line ) assist in reducing crime , including sexual crimes, assist in eradicating drug issue particularly amongst the younger generation otherwise you will be dealing with zombies for generations to come and that will be not help the country progress. You may want to help with climate change ( some of the villages are already overrun by rising sea levels. You probably don’t know but pre 1987 coup Fiji was a thriving middle income earning economy, today it is a poor country. You may not know the brain drain from Fiji was immense.A lot of prominent and educated Fijians, Indo Fijians , Chinese Fijians and Part Europeans left the country.Please don’t blame Indians for your financial woes and mismanagement over the years. I am hoping a lot of Fijians understand what I am talking about. There is no disrespect to anyone.
these keyboard warriors are overstayer or decendants of overstayers overseas. They have never contributed a cent towards fiji's development and first. Fiji for fijians well said...my passport says Fijian as well
There needs to be a common ground between iTaukei and Indians. It's embarrassing to think Fijians should only be in power. That's a very divisive mentality. Before colonization, our forefather were literally at war with each other trying to fight for power and this has lasted for thousands of years and we've never been able to unify. We need to change this because obviously it has brought us nowhere. Fijians can't even work together, we are always at each others throats yet you want Fiji for only fijians and only controlled by fijians. We were damn warlords in pre colonial times! We need to get away from these old mentalities and concepts, and move forward with a more unified vision for Fiji.
You still follow the Westminster government system, from Britain. Your entire country is built by foreigners. Sit down and let the mire advanced peoples lead.
Y’all... this was 20 years ago... was in Fiji in February 2019... and although the foreign companies that operate there still need to give more back to the island for what they take from it, the island seemed very stable and happy, even outside of the resorts.
i was there in April 2019 the country was stable. And everyone seemed happy and productive!!!
it's a mystery as to why that is
And now a secondary school dropout leading fiji🤦♂️🤦♂️so corrupted
The main culprit here is the British they have taken people from the Indian sub-continent and scattered them all over the globe under the system of 'indentured labour'. When the British left at the collapse of their empire they did not leave with the people they brought then creating the conditions of tensions and conflict between the Indians and the indigenous populations. The British have done this in the Carribean, in Guyana, in Tanzania, in Kenya, in South Africa, In Malawi, in almost the entire southern Africa and in all its former colonies.
It cannot be claimed that the government is legitimate and democratic when the entire cabinet is made up of people of foreign origin. The Indians in Fiji have no one to blame except themselves, it seems, for not having made efforts to foster good relations with the indigenous Fijians. The Land belongs to the indigenous Fijians not to the farce foreign legion who came in Fiji in the 19th century!

Yes the natives should have the land right .who came first the the people of lau or the people bau . Only we can have, one Native of Fij late Adi Mary vision of Fiji was , to have equal freedom to the people of Fiji , late Ratu lala sukuna had his own Vision to take the land from the poor and make money for him self till today, thank you.
That's great. The indigenous people should be in charge of their country. Labelling him as a failed businessman rather than focusing on what he is fighting for. Good. Fiji for the Fijians. the Indians would take over and treat the indigenous as second class citizens
You racist
@@tusheerdatt3441 how can that be racist, when there is only one race in this whole wide world known as the human race?
… trust a Frenchman to speak of foreigners taking over 🤡
Keep that same energy with Australia, New Zealand, USA and Canada?
The indigenous people of Fiji are the plants and animals. They were living in the country first. The Fijians immigrated to Fiji and took over the country from the plants and animals. The Fijians are treating plants and animals like second class citizens in their own country. The Fijians should leave Fiji and give the country back to the rightful owners - the plants and animals.
He took it like man ....and was asked more than hundreds times who all was behind the 2000 coup all he said was no comments....I alone carry out this event
Man, I had just left 2 years prior to this.. my dad was stilllllll there. That’s all it was for that a Indian Fijian was prez!

Most itaukeis and indians are good humans only some are badly brainwashed by dirty politics I urge to each and everyone to never ever get involved in such acts never be brainwashed by any dirty minded self centered politicians politics just be happy love one another work hard so jealousy won't come in your mind and hearts most indians and fijians are peace loving hard working people

George Speigh was not holding the government hostage he was welcoming carnival back
i wonder who is behind this movement.
Modi.
There's always a puppeteer in power behind the scenes
No one stealing there land .we paying them rent for that.
Thank you for this documentary it makes you wonder - how did George Speight have authority to authorize a specialized unit (CRW) from the Military to do his bidding that to me is just big question mark? The Media referenced them as rebel soldiers?? Cause if we look back at the previous new paper articles, this CRW soldiers were brutally beaten to death after the military fought back? from my understanding, a specialized unit (like Fiji's CRW) only take orders from the Military Commander and who was the military commander then - FRANK! So why would a specialized unit take orders from a Civilian, mind you this CRW men from the video and if you check out news footage were not wearing uniform but civilian outings and had weapons, where did the weapons come from - The Military! - Makes you wonder if Frank was behide the 2000 coup himself and George Speight was the puppet and it appears it got out of hand when he had to clean face and then brutally murder his own man (CRW Soldiers) to make himself look good! Remember this are specialized soldiers who are trained as military experts you can easily google what their training consist of, basically they were Fiji's SAS version or SEAL's. Why use them instead of ordinary soldiers? who knows maybe cause their had the training, experience to carry out those task? But still the order still has to come from the Top, i.e Military Commander, this units are specialized to follow procedure orders, if you watch enough military movies, its known fact! Post 2000 coup: Then bring Qarase in and then only to throw him out again in the 2006 coup! 16 years of power - The questions leads back to Bainimarama, however despite all the changes he made for the country - but all the people he used, hurt and death on his hands just for power - it raises a lot of questions. Is it really about the Indigenous Fijians - or was that a front for greed for power! tbh I have not seen our Local Journalist ever question Bainimarama this out of fear and his military power then! There is loop holes that we need to question, and whether are we asking those questions. Either way, we have a new government, it bids to question, are they going to hold our now new opposition leader accountable? or we going to move from that and focus on our future? - My 2 cents input
Also on that note - I have just discovered that the CRW Unit was formed in the RFMF under Sitiveni Rabuka Leadership when he was commander? which again then brings us back how much involvement does both two leaders, both coup leaders have in the 2000 coup? But again this 2023! let's see - the truth always prevails and see how the next four years plays out for both this leaders? Vinaka
there is more than meets the eye.☹

The Fiji people need the help of their African sister and brother around the world.
A bit of anti indigenous propaganda in this video. Blame the British for their colonial strategy of dominance over Fijians in their own country which later immigrants have adopted. Blame them for not assimilating Indians into Fijian culture from the day the Leonidas arrived. George is a revolutionary who has every right to stand up when their rights are not protected by law and threatened.... this is not racism. In hindsight, George was also a visionary because the Indian coup of 2006 had seen the erosion of indigenous rights like never before. Corrupt politicians should be jailed if they threaten indigenous rights. The video is all propaganda by foreign interests and producers should stop this racist nonsense. Too many people talking about Mahogany where they have nothing to do with the land trees and govt policy into harvesting. Speight has outlined well in advance the plan for harvesting Mahony which is no secret..the FLP is full of gossipers who are corrupt..where are they now?
Look who's talking. ?
Fingers crossed we never see Speight or his type and equally, Chaudry and his type must be eliminated forever as well.
THIS IS ALL CHINESE BACKED LOOK AT VIDIOS CHINESE ARE FIGHTING LANDOWNERS DO RESEARCH
“ no more western style democratize elective box, first let’s enshrine indigenous supremacy and then let’s define the role of the OTHER ethnic groups in Fiji”..
As a non Fijian regardless of what I think my opinion does not matter. I hope nothing but the best for fiji.
I remember this guy. Good man
I'm not saying indians are bad, they just too easily grovel to anything with power whether fake or not
Indians are really good peaceful people but can go awry real fast
India to save for last,,,has to be very precise and peaceful
Indians have seen more civilised years then anyone else on this planet. They know peace is the way forward
I gather speight has done Indians a favour as many left Fiji and are successful in other parts of the World, having met few of them. What a brain drain for Fiji.
Today he is rotting in Jail. He will never be released. He did all these to take revenge on the then PM Mahendra Choudhary for calling an enquiry into his corruptness. He personally took PM and his son aside and had them roughed up and was smiling at the feat. The PM needed surgery to his knees.

Soo proud of my dad wen he was in the Army and who kept Rabuka Safe during the coup
I thank your dad too for keeping Rabuka safe . If it was not for him , I would have never left that shit hole 3 decades ago .
Proud?? When Rabuka carried out the first coup he opened the Pandora's box of pure evil. Neighbours became enemies. Indian families were terrorized, beaten and robbed of what they gathered through years of hard work. Nothing was ever "given" to them. They never recieved wads of money for idle ownership of land. During the coup, the lesser known stories are the most horrific, how in rural areas homes were invaded and young Indian girls raped in front of their families by their "fijian brothers". Disgust?? Yes, disgust is what I feel for people who cover up atrocities and ignore the ugly outcome of their actions. Indian students worked hard for their marks, only to have their marks scaled so the lesser marks of Fijian students could be pumped up. I was one of those students and I learnt a new lesson that day. My hard work and sacrifice lost in the face of entitlement. God gave land to all mankind. I'm still searching the bible for where he gave it exclusively to Fijians. Indians never expected anything for free, just fairness in return for hard work and to live with dignity.

It is hard to survive in a third world country for the people, because of its traditional chief like culture and land issues, there's much greed and corruption like any other nation, eg. Philippines or Indonesia etc., God is the Sovreign ruler of all nations, if they only follow His instructions given in the Bible, esp; in the Book of Proverbs. He gave wisdom to Solomon, He is still in the business of giving wisdom to today's leaders of any nation. If we Obey God's commandments, and leaders lead their people to obedience, then and then only will there be peace for everyone, remember the devil has come down like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, if people of the country especially leader give themselves to the devil, there will be hatred and bloodshed, then God's judgements are rampant, we can see how God's judgements are falling all over the places, with natural disasters in every place, this will increase Christ; Who will take on all nations in His hands one day soon and will rule with a rod of iron. He shall come with all of His angels as lightening shines from east to west, we need to fear God, all earthly things are going to vanish. Read Revelation 14th Chapter and 18 chapter. This is a fact. Proverbs 11:14 Amplified Bible "Where there is no [wise, intelligent] guidance, the people fall [and go off course like a ship without a helm], But in the abundance of [wise and godly] counselors there is victory". Proverbs 15:22
Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counselors they are established.

Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly.

Everywhere can't be colonized and owned and operated by colonizers, may Fiji stay predominantly Fijian controlled & benefiting predominantly Fijians.
All indigenous people on all the continents of the world who are displaced or over run by foreigners on their traditional home lands is SO wrong on many levels. Anyone who came onto Indigenous lands as visitors to that land will always be foreigners of that land and should always have respect and for the traditional people of that land period. Money greed and power has created horrific scars spiritually and emotionally for the the only real possession that indigenous peoples of the world had that was the LAND. Evil came to the land $$$$ Money created the deception the gun enforced it and the pen of the foreign laws became the law and sealed the deal. George Speight maybe a criminal in some people's eyes but he loves his people he loves land he loves being traditional indigenous FIJIAN man doing for his people first what is right as true custodians of FIJI his traditional land. Love you Brother Sabu toro👍
Lands don't come out ur mother's ass, it's God gifted land but people like you take advantage of it n become boss ,
Indigenous people failed in their duty to develop their own land. Before the British arrival these people were primitives 😂
Only for greed. See where he ended up. Karma is a bitch.
What Speight is doing for his own people....great and humble man....
exactly. Its all a twisted perspective
fuck ....spaight.
But he's kailoma lol

Wow
The Indians in Fiji represent British colonialism.
Indigenous people of Fiji are supposed to control the country and have the prosperity there
🙏🙏🙏
Why bringing George back why never talk about fiji first government
Don’t care, I’m Fijian. Everyone that was born in Fiji is Fijian. Indian, Chinese, Tongan, Samoan, etc….
You gotta be fucking kidding me , every country is race based. Its common sense. You go to America there are every race eg.African American but proud to have origins from Africa. Atleast be proud where you come from like Indo Fijians have origins from India.
@koena no you're wrong. African American are called African American because of where they are from which is African root's. A fijian cannot gave birth in china/japan/India and their kids can say oh I'm Indian or Chinese or Japanese. Your birth certificate says place of Birth. So Indian will always be India. If they want to call themselves Fijian when First.. build their own school that teaches their own language and culture,rather then learn Fijian language and Fijian culture. That alone tells me that how long they been in Fiji generations after generations they still can't speak Fijian like Fijian and they will never be Fijian.
It’s shame on Fijians as how much educated they are but they can not fulfil their expectations . The example was Ratu Mara , who
cheated his own race .
These settlers must gave gone with the British when Fiji regained it's independence.
Seriously, looking back at all this now. What a disgraceful, embarrassing and dumb moment for such an amazing country.
🙏🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭😭😭😭
Can't stop laughing watching this clip. It's all about MONEY and their greedy
Wait...I don't remember guns being involved????🤔
Some were injured with those guns
They held hostages at gunpoint
All three coup, guns was involved
Because you were busy running
FIJIAN POWER!! FIJIANS HAVE BEEN VERY ACCOMMODATING AND WELCOMING TOWARDS THE INDIANS SINCE THEY CAME TO FIJI. BE THANKFUL AND PLAY YOUR ROLE AND REPSPECT THE OWNERS OF THE LAND!
Etaukei we are called indo fijians because we are citizens of this land.
This is what causes racism and unrest in a beautiful place called fiji ...people like louaiga74 should re educated...we don't need people whole speak out of their ass
@@rondass62 not racism,it's traditional owners. Indians live like Indians,have they're own language and live Indian culture. It is a beautiful place but the facts are,Indians are indians not fijian
The Fijian power😂😂 thanks to that idiotic power all around the western world now I see Fiji Indians in highly professional jobs involved in the development and progress of these western countries and making good of these greener pastures as well. Now guess who are losers. Those still waiting for the lord to drop fridges and tv from the sky because they have some small piece of land
@@gyan8201 ok but that has nothing to do with the tradional owners of the land. That's good you can work hard and achieve many good things,but Indians will never achieve prime ministerial honours in FIJI again-FACTS
Sir realish him and all historical who fortfight our (14provision)milk and honey land in our ancestors blessed land yes 100pacent.

Itaukeis land is still protected they still have more than 90 percent land available for them
Yes That's a fact. But a few anti Indian bad potatoes just can't stop their racist narratives.

Why is he constantly referred to as "failed businessman ".
Kgf.... His shady business deals and his failure was a major issue in the Coupe. The Govt. had called an Inquiry . He had A grudge Against the PM. Mahendra Chaudhary. The Coupe was to stop the inquiry. They used Indigenous Rights as an excuse. "failed businessman" to failed politician to Life in Prison.
@@jaimezardel5544. Serves him right.... You do the crime, you serve the time.
He was never a businessman and this video is just racist propaganda. For example, George does not own any mahogany but bent on making the landowners a fair shareholder in this enterprise. They could not find any proof and look at what is happening in Fiji now. Itaukei losing everything to corrupt Indian businessmen. Chaudary should be ashamed for taking part in the 2006 coup.. damn lying bastard.
@@jaimezardel5544. Are you talking about George Speight?
