Respect ruling party

Simon Hazelman, Savusavu

Social media discrimination and false accusations against the ruling party are rather unfortunate.

It’s obvious that those who had it easy during the Rabuka, Chaudhry, and Qarase governments are the very one’s jumping head-over-heels in anger and envy over the ruling party - the FijiFirst Government.

The so-called elites and those fortunate to know the wheelers and dealers of past governments are the very ones hurting, especially now that they are experiencing reality. They are surely missing what they almost had!

It is quite obvious to see how past MPs took advantage of their positions in government. You see it in their immediate family, their friends, their colleagues, in their villages, their towns, and in themselves.

For the first time ever the screws are being tightened gradually to eradicate corrupt and unethical practices that has plagued our development for decades.

For the first time ever we are experiencing wise and sound judgment. For the first time ever every Fijian is being treated equally. Every country is unique in its own way and every country has to also be managed in its own unique way.

Acceptance of the ruling party is not only necessary but very important for our future.

Showing disrespect to FijiFirst is showing disrespect for the 60 per cent majority of voters. We have an amazing Government in FijiFirst and we need to give our utmost support and respect to what they are ultimately trying to achieve.

You have got to lack perception, sound judgment and awareness not to notice. And you have got to have a low level of intelligence not to understand!

FijiFirst will once gain cruise comfortably through the 2018 elections, so wake up and instead of being a loser, become an improver and an encourager!

You either respect the ruling party and thrive or continue to rebel and strive! Because that’s how long they will reign!
