Power failures

FREQUENT breakdowns in the supply of power are affecting the day-to-day activities to a great extent. The inconvenience caused as a result of this is not simply explainable. Everyone gets affected when suddenly the power goes off without any warning. If your ailing infrastructure is to be blamed, you must take steps to fix them. The planned shutdown is no problem as people are informed in advance to be prepared for it. And natural forces are something we all understand, but, under normal circumstances, we don’t expect the power to be lost so frequently. So, we hope that things are improved upon to make our life less problematic. Thank you.

FijiFirst flyer

AMAZING that the FijiFirst party had decided to use The Fiji Times as a medium for their candidate application flyer (FT 29/6). ANTHONY SAHAI Auckland, NZ

It’s about humanity

TWO young primary school girls were refused entry into a bus. How much is the bus fare? What trauma did the girls go through? The bus driver could have used his discretion and allowed the children on the bus. It’s about humanity.

Too many phones

DID anyone count the number of phones beside our AttorneyGeneral while pictured at the Fiji Institute of Accountant pre-budget consultation ( P2, FT 27/06). Must be the busiest man in Fiji and the Pacific. SAILOSI NAEWE Nausori

Little India

I WALKED the streets of Ba for the first time last Wednesday, including the bus stand and market. Next time I get the urge to go to India, I will just go to Ba. And so should all other Fijians who want to experience India. I think I may have just increased interest in local tourism to Ba. I am going to have to send the Ba Town Council an invoice soon!

Without invitation

WHENEVER a person who has a significant standing in society makes a comment, questions are sent to “he or she” for their comments. Usually, there are no responses. But when “he or she” makes a comment, though questions are not sent to anyone, a barrage of responses arise. Without any invitation. MOHAMMED IMRAZ JANIF Natabua, Lautoka
