Our version of Big Ben

OUR version of London’s Big Ben stands atop our very own Government Buildings.

It has four faces and the faces are lit and people can tell the time even in the dark.

However, pictures of it that have been published in The Fiji Times over time, has shown it shows different times on the four faces.

When looking back at our sometimes laid-back life which has been referred to as “Fiji time” and the more fancied one called “malua

fever”, I said to myself, “That’s the Fiji time and malua fever that many people live their life by.”

So don’t fix the clock, leave it like that — it’s telling us of our sometimes lazy lifestyle.

And now that we have daylight saving, it’s even gone more malua than ever.

Or should that be totolo?
