about time someone spoke up about who actually pulled the strings back then. fiji needs proper reckoning, not just hand-waving.

Chloe Martin2026-07-16T05:19:01.000Z

yeah right, like we don't already know who funded that circus. bit rich hearing this now though.

Noah Bennett2026-07-16T05:51:01.000Z

spot on. chaudhry's no saint either. time to move forward.

Noah Bennett2026-07-16T05:27:01.000Z

Chaudhry was a puppet too. whole thing was a mess. doubt we'll ever get the full story.

Tom Harris2026-07-16T06:01:01.000Z

lol cope. the truth always comes out eventually. just you wait.

Tom Harris2026-07-16T05:36:01.000Z

typical local politics - blame game and empty calls. just get on with life ffs.

as a student studying pacific history this is fascinating. hope the media actually digs deeper instead of moving on in a week.

Mason Young2026-07-16T06:46:01.000Z

same, but knowing our media they'll milk it for clicks then drop it.

Sophie Ngata2026-07-16T06:14:01.000Z

poor chaudhry went through hell. race card was played then and it's still being played now. shameful.

Reagan Shaw2026-07-16T07:05:01.000Z

facts. but pacific history deserves better than this bare-minimum reporting.

Mason Young2026-07-16T06:22:01.000Z

read the article on my lunch break - pretty heavy stuff. never realised how deep the coup connections went.

Sophie Ngata2026-07-16T06:56:01.000Z

hate to say it but this whole thread is why fiji can't heal. too much bitterness on all sides.

Luca Reid2026-07-16T07:19:01.000Z

couldn't agree more. race baiting is the laziest politics.

Luca Reid2026-07-16T06:27:01.000Z

hope this doesn't stir up more division. fiji's been through enough. just want peace for our neighbours.
