  • Elections and Politics in Contemporary Fiji
    Chiefs and Indians: Elections and Politics in Contemporary Fiji Brij V. Lal 1he Republic of Fiji went to the polls in May 1992, its first election since the military coups of 1987 and the sixth since 1970, when the islands became independent from Great Britain. For many people in Fiji and out­ side, the elections were welcome, marking as they did the republic's first tentative steps toward restoring parliamentary democracy and interna­ tional respectability, and replacing rule by decree with rule by constitu­ tionallaw. The elections were a significant event. Yet, hope mingles eerily with apprehension; the journey back to genuine representative democracy is fraught with difficulties that everyone acknowledges but few know how to resolve. The elections were held under a constitution rejected by half of the pop­ ulation and severely criticized by the international community for its racially discriminatory, antidemocratic provisions. Indigenous Fijian po­ litical solidarity, assiduously promoted since the coups, disintegrated in the face of the election-related tensions within Fijian society. A chief-spon­ sored political party won 30 of the 37 seats in the 7o-seat House of Repre­ sentatives, and was able to form a government only in coalition with other parties. Sitiveni Rabuka, the reluctant politician, became prime minister after gaining the support of the Fiji Labour Party, which he had over­ thrown in 1987, and despite the opposition of his predecessor and para­ mount chief of Lau, Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara. In a further irony, a consti­ tutional system designed to entrench the interests of Fijian chiefs placed a commoner at the national helm.

    Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: FJI32160 Country: Fiji Date: 7 August 2007 Keywords: Fiji – Judiciary – 2006 coup – Police This response was prepared by the Research & Information Services Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. This research response may not, under any circumstance, be cited in a decision or any other document. Anyone wishing to use this information may only cite the primary source material contained herein. Questions 1. Current state of the judiciary/police force following the coup. RESPONSE 1. Current state of the judiciary/police force following the coup. There are reports that the Military has detained and abused people: Non-government organisations have voiced their disappointment at recent allegations of people being detained and abused by the military. In a statement yesterday, NGO Coalition on Human Rights chairperson Virisila Buadromo said despite the reassurances by the interim Government to the international community, human rights abuses continued. The coalition called for an immediate end to human rights violations. "The coalition is disappointed that the interim Government continues to insist that human rights are still intact, despite the recent well-publicised cases of gross human rights violations, said Ms Buadromo. "The interim Government says citizens' rights are "intact", but the front page of the daily newspapers lists gross violations, such as cruel and degrading treatment under military detention." She said if the interim regime believed certain people were a threat to national security, those people should be interrogated by the police.

Provincial councils are part of the Fijian Administration, which runs alongside the central government but applies only to indigenous Fijians. The Fijian Administration was introduced by the British colonial administration in the late 1800s as a mechanism for controlling indigenous Fijians. It has undergone several reviews resulting from criticisms that it has failed to fulfill the aspirations of indigenous Fijians.
