Love and care
IT is often the trend to visit the needy during Christmas and other religious occasions. If you really felt for the needy you would do it all year round. Seti just saying.

Girls hostel
I was just wondering why doesn’t the management of the St Mary’s Girls hostel ask the FijiFirst Government to repair, refurbish and finance this hostel for the girls from remote villages on Vanua Levu instead of closing it down altogether? If not let the Minister for Education know your problems and see what he can do.

New hotel
I believe it will stand out like a sore thumb in the middle of Shirley Park when completed (FT/19/12/15). Oh how majestic a sight it would have been overlooking the McDonald’s, welcoming all into the Sugar City, if only.

To do list
According to my observation, New Year’s resolution is a “to do list” for the first week of January. Kaila!

Save mangroves
While travelling to Rakiraki I came across a hotel which seems to be very popular with local people. While the hotel continues to develop, I believe it also is damaging and cutting mangroves in that area. I fully support all development but most of the time the future generations pay for our wrongdoings. Anyway I thought it was illegal to cut mangroves!

Politics
IN the New Year I hope we will have better politics in Parliament. Looking back in time I see that the old style of bickering and heckling is still well and alive in the modern Parliament. One of my cane farmer friends said, “boss, no profit yar”. What he meant was there has been no improvement in the behaviour of our elected members. Sad eh…

No English
WE went to a new shop in Lautoka to buy some engine oil and other parts. When inquiring about the things we needed we found out that the three Asian gentlemen could not speak any English. I turned to Allen to help me understand what they tried to tell us but to my surprise he even did not understand anything. I am just wondering how are some people allowed to open new businesses in Fiji when they can’t speak simple English.
