Fiji Politics and Government

The inside story of political and social evolution of Fiji is here told by one of those at the heart of the process.

He held several important portfolios and was also Speaker. Finally he gives an inside view of the military coup of 14 May 1987 and insights into the future of Fiji. Soft cover, 98 pages.
