We have a unified resolve, the army and ourselves to pursue solutions which we believe are in the best interest of our Fijian people.

Public safety remains our principal interest. The Army has demonstrated since 1990 that it can safely destroy these chemical munitions, having already destroyed over 8,000 tons of chemical agent and over 1.3 million munitions without harming human health or the environment.

We're not blowing this off, ... If the Army thinks it's in its interest to investigate something, we will. There are multiple challenges here. One is the anonymity of the sources, dates, times, locations, units, anything that is reasonably identifiable that we can work off of.

This whole crusade is about bringing back the supremacy, or the interests, of indigenous Fijians in ... Fiji.

When you take up an action of this kind, you do it with conviction.

They have always doubted the degree of support I have around Fiji ... what will take place over the next few days is that the support will be made very very loud and clear to the army, and I am of the very firm belief that they will come around.
