Retiring citizens flock to Suva
Word from capital Suva is that many 55 years and over who will be retiring from service tomorrow are there to sort out their retirement packages and FNPF monies.
As many count down to their last working day tomorrow, the man responsible for this inhumane wholesale retirement decree order has left Fiji’s shores for Indonesia via Korea.
It has now emerged that Frank decided to leave the troubled rogue state to avoid the expected pustch from within the ranks who’ve been affected by the 55 years compulsory retirement decree and a possible back-lash from the retirees.
Confirmation of UN’s withdrawal from recruiting Fijian soldiers to their peacekeeping programmes has provoked more tension between tyrant Frank and officers within Fiji’s defence and disciplinary forces.
Add to that Fiji’s suspension from the Pacific Forum in a day’s time.
Meanwhile, millions of dollars are expected to shift from the FNPF account to their lump-sum retiring members accounts tomorrow.
Some are expected to bank it, buy shares and unit trust, while others will spend it on a broad range of things that is expected to create abit of economic activity there.
not unit trust of fiji ….. some funny business going on there ….

sheesh..! will there be anything left for us younger folks or will the FNPF coffers dry up after the retirees get their share! With all the loans and investments FNPF has committed itself to, I’m beginnng to wonder if there’s even enough in their kitty to go around this time round. Well, only time will tell. I sure as heck hope my fears are unfounded.
