The draft constitution that is currently being prepared by the government legal team is bigger than any person in the country and will focus on what is best for Fiji.

Those are the words of Attorney General Aiayz Sayed-Khaiyum in an interview with Fijivillage when we asked him how the government feels about its appointed chairman of the Constitution Commission Professor Yash Ghai’s statements on an anti government blog site where he has expressed serious disappointment with how things have been handled.

We have been trying to speak to Professor Ghai and have left messages at the University of Hong Kong, however, he has not responded.

He also refused to speak to us after the draft constitution was complete although we had sent messages through his staff that he should comment on certain issues as the draft the commission prepared is for the people of the country.

This did not eventuate but the former chairman has spoken to some overseas media outlets.

Sayed-Khaiyum said he cannot say anything about what Professor Ghai is claiming on the blog but he said Fiji has a lot to do from now until 2014.
