Former Prime Minister and the leader for the SDL Party Laisenia Qarase said the Interim Government has failed to deliver good governance and it is time the Interim regime is pressured for an early return to democracy.
Speaking at the launch of the fund and movement for the restoration of democracy in Fiji, Qarase stressed the Interim Government is continuing to make false promises to the international community as well as to the people of Fiji.
National Federation Party General Secretary Pramod Rae questioned the reason behind the 2006 coup saying no satisfactory reasons have been given to prove that the Qarase led Government was not worthy to remain in power.
Former Opposition Leader Mick Beddoes who was also present at the launch highlighted that it is the right time to start such an initiative as someone needs to pressure the interim government.
The newly launched fund and movement for the restoration of democracy in Fiji currently has the support of the Fiji National Council of Women, Pacific Concerns Resource Centre, Fiji Women’s Rights Movement, Fiji Islands Council of Trade Unions, Fijian Teachers Association, United People’s Party, National Federation Party and the SDL party.
