Prime Minister, Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama has today come out and said that the same group of people who continue to criticize everything the government does, can continue to harp on.

He said there is nothing positive that these so-called experts say about the country and continue to say that Fiji is heading for doom and gloom.

Commodore Bainimarama said many overseas media outlets and other individuals are easily influenced by the comments from the same old critics rather than making their own assessments on the situation on the ground in Fiji.

He said comments that Fiji's industries and the economy are struggling continue to be made but he questions whether they really know what has been happening to the economy over the years.

The Prime Minister also said these critics should know that he is not bothered by what they are saying because he is focused on implementing the social, political, electoral and economic reforms that will bring true democracy in Fiji before the next elections.
