Taken on the morning of 23 August 2011, these photos show somebody's dissent
displayed on walls and bus stops along the Suva to Nausori corridor.
Soldiers were seen painting over spray painted words that read "PM YOU LIER"
on a bus stop wall. Other road workers stood at the bus stop on the opposite
side blocking the view of large letters which read "REVOLOTION BEGINS". At
Karsanji Street, a sign mysteriously appeared in the space of 20 minutes
reading "BAINIMARAMA U EVIL LEADER"

MOBILE PHONES IN PNG RURAL VILLAGES 'DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD', SAYS RESEARCHER

http://www.pmc.aut.ac.nz/pacific-media-watch/png-mobile-phones-rural-villages-double-edged-sword-says-researcher-7586

BRISBANE (Queensland University of Technology/Pacific Media Watch): The introduction of mobile phones in rural villages in Papua New Guinea is seen as a double-edged sword, with communities welcoming the opportunity to communicate but fearing it will lead to family breakdowns.

A study by Queensland University of Technology (QUT) researcher Amanda Watson has explored the way new mobile technology, in areas which did not have landline, internet or electricity access, has been changing people's lives, social structures and relationships.

"We are talking about rural areas which had little or no access to modern communication technologies and in many instances were still using traditional forms of communication such as the drum," Watson said.

Watson, who is completing her PhD with QUT's Creative Industries Faculty, said the study of almost 750 people from 10 villages found that while most people were generally positive about the communication benefits of mobile phones, it was how they were using the technology that was most surprising.

"Instead of using mobile phones for business or to improve their economic status, people related the benefits mostly to the enhanced communications they could have with family and friends who were living away from home villages," she said.

"It suggests that social uses of the technology, rather than functional uses such as searching for jobs or coordinating logistics, mark the key benefit felt by rural villagers in PNG."

But Watson said there were also concerns that mobile phone technology was leading to marriage breakdowns.

"For example we were hearing stories about someone seeing their partner engage in a private conversation using a mobile phone, either talking quietly or text messaging, and this was causing jealously and tension within the marriage," she said.

"So there was definitely this feeling that mobile phones were leading to more instances of marriages falling apart."

Watson said there were also difficulties associated with owning mobile phones such as the cost of the calls and the logistical challenges of charging a handset battery without easy access to mains power.

She said by identifying the negatives linked to mobile phones, it was hoped that policy and practices could be introduced to overcome these challenges.

"Efforts to reduce usage costs, enable easier recharging and designing more robust handsets would allow for increased use of mobile phones for a range of purposes," Watson said.

"I think mobile phone services in rural areas present a big change in these places where they've missed out on most steps in the evolution of technology, but it is an important change and worth documenting."

SAMOA'S SAVALI BLASTS 'PROPAGANDA-PROMOTING JOURNALISTS'

http://www.pmc.aut.ac.nz/pacific-media-watch/fiji-samoas-savali-blasts-propaganda-promoting-journalists-7585

APIA (Savali News/Pacific Media Watch): The lack of balanced reporting to the point of promoting regime propaganda in the Fiji media, and the subsequent silence from media freedom groups in the region, has prompted Savali News to issue a statement.

This week, Fiji's trade union bodies asked that country's media outlets not to report what they see as one-sided pro-government news. And that, to either publish balanced news items, or nothing at all.

Pro-regime newspaper Fiji Sun, Radio Fiji and Fiji TV were named by the Fiji Trade Union Congress and the Fiji Islands Council of Trade Unions in a joint press release.

Asked for comment, the editor of the Savali newspaper, Tupuola Terry Tavita, had this to say: "It has been known in regional media circles for some years now that there are many so-called journalists in Fiji who willingly – and actively – promote the military regime there. They come to regional media workshops and bad-mouth the regime then go back home and voluntarily write and promote regime propaganda.

"They're hypocrites.

"Several times, it was suggested to some in the independent Fiji media to make use of regional media networks to go around the government censors. To have their stuff that can't be published in Fiji published elsewhere in the region where media freedom thrives like Samoa and the Cook Islands.

"But they (Fijian journalists) are not interested. They come up with all sorts of excuses instead. I can't believe that in this age of emails, fax machines and phone texting there is absolutely nothing coming out of Fiji. In fact, we only ever read about the truth of what's really going on there from the New Zealand and Australian media.

"It's an insult to Pacific media.The lack of leadership from Fiji-based regional media groups like PINA also contributes to this environment," said the Savali editor.

"I don't blame the Fijian journos too much as they are only taking their cue from the spineless PINA organisation whose executive is also too busy kissing up, and looking for favours, from the Bainimarama regime. You know, when the big crab crawls with a limp, the little crabs limp after him."

But he adds. "The situation in Fiji is like any other crisis elsewhere. There are those who lose out and there are those who position themselves to take advantage of the situation.

"The media also has its share of opportunists. Journalists, editors and news directors who agreeably choose to promote the regime-of-the-day.

"They've become part of the problem, Bainimarama's willing and able soldiers in the media. They've essentially become part of the propaganda machine. The regime's critics become their enemies, and those friendly to the regime become their friends also. You can easily pick that out by what – and how – they publish and broadcast the news.

"In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if many of these Fijian journalists are calling up Bainimarama and suggesting news angles that make him look good.

"Savali newspaper – published by the Samoan government under the Ministry of the Prime Minister and Cabinet – has been critical of the coup-installed regime in Fiji since it took power, December 2006."

[pima.nius] Sir Michael Somare is discharged from hospital

Sir Michael Somare is discharged from hospital

http://www.radioaustralia.net.au/pacbeat/stories/201108/s3300373.htm

Updated August 23, 2011 17:16:21

Papua New Guinea's former Prime Minister Sir Michael Somare has been discharged from a Singapore hospital following a heart surgery 4 months ago and is expected to return in a few weeks' time.

His son Arthur Somare says his father's condition has improved a lot and he's now able to walk and eat well.

He says Sir Michael should be be able to return in time to celebrate PNG's 36 years of independence next month.

Presenter: Firmin Nanol
Speaker: Arthur Somare, son of former PNG Prime Minister Sir Michael Somare

Listen:
Windows Media

SOMARE: From the last time I saw him which was several weeks back before many of the issues started to confront us over here, he was fragile, but his recovery is absolutely fantastic. He is walking, he is eating regular meals, he's certainly got an appetite to start reading again, and keeping himself informed at this stage. And there's clarity there. I wouldn't say 100 per cent, but from a family perspective I am very, very happy with his present recovery. As of yesterday he's checked out of the Singapore hospital, he's now out of Raffles, he has a unit eight minutes away from Raffles from the hospital, he'll be there for a little while longer to ensure that all the appropriate medical care is still with him for that duration of his stay there, and I hope that in the very near future, sometime in the next couple of weeks he'll be back in Papua New Guinea again. So I'm delighted at my father's recovery.

NANOL: Any reaction when you served him the documents and told him about what is happening here, any word from him?

SOMARE: He had been briefed by Sam Abal a while back, and again we don't want to inundate him with work at this particular time, suffering the trauma of three surgeries and then being bombarded.

NANOL: After these four-five months of him being in hospital, we haven't seen any pictures of him since then, you embracing him and hugging him, him sitting on the chair, Sir Michael, that picture you put it out and it came in the front page. I mean that is a big decision the family made to put this picture out, I mean any particular reasons why that was done?

SOMARE: I think it coincides with his recovery from hospital itself. He was checked out yesterday from the Raffles hospital, we are confident that his road to recovery, his health has improved to such an extent that it's now ok to put out a picture as such, and essentially to thank the people of PNG who have been always dedicating him in their prayers. And we're delighted with the response and the support that the whole of the community give him at this particular time to give that support, we just wanted to show to them that the prayers and their thoughts and their kind commitments that they've given over these last four months were not in vain. He has substantially improved in his health, he's not 100 per cent, but he's very much on his way to restoring as good a health as you can after three surgeries.

NANOL: When will we see our old man back, that's the question that people will ask after seeing this picture?

SOMARE: I'm hoping very, very soon, as I said obviously he's still fragile and frail from three surgeries, you would be at the age of 76 years of age. As soon as we are comfortable that he can make that long journey, eight hour by airplane back bai mipela bringim em kam bek.

GOVT HITS OUT AT INTERNATIONAL MEDIA REPORTS

http://www.radioaustralia.net.au/pacbeat/stories/201108/s3299405.htm

MELBOURNE (RA Pacific Beat/Pacific Media Watch): Fiji's peak trade union bodies have asked the country's media not to report what they see as one-sided pro-government news.

The Fiji Trade Union Congress and the Fiji Islands Council of Trade Unions have jointly condemned what they say is the "shutting out" of their views in the state censored media.

They have called on media outlets to either publish balanced items, or nothing at all.

FTUC general-secretary Felix Anthony says the unions are frustrated by what they see as propaganda rather than journalism.

Presenter: Bruce Hill
Speakers: Felix Anthony, FTUC general-secretary; Stanley Simpson, Fiji Broadcasting News director

ANTHONY: Reporting by the media - and in particular the Fiji Sun and Radio Fiji and, of course, Fiji TV News - has totally ignored statements by the trade unions and has gone onto a propaganda mode, just simply promoting statements by the regime. People in Fiji are simply getting one side of the story, the reporting is not balanced. It's absolutely biased and quite apart from news reporting, there's been other programmes that we have noticed, particularly on Radio Fiji, which actually go a bit further to promote the regime and we don't believe this is fair. We call for a fair media and if the media is not allowed to report fairly, then it should not become a propaganda machine for the regime either.

HILL: What is it specifically you want the media to do?

ANTHONY: To report fairly and if they are not allowed to report the trade union perspective on issues, then they should either mention that or try their level best not to give misleading news and programs to the public.

HILL: So essentially are you saying that if they can't report both sides, they shouldn't report it at all?

ANTHONY: Well yes, that could be so, but also as I've said, we've noticed that there are some media outlets that actually not only report one side of the story, but actually go a bit further to promoting the propaganda agenda of the regime.

HILL: Is it better for people to have only one side of the story or no story at all?

ANTHONY: Well, we want the people to have the truth, and if the media is unable to give that truth, then they had better not mislead people.

HILL: But Fiji Broadcasting News director Stanley Simpson says the accusations from the unions are not entirely correct. He says journalists are trying to do the best job they can - but there is government censorship and that has to be taken into account.

SIMPSON: Well, all media organisations in the country - as you know Bruce, and as Felix knows, - are working under the Public Emergency Regulations. The PER is the one that really stops us from reporting some of these issues. It's a well known fact that people like Felix, some of the stories or some of the interviews that [have] been done with him, we're not allowed by the Ministry of Information to run them.

HILL: So there is some truth to what he says?

SIMPSON: We have tried to contact, to interview Felix a number of times, ... and also [FICTU President] Daniel Urai who has just come back from Australia and New Zealand. However, our messages to the union offices in Nadi and Lautoka have not received a response. But we've spoken to people like other unionists who signed the [joint] statements like Attar Singh and Tevita Koroi. I must say that the interviews that managed to get on air were really non-controversial ones, but some of the other ones could not run. I mean it's very clear when we interview them that ... anyone who is seen by government [as possibly] breaching the Public Emergency Regulations - we tell them there's no guarantee that their interview will go on air. I mean censors come in to the newsroom and check this story or if it does manage to go online, we may get a call for it to be removed. Sometimes the reasons are given, sometimes it's not given. [They just say that] orders have been given.

HILL: What about Felix Anthony's call for news media outlets, if they can't report both sides of the story to simply not report it at all?

SIMPSON: Look, we've got to keep reporting the best we can. We need to give both sides of the story, balanced fair reporting, that's the ethics of our profession. It's not an easy situation for us, but we've got to keep reporting and I hear him say there that there is propaganda, we're promoting the government line. But in fact we report information that we feel is important to the public. This is now the government that is running the country and information that is put out is important to the people, that's what we're able to do at the moment. We do challenge it at times and what's allowed to go through, it goes through. However, at the moment, as we've said, Public Emergency Regulations [are] in place.

[pima.nius] PROPOSAL WOULD TRIM TONGA GOVERNMENT MINISTRIES

11:31 AM |

PROPOSAL WOULD TRIM TONGA GOVERNMENT MINISTRIES
Current 19 cabinet ministries would be reduced to 13

http://pidp.eastwestcenter.org/pireport/2011/August/08-22-05.htm

NUKUALOFA, Tonga (Matangi Tonga, Aug. 21, 2011) – Under a proposed new structure of the Tongan government, aimed to be in place by 1 July 2012, it is proposed there will be only 13 line ministries, which will include a new Ministry of Internal Affairs.

[PIR editor's note: According to the Tongan Government's website, there are currently 19 ministries in the cabinet. ]

A Cabinet Working Group (CWG) in a statement on Thursday, 18 August, said the 13 government ministries will be:

Foreign Affairs and Trade
Tonga Defence Services
Prime Minister's Office
Finance and National Planning
Internal Affairs
Justice
Police, Prisons and Fire
Health
Education and Training
Commerce, Tourism, Industry and Public Enterprises
Agriculture, Forests and Fisheries
12.Transport, Works, Energy and Communications
Lands, Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change.

Government bodies without ministries will be:

The Palace Office
Legislative Assembly and Audit
Commissioner for Public Relations (Ombudsman)
Crown Law.

The Cabinet Working Group was formed during the Cabinet retreat to Vava'u in May and mandated to produce a new structure of government for Tonga. They were to address a major constraint on the government budget, where as much as 97percent of some line ministries budget goes on the salaries of the civil servants, leaving very little working capital for these ministries to carry out their duties.

On Thursday the CWG stated that they will present in an "interim implementation report" to the Cabinet Economic and Development Committee at the end of August, before their final report is presented on 30 November.

'Alifeleti Soakai, the Deputy Secretary to Cabinet, emphasized that these were proposals for Cabinet to consider.

CWG chairperson is Mishka Tu'ifua. Members include the Chief Secretary and Secretary to Cabinet Busby Kautoke; Solicitor General 'Aminiasi Kefu; Secretary for Finance and National Planning, Tiofilusi Tiueti; CEO of the public Service Commission Dr Palenitina Langa'oi; and an undisclosed number of senior government officials.

At the Cabinet retreat in Vava'u the CWG was presented with a timetable-

Interim Report to Cabinet by 30 September 2011
Final Report to Cabinet by 20 December 2011
Implementation of Cabinet Decision by 1 July 2012.
