Letters To The Editor: No Nuke In The Pacific

If Opposition FijiFirst Member of Parlia­ment Faiyaz Koya’s criticism of Prime Min­ister Sitiveni Rabuka’s support for nuclear wastewater dumping in the Pacific Ocean by Japan is correct (and I have no reason to doubt it is), then that support on PM Rabu­ka’s part is perverse given that the Parlia­ment had objected to the dumping plan.

It is good to see the democratic space pro­vided by the media in Fiji for ordinary citi­zens, civil society, Opposition politicians and others to openly criticise PM Rabuka’s stance on Japan’s nuclear waste dumping in the Pacific Ocean.

The Pacific Ocean is indeed not a dumping ground for any waste matter let alone nu­clear waste.

It is a precious source of sustenance for Pa­cific Island people.

We must protect its integrity uncompro­misingly
