The Interim Prime Minister has stressed that the Interim Government is not undermining the interests of Fijian businesses.
Following the Soqosoqo Duavata Ni Lewenivanua (SDL) statement that it takes exception at the attempt by Interim Finance Minister Mahendra Chaudhry to undermine business attempts by the Fijians, Commodore Frank Bainimarama said the SDL just turns everything into a race issue.
Commodore Bainimarama also said it was not right for the SDL to say that there were high handed dealings in relation to the Kadavu House tenancy issue.
The SDL said Chaudhry is undermining the business attempts of the Fijians to enter slowly in the field of business where Indians and foreigners currently dominate.
It feels that equity in business will build partnership and some small support for Fijian businesses should be seen in the context of the magnitude of the Fijian landowners to give their land and resources to support tourism, agriculture, housing, mining, energy, water, roads and all other major projects for the benefit of all the people of Fiji.
