Prime Minister Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama said there can be another coup in Fiji if the next election is rushed through as proposed by some countries.
Commodore Bainimarama has told The Australian that if the election is rushed under the current race based electoral system, then Fiji will go back to extremist and ethno-nationalist policies that would divide the nation.
Meanwhile Commodore Bainimarama left for China this morning to attend the Shanghai World Expo and have various meetings on investment opportunities in Fiji.
