Shameem sisters do a dash as Singh is cleared

LAST SISTER EXITS: Nazhat Shameem heading to Geneva as Fiji's representative.
So both of the Shameem sisters have now opted out of Fiji but no matter how far they go, they will always be tainted.

Nazhat Shameem is to take up a post with the United Nations in Geneva, two years after sister, Shaista, sought sanctuary in New Zealand.

Readers will recall both of the Shameem sisters have been implicated in Frank Bainimarama's 2006 coup and were part of the Aiyaz Sayed Khaiyum inner circle.

Their departures, albeit both at different times, but before the September general elections suggests the playing field that has been Fiji no longer suits them.

Both sisters had it good here, although Shaista, got more of a public drubbing after switching sides, presenting herself as a supporter of justice, when she wanted out.

Her New Zealand LinkedIn profile currently declares she is 'Committed to Justice' and 'Noblese Oblige' - a French phrase meaning 'with wealth, power and prestige comes responsibility.'
SIS RAIDS DEBATE: John Key and Winston Peters
Her former High Court judge sister has been more coy about her dealings but was exposed by C4.5 in our March 25, 2012 story as calling herself 'Madam' and openly influencing key regime entities via her law firm.(http://www.coupfourandahalf.com/2012/03/client-list-shows-nazhat-shameem.html)

Because of her connections, Shaista Shameem was readily embraced by New Zealand, which supposedly still had sanctions Fiji at the time, and allowed to study at Waikato University. She went on to work as a lawyer in Auckland, where she remains.

Another Fijian residing in Auckland has clearly not been of 'wealth, power and prestige' but has managed to win his argument there is a case against the John Key government and the Security Intelligence Service after a raid on his Auckland shop, in 2012, over a claim he and others were involved in a plot to kill Bainimarama.

It emerged officially last year in Parliament that Mosese Tikoitoga had texted Rajesh Singh to boast of the SIS operation as it was happening, confirming there had been co-operation between the secret service and the Fiji military, despite denials from the New Zealand government. 

Singh says he has been sent a 12-page report by the Inspector General clearing him of any wrongdoing and paving the way for him to take Key and the SIS to court for defamation and compensation.

Wellington has been even more promiscuous with this regime than has Canberra. No consistency whatsoever. All over the map. Now they're both going along with the regime's election charade. Pathetic! Their contempt for Fiji's voters should be reciprocated by New Zealand's voters when they next go to the polls.

"Our color is PINK.

"We think that supporting any woman is the most acceptable way to go.

"May God bless all women and show them the way forward for our country."

By this reasoning, then, God bless the Shameem sisters., and supporting them is the most acceptable way to go.

Seems some people are reading the writing on the wall. Bai/ Kai's days are numbered and come September they will be out of the game. The good Madam of the whore house, Nazhat Shameem is making a beeline while the going is good. This is no different than Tarakinikini case.

A rather contradictory article here in that clearing someone of wrongdoing does not automatically mean that Singh HAS won a case against the NZ government.

Anon@4.32pm Article says report clears of him wrongdoing and paves way for him to sue - don't think it says he has won the case. cos that's my understanding. maybe re-read?

People say that the first sign of a sinking ship is when one sees the rats start swimming away from its hull.

Most of the time man depicts the behaviour of animals.

Aren't we seeing a line of swimmers heading away? The long arm of the law will finally catch up with anyone.
The 2013 illegal constitution is attempting to protect the coup conspirators, if that fails, at least these coup makers are away with their money guarded by the illegal fake Geneva ambassador to be.
PS Foreign Affairs needs and the nationalist minister [1987 Taukei Movement recruit] should tell the people why we need an ambassador in Geneva.
Anyway, life won't be enjoyable there, one it's cold and two, because most of which will be spent on running and looking behind.

Shaista is a particularly nasty piece of work. Putting her in charge of human rights was a bit like putting Himmler in charge of relocations.

The Shameem sisters were smart to get out whilst they still could. No telling when the Hibiscus Revolution will arrive, but once it's here, it will be too late for all who remain.

Macully has always been seen rubbing shoulders with Kububola the illegal minister for foreign affairs who has always been involved in every coup in Fiji.
Shame on N.Z government for allowing thugs to enter Fiji.
One day these thugs will enter N.Z. and take John Key and Macully to task.

Nazhat, with her husband, Aslam Khan, the highly corrupt Vodafone Fiji CEO, will be running to Geneva with no blood on her hands, but lots of legal money in the bank accumulated from illegal contracts and deals she had with Fiji's military junta. This includes so called legal advice for the coup, writing up illegal decrees, drafting the illegal constitution and drafting judgements on cases, etc. There is much more this coup plotter has done to rob Fiji.

The appointment is made even worse knowing that she will be travelling at the Fiji taxpayers expense.

"I do not earn $1.7 million and you will find out what my salary is after the registration of the proposed Fiji First."

Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama revealed this at the Rotuma Day Celebrations today adding that a political party that distributed a flyer highlighting this did so without fact or proof or evidence.

He said people will also know his salary once he declares his assets and liabilities to the Fijian Elections Office.

He said at the moment he cannot campaign until his proposed party is registered.

IF FFP loses this election will they be happy sitting in opposition and especially answering questions spanning 8 years running Fiji? But by now most of the evidence will have been destroyed. Why did they disband the Public Accounts Committee? While they haven’t presented the Audited Accounts for the last 7 years surely the Auditor General’s office is conducting the auditing in some form or the other. Given the news leakages from all corners of Fiji I am amazed nothing has been leaked from Auditors office so far! Is the Auditor General’s office operating or has been disbanded? I read in the blogs some time ago about FB’s credit card spending spree while overseas. Was there any truth in this or just another bull in blogs?

If the claim is true: The Geneva office will be opening a bank account for dictators from Fiji, what would be the proof? ummm, lets think about that, ok: i) dodgy companies set up between 2006 and 2014; ii) income from sharing halve of Ministerial portfolio available during the 2006-2014 pre-election period; iii) possibly, missing project funds from donors. There are many question that builds from this, and one in particular is, why. The simple answer is greed, but again its a calculated approach to keep the money coming out the banks for generations. Aha, this is where it gets interesting, whose future, well its only for the selected few, like, ummm, VB, ASK, and the illegal appointed representative to Geneva. What does this mean altogether, one thing and one thing only. Its that all future leaders will have access to this account or facility and can make deposit from investors for an approval of any number of project. Who wins, only the elected few. What are way to legalise theft and corruption, the very thing that the coup was suppose to root out from Fiji politics. Can't fight that sweetness, ... vous savez?

It's also funny seeing Just Situational Logic's prediction about the regime already coming true just one day later..

Tony Abbott and John Key should be asked whether as prime ministers they consider themselves public officials. When they answer in the affirmative, then ask them whether it is not manifestly deceitful for the regime in Suva to claim that someone in the position of Prime Minister isn't a public officer.

Bainimarama should keep Shameem from leaving, because he will need her to defend him in his treason case.

On the other hand, why are the Fiji government taxpayers paying for all the costs of sending, keeping, and protecting an illegal ambassador, whose going to guard the Fiji coup conspirators funds in the Swiss bank.

Why a Swiss illegal ambassador?
How many countries have UN ambassadors in Geneva?
At this particular time, what is the big thing happening in Geneva? No, not a thing, just financial transactions known only to a few eyes.
This is the way this arrogant illegal regime calls ' we are not accountable to the people, because the people did not put us in power' [2006].
The same regime is running after our votes now and signatures of support, while some of its inner circle members are now running for their lives.

The only ones that have isolated themselves from the economic powers are the indigenous of Fiji.

The majority are fed up with your continual whining and selfish attitude in that all you want to do from society is take take take.

You want everything handed to you on a plate, you want roads, schools, hospitals, jetties, sewing machines and grants for building your churches but expect others to provide the money.

Like selfish kids with sweets you do not want to share, you do not have the money for your own sweets but you still want them.

If you had learnt, and you sure have had plenty of time to learn to, nothing in life is free.

YOU have put yourself where YOU are and it's YOUR people who have been responsible and also YOUR people who are trying to dig YOU out of the shit.

Stop blaming others, look in the mirror.

The only Circus Being Created is by The Minister of Elections and the Party General Secretary. opps I forgot it one and same. hahahaha

Ballot paper for general elections will not change - Govt
Publish date/time: 14/05/2014 [13:07]

The government has made it clear that the ballot paper for the 2014 general elections will not be changed.

Attorney General and Minister for Elections, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum has confirmed this to Fijivillage as he said this is one of the most uncomplicated ballot papers Fiji will ever use.

Speaking to us in a recent interview, Sayed-Khaiyum said the four political parties who want the candidates’ names, photos and party symbols on the ballot paper, are just creating a circus and not focusing on issues.

Sayed-Khaiyum said the Open List System will ensure that people know who they want to vote for.

The National Federation Party had earlier stated that they are planning to take the matter to court as they want the ballot paper changed.

NFP will make further comment this afternoon.

Under the new voting system, the current ballot paper will only have a list of candidate numbers.

There will be no party symbols or candidate's names on the current ballot paper.

This system also has only one constituency and that is Fiji.

People can vote for any person who is an official candidate.

As already highlighted, it is not race based and does not restrict people from voting only for candidates in certain areas.

The candidate names and numbers will be drawn by the Elections Office by the 25th of August.

Under the Electoral Decree, it is said that the numbering must start from 135.

The decree said that all the numbers will be put in a barrel and the Elections Office will draw candidate names with their numbers.

The candidate's names, their photos and numbers will be displayed at all polling stations when people go to cast their votes.

It has been confirmed in the Electoral Decree that people can either tick, cross or circle only one candidate's number on the current ballot paper.

Anon 2.27. I have been saying this all along. Why does their have to be compulsory partnership with the land owner. It is wrong in simple economic terms because you have not invested a single cent and are only wanting partnership based on being born in a native Fijian body. Secondly extracting resources is not like trying to find a cure for AIDS. As per many contributions to this blog native Fijians are smart, wise, unselfish and superior to all and every one else in Fiji. Why don't you then exploit your own resources and become rich like us Indians who according to some of you are all rich and have gold streaming out of our asses. Can someone please tell me how landless migrants who have some to Fiji with almost nothing can become wealthy in 2 to 3 generations and people who have all the resources still wait for someone to walk in with a chq and use their land so that they can sit and eat the scraps that are paid and do nothing.

Fiji TV sacking after regime call - PFF

Updated at 7:11 pm today

Tweet on Twitter Share on Facebook

The media group Pacific Freedom Forum says a senior reporter at Fiji TV was sacked following a phone call from the attorney-general, Aiyaz Sayed Khaiyum.

A journalist and publisher, Ricardo Morris, who is a former coordinator of PFF, says the veteran reporter Anish Chand had said at a meeting that the television company should source wider political views than ones that simply favour the government.
no caption


Mr Chand declined to comment on the matter, but Mr Morris says one of Mr Chand's own colleagues undoubtedly called the authorities and shortly afterwards his contract was terminated on May the 3rd - World Press Freedom Day.

"And it is understood that somebody at that meeting or who heard about that meeting then passed the message on and then a phone call was made from the attorney general to the management of Fiji TV and the rest, as they say, is history."

Ricardo Morris says he has just resigned his own position at PFF after feeling ongoing pressure from authorities.

This illegal regime has been making decrees and the illegal 2013 constitution to favour the coup makers more;

1. Giving immunity to the coup makers, yet disallowing any claim for compensation by any of the victims of the 2006 coup.
2. They retire civil servants at 55 but not others like the Army Commander and his cronies.
3. Ministers positions are not public officers, but trade union positions are.Yet ministers are paid by public funds and unionists are paid by members.
4. No party can campaign before registration, but the FF party has been campaigning well before registration, and even when reported to the police for breaching the decree, no action taken to question the party leader or its president.
5. The regime can take people to court, but the people cannot do the same to the regime.
6. The courts only hears cases against citizens but not against the regime.
7. This regime can go back 20 years to charge people for abuse of office, but it cannot account to the nation details of the Auditors Report for the last 7 years.
8. All civil servants are paid from the Treasury, the illegal ministers are paid through a private accounting firm.
9. All civil servants receive one pay pack each, while the illegal ministers who do not see themselves as holding public officers, receive at least two, even up to 10 pay packs.
10. Elected PMs cannot stand for election, illegal PM qualifies to stand for election.

Some are more equal than others.

Anonymous 11:55 PM, what blog content, mainstream media content or government press statement isn't occasionally full of misinformation, especially in a media environment controlled by a tyrannical regime?

In all instances, the editors have an obligation to try to correct the record. But blog editors can and should give freer rein to their contributors, as their blogsite does not necessarily endorse the views expressed by their readership, any more than a newspaper endorses the views expressed in its Letters to the Editor.

In fact, the policies of both should be virtually identical. Editors should allow as many views to be published as possible but firmly exercise editorial discretion with respect to those that contain foul, racist or otherwise offensive language. They should also feel free to step in occasionally to correct the record.

The best defence against libel is the truth. If what is printed is true, it isn't libel. If what is printed is false, it is best countered by the truth.

True hate speech should be removed. But what constitutes "hate speech" should not be over broadly defined. Speech such as that uttered by Timoci Vesikula and criticised by Ashwin Raj does not constitute hate speech.

Sedition, in law, is often defined as "overt conduct, such as speech and organisation, deemed by the legal authority to tend toward insurrection against the established order". In view of the fact that the legal authority in Fiji has been disestablished, and we are now being governed by an illegal authority, I don't see how true sedition can be legally possible under these circumstances.

Sedition is what Bainimarama and his fellow coup plotters committed in recruiting for and plotting the coup. The coup itself was an act of treason. The regime's continued rule without legal authority is ongoing treason. In law and democratic theory, therefore, speech and organisation against the illegal authority established by this treasonous regime are far from acts of sedition -- they are our patriotic duty.

I was attending the rally for United Front for democratic Fiji where Mahendra Pal Chaudhry said that the current regime is illegal and that we should unite to go against them.

I stood up and asked Chaudhry when he knew it was illegal, then why did he serve as a finance minister for the current government from 2006-2008? The poor man could not answer my question.
Tupeni Baba said that we must unite and fight against this government. I asked him a man like him who has been in three political parties because of differences, how can he tell us to unite when he himself is not united. He said that is politics. I asked him that he betrayed his wife and married another women, is this breaking of unity also politics? He was angry.

We have not forgotten that Chaudary, Felix and Dan Urai are part of the regime.
They had compromised their principles for a taste at the illegal leadership.
Chaudary ultimately wants leadership, he opted to join Voreqe's cabinet in 2007, than to join Qarase's multi-party government of 2006, for the likelihood of becoming the PM.
We will remeber them!

Dainiteri said Bau chief Ratu Epenisa Cakobau accepted the SODELPA team as they were seeking the approval of the chiefs to have campaign meetings in the villages in the province of Tailevu.

He said Ratu Epenisa Cakobau told the delegation that the traditional links between Bau, the vanua of Kubuna and the Marama Roko Tui Dreketi and the vanua of Burebasaga will always remain.

But Dainiteri said the people of Tailevu have the freedom to choose whoever they want to vote for on Election Day.

About 70 people were present at the Ulunivuaka meeting house last night including Roko Tui Bau Ratu Joni Madraiwiwi, Ratu Epenisa Cakobau, Ratu Jope Seniloli and SODELPA President Ratu Silivenusi Waqausa who is also from Bau.

SODELPA media manager Sainiana Radrodro said this is a courtesy visit to seek the traditional approval to begin the political campaigns in the province.

The SODELPA team included Ro Teimumu Kepa, the President of the party Silivenusi Waqausa, General Secretary Pio Tabaiwalu and Tailevu representative Ratu Isoa Tikoca.

Excellent contribution, as usual, High Tea.

Your part mentioning Letters to the Editor part got me thinking. Didn't Khaiyum prosecutethe Fiji Times for contempt, just because it published, without endorsement, what someone had written to the editor about the lack of independence in Fiji's judiciary? That's ridiculous, appalling and clearly designed to have a chilling effect on free speech.

It also reminds me of Ashwin Raj's comment that he wanted to examine the policies of the various newspapers with respect to how they determine which letters to the editor to publish. In a free society, that might seem a worthwhile study, to ensure that newspapers publish worthy letters, even if they do not conform to the editor's personal views. But in Fiji, who doubts but that the real reason for Ashwin Raj's review is to make sure that no letters get published that challenge the legitimacy of the illegal regime?

THE Fiji Independent Commission against Corruption has laid charges against Sainiana Waqainabete Radrodro.

Mrs Radrodro appeared before Magistrate Yohan Liyanage in the Suva Magistrates Court yesterday but the charges were not read out. Representing Mrs Radrodro was lawyer Seruwaia Nayacalevu, who applied for bail on the grounds that her client was not a flight risk and was employed by the United Nations Women.

The FICAC prosecutor told the court the accused had been served charges and also the first phase of disclosures.

Ms Nayacalevu confirmed receiving both documents and said they were not in a position to take a plea.

Ms Nayacalevu asked the court for more time so that her client could go through the disclosures before taking a plea.

Plea has been deferred and the case has been adjourned to January 10 for mention.

What Mrs Radrodro is charged with is still unknown as it was not disclosed in court.

Mrs Radrodro has been granted bail on the conditions that she:

* Provides $3000 as surety;

* She does not enter any premises of the Ministry of Works, Transport and Public Utilities;

* To surrender all travel documents; and

* Report to the Nabua Police Station every Friday from anytime between 6am to 6pm.

The court has also issued an order for stop departure which will be delivered to the Immigration Department.

Mrs Radrodro's father-in-law appeared as her surety before Mr Liyanage.

The court heard that her passport was still being held by the New Zealand High Commission where she had lodged for a transit visa to Samoa via New Zealand.

Mrs Radrodro's lawyer submitted two grounds on how the court could obtain her client's passport, saying that the court could issue a directive to the New Zealand High Commission to handover her client's passport or to wait until her client receives her passport and that she would hand it over to the court.

The court ordered that Mrs Radrodro produce her passport in court within a week and not to re-offend while on bail.

We read under 'Labour protests' (Fiji Times 15/5) that the Fiji Labour Party has registered a protest to the President calling on the Elections Minister and A-G Aiyaz Sayed Khaiyum to step down from his post immediately.
The same call has been made by others in the democratic opposition in Fiji. They say Mr Khaiyum's position as Elections Minister has become untenable because he has been appointed the secretary-general of the coup leader Frank Bainimarama's political party.
Mr Kkaiyum claims "the comments made by these people are not worth responding to" (FT 15/5).
Mr Khaiyum's response is typical of the way of the unelected, self-appointed rulers in a dictatorship : No need for any accountability to the people.
By contrast we see the former Australian PM Kevin Rudd required to appear before a royal commission to explain his position with regard to a bungled government program. Even cabinet confidentiality has been set aside to allow him to give a full and frank account of what happened.
This is democratic accountability at work. The people have a right to know what the government and government ministers do in their name.
We can't of course expect the same standard of democratic accountability from Mr Sayed Khaiyum.
He is not bound by the rules of democratic good governance.
He is part of the Fijian dictatorship.

FIJIAN Attorney-General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum has refused to stand aside as Elections Minister despite coming under fire for retaining the portfolio while also becoming general secretary of the Fiji First party.

Fiji First is led by the leader of the 2006 coup, Frank Bainima­rama, who will seek to remain in power at the September 17 election.

USP had no money to pay for any new appointments. Even staff resources are being ignored. Regional visits are being cut. The VC goes around telling false stories about funds, money given as aid but in reality there is Mass-mismanagement. He has appointed so many inefficient admin staff surrounding him and none of them know what to do. Examples are Jai Karan, Boila, new deputy Vice President who can't even talk, deans who are terrible academics. New appointments are being shelved, promotions stopped. An academic institute is least doing what it was set up to do- serve the region and provide quality education. He thinks large number of students grow growth- 40% of these students should not be at USP since they do not meet minimum entry requirement but all is good since the dictator will change policies as it suits him. Wonder why he is pledged to destroying the university.

Just Situational Logic said...

The credibility of this election is on the line? You've got to be kidding me! What credibility? This election has no credibility. It has never had any credibility. Dakuwaqa and numerous other observers pointed this out years sgo.

That's fundamentally because this regime has no credibility. It had lost all credibility by January 2009. Any expression of credibility in this regime can be chalked up to deception -- either the self-deception of the gullible or the realpolitik pretense of politicians.

In the case of our friends in Canberra and Wellington, it is most assuredly the latter. In the absence of an organised and effective opposition movement in Fiji, they've now packed in their previous policies of principled -- and, at times, petty -- confrontasi, a policy that saw them squaring off not only against the illegal regime in Suva but against their own allies in Washington and other capitals. They've resigned themselves instead to tacitly and cynically conspiring with the thugs in Suva in sponsoring an election they fully know to be a charade.

The problem for all three conspirators is that the rest of the world is finally beginning to realise that the elections are a charade as well.

The press and the loyal opposition in Australia and New Zealand will increasingly reveal the election for the farce it is. Washington's policy of smart sanctions will likely remain unchanged because it is rooted in law, and no American ambassador of principle -- and Frankie Reed is such a one -- will be able to certify to the U.S. Secretary of State as to the democratic nature of so farcical an election. Other capitals will bend toward Suva only as much as they need to -- in Tarawa's case fully; in Brussels' perhaps not at all. The case Canberra and Wellington have made for leading the PIF's collective policy against Suva is being morally undermined through their own actions, and with it their stature throughout the Pacific.

In the end it's likely that Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum will need to appoint a puppet as Minister for Elections, loathe though he might be to give up the extra salary. This isn't because he needs to preserve the regime's credibility. It has none. This is rather to preserve the credibility of his de facto co-conspirators in Canberra and Wellington. That credibility is rapidly diminishing, and with it all hope for an election that won't be universally scoffed for the sham it is.

Many if not most Taliban comments I've read deserve to be deleted. It's one thing to criticise Muslims for supporting the regime. It's quite another to criticise Muslims for being Muslim.

And regime troll @ Anonymous 11:37 PM, your "logic" fails on multiple levels. If, as you contend, C4.5 intended to "incite racial hatred" (Muslims are not a race, oh by the way) and to get us to name call each other, then why is its editor deleting offensive comments? Also, why would a divided Fiji be the goal of Fiji's democratic opposition? Our goal is, in fact, a Fiji united in defence of the rule of law.

The principal beneficiaries of a divided Fiji are the illegal regime leaders. And they show that they understand this very well through the tactics they've adopted -- including the use of regime trolls to sow division on opposition blogsites like C4.5.

Perhaps Canberra and Wellington have embraced a different meaning of "credibility" similar to that which Khaiyum and Bainimarama have adopted.

This illegal regime indeed has no credibility (the meaning of which, which is found in a proper dictionary), at all.

Arif is the best choice. He should really be groomed to be next Governor because he is untainted and has been more of a professional central banker compared to the spineless Barry and Fili Waqabaca. Inia has served his time and needs to make way for new upcoming talent. Its time to reward steady and loyal talent from within RBF like Arif and not self-serving in-and-out ex-RBFers like Fili.

Anon @ 6:51 AM, how does someone "allow" someone to break US immigration law. How does that work? I know that US Congressional Democrats as well as Republicans wink at the enforcement of US immigration laws, but how is it that Ro Teimumu can violate them? Answer: she can't, and she doesn't.

I don't know the visa status of her daughter, and I doubt you do, either. But I'm sure the daughter is older than age 18, which makes her an independent adult under US law. Ro Teimumu isn't responsible for her conduct; neither can she compel her actions,

You want Ro Teimumu to return to the US? For what -- is she facing any charges? No, she is not, which only proves my point. She was in the US just last year -- why should she now have to break off her political campaign in order to visit the United States?

Maybe it's because nibblets like you are afraid she will turn you into succotash in the elections.

She came with her daughter in 2009 on a visitors visa to collect money for Methodist conference from Rewan people living here.

Thats the reason why their visa was issued by the embassy. She as a responsible person should see to it that they return when what they came for was done with, she didnt and allowed her to overstay, work illegaly,getting paid under the table and not paying federal and state taxes( another offence) till today. She is the daughter of of maybe the next PM and and this does not look good on her. As an aspiring PM she must be above board as these type of things will be ammunition for her opponents.

I ask you one question, Would you come here with your daughter and allow her to overstay when you know that its against the Law.

My drift here is that she did not come alone, she came with her mother and they should have returned together.If she had came by herself then thats no problem.

I don't know the circumstances by which Ro Teimumu's daughter is living in the United States, but neither do you.

If you have an issue with it, contact the USCIS or write your congressman.

She's a grown woman. If you really are an American, then you know that parents are no longer liable for the actions of their children once they reach age 18.

I think Ro Teimumu is a great lady, and I back her candidacy wholeheartedly.

Her opponent is a thug holding our entire nation to ransom. When you write your congressman, remind him of your nation's commitment to democratic governance and civilian authority, and then ask him to look into the activities of one Qorvis corporation.
