Fiji's politicians are questioning how serious the country's military backed interim Government is about listening to anyone else's opinions about the best path back to democracy. It is still unclear if all the country's major political parties will be invited to attend a political forum in Suva on Friday, which aims to set the agenda for a United Nations Commonwealth facilitated forum later this year.
