Fiji's censors have struck again - this time a Methodist Minister has fallen foul of the military regime. A brief mention of the economic slowdown led to his column titled "Prayer is Action" being pulled from publication. Reverend James Bhagwan has now stopped writing his column in the Fiji Times in response to the ban.
