Australian official in Fiji receives third death threat
Updated
Australia has agreed to let Fiji's interim government, fill two key diplomatic positions, in response to what it says is a move towards democracy. Foreign Minister Stephen Smith says Australia has accepted Fiji to appoint an acting High Commissioner to serve in Canberra, and a Consul General in Sydney. But Mr Smith says Australia has no intention to lift contentious travel bans on Fiji's government and military figures, and has expressed doubt over the island nation's commitment to holding elections next year. Mr Smith's comments came as it emerged Australia's High Commissioner in Fiji had received a third death threat in two months.
