RAFiji's interim prime minister announced on Radio Fiji this evening that "there will be no elections next year". Commodore Bainimarama said that the initial plan by Cabinet was to have elections in 2010, but that date is also now in doubt. Interim attorney-general Aiyaz Sayed-Kaihyum was non-commital as to when he thinks the interim government will be in a position to hold elections.
