We did it #teamFiji! We got the Oxford Dictionary to improve their definition of kava. All of you who helped with the likes and retweets, you're the real heroes. BEFORE and AFTER screenshots below.

I can't get over the fact that Dune is about an oppressed people fighting for their homeland, waging a jihad to bring down a hegemonic empire by threatening to cut off the flow of their most precious commodity after the empire had assassinated their religious leader's father.

@Sakefiji @fijivillage The title says he was set free. Not serving time.

Germany switching off its perfectly fine nuclear power plants, but keeping coal power plants instead to fight climate change in one picture. Enjoy your air quality.

@BeCachet @jesse_vermeulen Because they’re not a scammer

@jesse_vermeulen i always thought, why not buy from apple store, use for ~week while on travel, then return?

in case you were wondering how we travel with these

@FijianIndex @The_Tooth_Doc lol at “mark my words”. Dude, that won’t make you Nostradamus. Since he didn’t date his statement, it’s guaranteed to be false. Fuel prices always rise eventually. He should have said they won’t rise in the next [period].

Mark my words. This will turn out to be another one of his lies. In the next review there will be a massive increase in the price and if the situation in middle east persists, we will have shortages.

Areh nau. Singapore has the refinery but no fuel. It main source of fuel imports is from the middle east.

So, I was in the car today and saw someone with the license plate "XODUS3 5", so I thought it was like Exodus 3:5 and I looked it up. So after looking it up, I just nodded and said that's a well done biblical license plate.

@fijiansenku There’s no way servers were hacked and only 50k taken. Either the money was lost via a simpler method, or there was a hack and much much more than 50k was taken.

Coconut wireless says that B S P servers got hacked between 2025 and 2026. More than 50k was taken. They didn't know until a customer raised a query 👀👀👀 Take a wild guess where the hackers were from? Double check your savings!!! -concerned citizen

@fijivillage They spent a hell of a lot of money on it.

@fijivillage Looks like the abandoned airstrip is owned by Oaxia Farms. Just send a reporter there and ask them about it.

Mysterious airstrip in Nadi is not a priority for Govt - Gavoka #FijiNews #Airport fijivillage.com/news/mysteriou… via @fijivillage

@shanehussein @FijiRoads But they were working on a new temp bridge next to the collapsed section and I imagine that one must be in use by now

@shanehussein @FijiRoads But only one way, so about 20vehicles could go, then wait an hour from the vehicles from Natadola junction to come through before the next lot could pass. I arrived at Semo at 6pm, got home before 2am

@l_f_00 Thanks. This was poorly handled by FRA. I followed the route they provided but Naidiri rd was blocked by a flooded culvert 🤦‍♂️. Later on they opened up Ciri rd one-way so you had to wait 1hr+ for each group of cars to travel that road. I eventually got home at 2am.

@mark_up FYI fijivillage.com/news/traffic-d…

@fullman_sam Yeah it’ll be out of action for a few days I reckon. And the detour that goes from Semo to Natadola road is also out of action tonight.

@mark_up Oh the fissure looks worse than I thought

@MIsimeli Pp

Names removed. This is a typical comment posting. 🤷🏾‍♂️

@romeofiji AFAIK he only passed through Nadi once and I wasn’t able to sign. He should do another Fiji tour for signatures

How come Bis Moce’s party didnt get his 5000 voter registration? Bring it to the North !

@alexelbourne42 @lequwaqetavu Those are great suggestions but there really isn’t anything that involves every single student (apart from medical exceptions) involved in the exact same hardship (lol) and then performance. Even the square pegs make new friends and bond over shared cursing at authority

@mark_up @lequwaqetavu No doubt. I'd argue though that you could get that some result doing things that would fit better...putting on a stage show springs to mind. Or maybe teaching them programming to do a project...and the whole cadet thing in Fiji at least seems to be focused on discipline

“…not sure what benefits it brings” is precisely why you should not have given an opinion on this matter. Sa vosa madaga kevaka o a cadet mai. Kesega, o na sega ni kila na kena yaga.

@alexelbourne42 @lequwaqetavu Only a small minority of schools have a cadets program, so parents are free to send their children to other schools.

@alexelbourne42 @lequwaqetavu IMO it imparts all the benefits of a team sport, but even better. Every sjngle student working together within their platoon, and student leaders at multiple layers above them, working together to orchestrate a parade.
