Support free speech for a prosperous Fiji

Target: Pacific Islands leaders
Region: Fiji
Petition Background (Preamble):
Information is power. Gagging, censorship and detention of the Fiji news media by the interim regime in Fiji robs all citizens of feedback surrounding debate on national futures; and leaves the leadership itself uninformed about how to best achieve its goals of ending racist laws and corruption.
Petition:
We, undersigned, support free speech for a prosperous and free Fiji.
We come from all walks of life and all regions of the world to call on Pacific leaders at all levels to stand up for the front-line role of news media when warning of threats to human rights, suggesting options, and negotiating outcomes with peoples of Fiji.
