@jasperkid80 I'm Fijian Indian myself the situation in Fiji's past between us fijian indians, native fijians (both melanesians and polynesians) and the british colonial people is a very complex thing. I see my fellow naitves as part of me my brothers and sisters it was politics that stuffed people up and the corrupted elites. Be thankful we have Frank Bainimarama no man has ever fought for the equals rights for the people.

My grandparents worked on sugar fields they struggled.The poor Indian farmers work hard &get nothing in return.They dont even own the land they work on.Fijians own & lease land. Pay big bucks or leave No one talks about this.Sucks.Left 24 years ago never to return,we are treated like 2nd class citizens and the British should take full responsibilty for this.Indians can never own land in Fiji.we are better off out of the so called "paradise island".

Sugar is not as profitable in Fiji as it used to be. There is a larger shift towards more service type industry like tourism, even though there is still a lot of cane being cultivated there. I hope Fiji continues to produce. And yes the Fijians and Indians do subsist peacefully regardless of the garbage people tend to paddle around on the net.

i dont care, i still see indians in fiji as my bro and sis, i went to school with them, and i still keep in touch with them

they get $8 per tonne but remember the truck can take 7 - 10 tonne. the land owners are fijian as they lease out the land to the indians who were brought from india to fiji as slaves to work onthe cane fields, but as time have gone the cost of the increases and the return on the sugar cane decreases. from a recent trip to fiji have seen new machinery that has been exported from australia to cut the sugar cane so yeah it should get a bit better.

Please don't spread ignorance. The Fijian man in the video is the landowner yet he is there helping harvest because that's how people work in these places... cooperating with each other. The only thing that Indians 'took control' of in Fiji is HARD WORK.

Oh i remember that my grandfather has a store in Samoa and i look at the bag of sugar and it says that is made from fiji...this fijian dude is right the Indian is almost took control of there land..
