“ GOOD GOVERNANCE LEADERSHIP: A GUISE FOR PM’s “GANGSTER”-SHIP. We could call it the tactics of dictatorship, communism, undemocratic, tyranny and even gangster-style leadership. Akilsi Pohiva gave the people “AN OFFER THEY COULD NOT REFUSE.”
He used “good governance” in speeches but knows nothing what it means, The people could not refuse such an offer. Like Eve in the Garden of Eden who could not refuse the offer from the snake to eat the forbidden fruit: “Your eyes will be open...and you’ll be like God Himself”. Well Eve did not become like God, but she became mortal subjected to hardships and death. Now Akilisi Pohiva sits in the PM OFFICE unable to deliver on “good governance.” The people are now awakened to his deception.
Like a mobster boss who knows nothing else but violence and brute force must rely on “henchmen” (strong-arm men) to intimidate, threaten, scare, and coerce people to accept totalitarian rule by deception. Thus we have Piveni Piukala and his computer business partner PM’s son Siaosi Pohiva to terrorize the Dept of Ed with deceptive computer promises, and unelected Minister Tui Uata who removed experienced journalists from Tonga Broadcasting Commission - a form of suppressing free speech.
Now there’s no rule of law; only mobster-style rule. ”
