I was born and raised in Fiji. My grandparents on my mothers side were kids of indentured slaves. My grandma used to tell me stories from this times. Life was hard to say the least. I love Fiji with all my heart but have to say that I always felt like a second class citizen there, didn’t really feel accepted. Seeing this video, Makes me so happy. Thank you

@@DeepVerma728 you're not going to change history by posting the same type of comments on every single Indo FIjian video.

Just look at South America for example, no Aztec, Mayan, no Native Americans, no Persian culture exists. Islam, and British tried their best but could not destroy the verdic or the Sanatan Dharam culture. Love to all my Fijians.

To me you sound like a uneducated,disgruntled, racist and hateful human being. The problems in Fiji today is due to the mentality of people like you. A Chinese born in Fiji is Fijian, an Indian born in Fiji is a Fijian, a Kiwi born in Fiji is a Fijian. Remember we all came from somewhere including yourself. You just didn’t appear during the last volcanic eruption. My father was born in Fiji but migrated overseas in 1979 and he is still patriotic to his country of birth. He served in the Police force and still proudly displays in his home office photo of then PM Ratu Sir K Mara , photos of his police colleagues who represented Fiji in Soccer, Dewan Chand , Saimone Ratu , ulyasi Ramaca , and Fiji Rugby reps like Basialo and Rupeni to name a few . He Still displays framed poster of the 7s Rio gold medal team . My father was disappointed when my grandparents were displaced from their livelihood and home and he managed to get them overseas . Their souls are resting peacefully now. My father still remains patriotic despite all this because of his love for his homeland. I am sure there are a lot of stories like this untold so I am hoping people who read this understand a bit better and as for myself, in my 40 years I have visited Fiji once . And as for you Vosa Levu get yourself a decent education, learn your history and if you want to be a patriot do something worthwhile for your country you may help people get out of poverty. At least there are some sensible ones doing the right thing.

The biggest problem in Fiji for Indians is the land issues. I remember very well how difficult it was for us to renew the lease. Like I said before, it's the corrupt system that never got corrected at the time of independence due to some greedy leaders of that time and now the Indo Fijians are displaced from time to time. The only solution to the land issue is that it needs to be converted into State property. Now Fiji is enjoying the coup culture and the poor suffers.
