We have to allow for media freedom and trust the media to do the right thing – Kamikamica

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Communications Manoa Kamikamica says they have to allow for media freedom and trust the media to do the right thing.

While speaking after the Media Act was repealed, Kamikamica says democracy has returned to Fiji.

Kamikamica says the media in Fiji have already begun to form the Media Council.

The Deputy PM says one of the beauties of democracy is that if you trust people, they will do the right thing.

When questioned on the opposition opposing the bill to repeal the Act and his message to the people, Kamikamica says the opposition has not really understood the fundamental part of a democracy.
