I executed a coup ... and it would be loath of me to leave the process half-done in terms of the processes of law.

This whole crusade is about bringing back the supremacy, or the interests, of indigenous Fijians in ... Fiji.

When you take up an action of this kind, you do it with conviction.

They have always doubted the degree of support I have around Fiji ... what will take place over the next few days is that the support will be made very very loud and clear to the army, and I am of the very firm belief that they will come around.

There will never ever be a government led by an Indian, ever in Fiji.

This is not the end. This is the beginning. There is much work to be done in this country.
