Voreqe's Idol

When Voreqe took over the people's elected government in December 2006, he stated in his early press releases that he likened his principles to that of General Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan.

This particular General overthrew the elected Government in 1999 and then later appointed himself President of Pakistan in 2001.

Voreqe overthrew the people's elected Government, and then later appointed himself "interim" President of Fiji before relinquishing executive authority to the President so he could take up the post of Interim Prime Minister.

Prior to September 11, 2001 General Musharraf was an ardent vocal supporter of the Taliban regime.

In 2005, Voreqe's idol made it to the Top 10...Worst Dictators in the World!

In 2006, Voreqe's role model was rated 17 "not because [his] conduct has improved but because other dictators have gotten worse."


I rest my case.
