The eyes tell the story.
This my good people is what a worried man looks like.
This is the look of man in fear for his very life and the life of his family.
Bai, you should have known better than to frak with the Great Council of Chiefs. O sa coqa tiko na matani moto qori!
Bai's only hope was to get the $350 million from EU. His government has no more money.
Bai had hoped his No. 1 team would have told the EU like it is, but when they got there, his No. 1 team got their collective asses handed back to them on a platter... yes it was a silver one!
EU's non-negotiable conditions for the release of funds include:-
- elections by March 2009
- suitable road map by June 30 2007
- appointing of VP in accordance with the Constitution
- upholding of every facet of the Constitution, including human rights, freedom of expression and independence and integrity of the judiciary
- go back to the camp and stay there
- bring back the GCC and respect their independence
- lift the Public Emergency Regulations, and
- no more of this crap about invoking the doctrine of necessity
In other words, if Bai wants his money he has to swallow his pride and reverse everything he's done over the past few months.
He's already started by diplomatically apologising to the US for wrongly directing the removal of the barricades at Loftus Street.
But that's not enough, Bai.
I imagine there will be more grovelling in the coming weeks. Just try to read between the lines and you will see a very remorseful Bai... quick with the mouth but a little slow in the head!
Stay tuned.
