I will not work under Chaudhry: Qarase
Monday September 03, 2007
Ousted Prime Minister Laisenia Qarase said he can work with the interim Finance Minister Mahendra Chaudhry in a political framework, but not under him.
Qarase said there is "no way" he is willing to work under Chaudhry because "we have had a lot of differences in our political philosophy".
"I could work with him in the sense we can discuss things," said Qarase, who has offered to assist the interim Government return Fiji to early election.
Chaudhry, the leader of the Fiji Labour Party, has been Qarase's political arch rival since 2001when the former banker led his Soqosoqo Duavata ni Lewenivanua to victory in the general elections.
Interim Prime Minister Commodore Bainimarama has said that Qarase has nothing to offer his Government.
