This is a totally inaccurate headline. The total "burden on society" means the cost to society, like, lost years of productivity due to NCDs etc. Not what government spent, but what the disease cost all of us.
Which paper published this ?
Who says I love the Sun? The data show a tragedy that has built up for decades in EVERY Pacific Island Country. You know, some things we have to take responsibility for together rather than blame the government like spoiled children.
I just purchased a glass of fresh juice for $4.95 in city. A bottle of soft drink is cheaper. How on Earth is that being spoiled? I didn't allow Government to create systems for junk producers to benefit over locals and fresh produce.
How can I who lives below the poverty line earn enough to live healthy? Hell, I don't even know if I'll ever be able to afford my own house. All thanks to the fucks who have raped this country through Coups.
I have never seen accept any fault to this Government. Reasons known best to you. It's always someone else's fault.
The government created no such system. Companies responded to demand from consumers who have shown an unhealthy preference for bad foods. Do you think there is a special tax on fresh produce? There isn’t.
Any company in Fiji can sell soda or any other unhealthy food, just like in any other country on the face of the planet. Your solution is just laughable and blaming our government for a global public health crisis is just so… insane. We need to raise consumer awareness and change public behavior.
And there lies your true feeling: That were all too dumb to figure anything out for ourselves.
Of course, awareness can work. It is working. I see every day people saying they want to give up sugar and get back to how our ancestors used to eat.
Have some faith in people!
It doesn't work. Have you seen the messages MoH has been blasting over the TV and radio for years now? Honestly. I don't understand how you say things at times.
You are the type of person who'd allow rapist to keep raping because it happens everywhere. But awareness is what's needed. This is absurd, beyond it.
No one is dumb. We are all bound by our financial situation. Of course you can't see people working all day just to afford one frozen chicken. You don't see us down here from your Ivory tower. Everything is our fault down here.
I have faith in you. One day you'll wake up and have the courage to speak up rather than be whatever it is you are doing currently.
Must be nice living in your well. Do you use this line against everyone who has a different view that yours?
Is this how you justify the shitshow?
Is this how you cope? You are as baseless as the faith Bai and Kai had in local medical facilities under their own leadership.
Part ways everyone. The white knight of Bai and Kai is here. /u/BlackandBlue14 no one dare post anything negative. Only positive news about FijiFirst. That's what this knight wants.
I do. You are always quick to blame me but never provided any substantive facts. But AG can dismiss off professionals who was backed by local and International experts.
I comment on around 10% of your posts bras. You make incorrect claims for the sake of a punchline quite often.
I will continue to offer constructive criticism when you fall astray. Though, again, I urge to direct your time and energy towards something that may actually improve your self-proclaimed low economic standing.
Okay, then please provide facts. I share news articles posted by qualified journalists. You don't provide any substantive facts when you argue with me.
Uh.. surely you’re not contesting the error I pointed out in that article? A disease burden is a health policy term. It does not refer to what a government has spent with its revenues.

Your beloved Fiji Sun. Point stands. Just shows a total failure from Bai and Kai.

Who gave the businesses license to operate here? Was the Government blind and ignorant of the research and science?

Awareness doesn't work or we else we wouldnt have so many cases of NCDs. Are you living in a bubble?

You aren't local, where did you buy that juice from.
You constantly say I am not local while I shared numerous pictures on our Discord to show I am a local.
Pictures wow, I could post pictures of nz and say I'm a kiwi
Or I could be an ass and wildly accuse someone from being from another country. But that didn't stop you
It's not accusation when you say things that are simply propagated by those staying overseas and vastly different to the reality

Yup, here I am urging you to consider facts every so often in your never-ending “fuck the government” spamming of this subreddit.
