When people are free to rationalise Democracy, they will conclude that it is a system for the promotion of desired political and popular opinions serving the ruler - global capitalists. It is not a system based on universal principles, but upon securing the opinions of the majority. It is the opinions of the majority that the so-called democratic vote is carried to elect the ruler. And this has found favour with the predominant race since the age of democratic election. To vote for the ruler who will ensure the safe keep of wealth and resources for the majority. The ruler is obviously a delegate of the majority.

The Church is not a democratic organisation for followers are not so much as following principles, but are inspired to follow principles. Individuals are free within principles to practise what is right not only for oneself but also for others. Freedom is not a material and individual liberty to do as one pleases, but rational freedom bound by the responsibility.

It's interesting how Fiji has moved from Democracy to a Military rule that has impacted upon the population. Common and social ills associated with Democracy in the West are checked by its military regime. As Fiji moves closer to the East, it enjoys the luxury of new economic relations with ties to similar style of governing. Will Fiji become a powerhouse of the South Pacific enjoying its new found freedom from democratic manipulations of the West to submission under a military regime remains to be seen as its social structure is opened to new developments.

A Human Right is a right related to human irrespective of race and culture. You cannot render a human right exclusive to a specific race while others are excluded. That's why human rights are universal.

Between Military rule and Democracy can achieve a certain kind of freedom necessarily acquiring individuals to do the right thing. It works because individuals won't be punished for doing what is right, a development of freedom within principles. Democracy enhances the individual to do what he/she likes, Military curbs those rights when encroaching the rights of others. Both can achieve the ideal.
