Like cmon I grew up in Fiji, I played on its field, I ate the food that grew from it’s Earth. I am Fijian and forever will be one. And as for your racist comment, you dare to say that Indians made Fiji a better place, have you forgotten that Fiji and India were both under British rule. Indians did not make Fiji a better place they did not stand alone they had the support from its native (not all of them but a majority of them). We Fijians together made Fiji a better place. So stop being so arrogant and have a nice day😁.

@@CellularShenenigans Interesting.. what was the contribution of your ancestors to fiji as indentured labor ? are you more mad at the british and proud of your indian heritage or you glad the british got your ancestors there and glad you don't live in india anymore ? from your comment it feels like you want to be distanced from india and be known as fijian and not indian ? sorry just curious and fascinated by that as i seldom come across communities that want to distance from their ancestoral identity unless its as a result of a abrahamic faith converstion to islam or christinity in which case you are expected to reject your past religion but here it seems like the indians in fiji still practise their indian faith perhaps ? would appreciate if you can throw some light into your identity. thanks.
@CellularShenenigans6 жыл бұрын
@@suerayss Well my ancestors like the ancestors of most other indo-fijians were builders, farmers,and sugar mill workers. And yes I do feel glad that the british got my ancestors out of India, however: yes it wasn't the civil way to do it nor was it fair since the majority of indentured labourers couldn't read of write, and the contracts they signed were written in English. Why am I glad? because I wouldn't have existed if my ancestors from both my maternal and paternal side did not leave india. Not only I but my parents and my grandparents and my great grandparents would have never existed if my ancestors did not leave india. This would be a long as comment( ironically this will definitely be a long comment but I'll try my best to keep it short) if I were to write all the reasons for these circumstances but.... you can find out why on the internet by just learning about the caste system of india( Which a large majority of the indentured labourers would have not cared about after living with people from the different regions of india who had different beliefs). And yes I do want to be known as a Fijian rather than an indian because the culture of the two countries is different. Think of it like a diverging path where the road splits in the end and leads to two very different cities. And while a large majority of the the indo-fijians believe in hinduism that does not change the fact that there is large cultural difference that separates us fijians of indian descent from Indians from india. This is largely due to the fact that after serving their 5 years of paid labour the indians who had been brought to Fiji by the British decided to stay and there were even indians( those from the Gujarat and Punjab region) who came after the indentured labour system had been abolished. The 20th century had a drastic effect on all countries with the advancement of science and technology and of course both the World Wars. The influence of western, pacifica, chinese and indian culture definitely had a drastic effect on the girmitiyas of Fiji and the Native Fijians, from what they ate to how they dressed, to the style of music that they played. I identify myself as a Fijian because of the history of my ancestors. I've grown up in a community of people from different ancestral backgrounds who value Humanity, humility and humbleness over anything else and even though we might not be the richest country I assure you the Fijians have a big heart and are always friendly. Fijians those native and those who came afterwards and those who are yet to be born will always stand united under the noble banner blue.

Well you'd be wrong with the last semi-unknown culture thing as there are numerous indigenous cultures around the world from Russia to India to China to the Caucasus and Africa that the West are clueless about.

Have lived in Fiji for 8 years now. Pretty good video! Only critique was the bizarre spelling for the Mananuca's on the image for the island group. Well done, thanks! Now I have a video I can send to my folks back in my country of origin that summarizes things quite nicely.

I think what he did was he uploaded the video, then quickly made it private, making it so it wouldn't show up in your sub-box. I got here because my old iOS 6 iPod still has the old notification system, so when the video went up, even though he made it private, the notification never leaves, which allows me to view the video whenever I want. I don't know why he even uploaded it in the first place, but it's probably for his Patrons, or maybe he's testing something out.
