SDL BEGINS GENERAL ELECTION CAMPAIGN

SANJEEV MUDALIAR TO TAKE CHARGE

The 2006 General Election campaign began at a ferocious pace with the SDL party appointing former Carpenters Fiji Marketing Director, Sanjeev Mudaliar as its Campaign Director.

Appearing with the tattoo of a dove on his left arm, Mr. Mudaliar immediately announced to the reporters present at the scene that SDL will deliver everything that they will promise

“We are aiming to make the giveaways bigger and better then the last time,” an excited Sanjeev Mudaliar confirmed.

Giving a brief speech after introducing Mr. Mudaliar, SDL's General Secretary, Jale Baba told reporters that he used to disguise himself as different characters and go to the Carpenters Road Shows to gauge Sanjeev Mudaliar's performance.

“There was this one time when I went up to one of the Road Show disguised as Mahendra Chaudary and then I experienced Sanjeev's anger towards ‘Mahend' when I asked for a discount.” “I came back and told Mr. Qarase about my experience and he asked me to get Sanjeev on board," Mr. Baba continued.

In response, the Labour Party released a statement this afternoon, which read that they have requested the services of Courts Homecentres Managing Director, James Datta to manage their campaign adding that they have secured funds for the giveaway from Exim Bank of India.
