Episode of news and current affairs programme 'Checkpoint' from 7 April 1988.
Opening theme music, greeting from Janice Aplin followed by intro to tonight's stories.

It's now practically a year since a coalition government led by Dr Timoci Bavadra came to power in Fiji, a government that was to last a bare month before it was deposed in a coup led by military officer, Brigadier Rambuka.
Janice Aplin interviews Dr Timoci Bavadra (Former Prime Minister, Fiji) in the studio.

The Auckland Power Board and Electricorp are still at loggerheads over a fair price for electricity. Electricorp now negotiates directly with power boards over the bulk price and in the harsh realities of the commercial world the negotiations have hit a snag with the powerful Auckland Board.
