 The Head Heeb: Lebanese politics for beginners, part 2
No single party controls more than ten percent of the legislature, parties as a whole have never accounted for more than 30 percent, and the allegiances of most members of parliament are based on personal or sectarian rather than ideological ties.

In what was one of Fiji's most bitterly fought elections ever, the newly-formed United Fiji Party of the interim Prime Minister Laisenia Qarase narrowly defeated the Fiji Labour Party of deposed former Prime Minister Mahendra Chaudhry.
The United Fiji Party won 18 of the 23 seats reserved for ethnic Fijians and one of three "general electorates" set aside for Fiji's European, Chinese, and other minorities.
On 18 July 2003, the Supreme Court of Fiji ruled that Qarase's exclusion of the Labour Party from the Cabinet was unconstitutional, and demanded that the situation be rectified.

 Articles - Constitution of Fiji: Chapter 7   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
In the Westminster model, this is assumed to be the leader of the political party or coalition holding a majority of seats in the House of Representatives.
In cases where no legislative majority exists, however, due to party splits (as happened in 1992) or to electoral fragmentation, the President must exercise his or her personal discretion and appoint as Prime Minister the person he or she considers most likely hold the confidence of the House of Representatives.
Fiji's decision to follow a similar course was another reflection of its faith in British constitutional models: while the standard Westminster cabinet model was rejected as unsuited to local conditions, alternative models rooted in British practice were studied, and one was adopted.
