Fiji's new president, Ratu Josefa Iloilo, is expected to announce a new interim Government today.
The Daily Post newspaper in Fiji claims Ratu Josefa will name current interim Prime Minister Laisenia Qarase to stay on in the position.
Diplomatic sources said the new government would also include two Indians: businessmen Iqubal Jannif and George Shiu Raj.
Meanwhile, civil unrest around Fiji appears to be waning.
In Suva, police and prison officers have regained control of Naboro maximum security prison where inmates had rioted and held 30 wardens captive since last week.
Seven prisoners were injured in the assault and taken to hospital with two immegiatelyl undergoing surgery, according to a local radio station, FM96.
One prisoner was killed and 14 admitted to hospital last Thursday following a mass break-out from the prison, while another group of prisoners took the wardens hostage.
The prisoners, who had earlier complained of ill-treatment by prison authorities, reportedly pledged support for Fijian rebels led by George Speight.
Speight last week released Fiji's first ethnic-Indian Prime Minister Mahendra Chaudhry after holding him and 17 other parliamentarians hostage for nearly two months. Fourteen other hostages were released on two occasions during the hostage drama.
In central Viti Levu, landowners are expected to give up their occupation of Fiji's main hydroelectic power station soon.
Army spokesman Major Howard Politini says the Monasavu landowners will traditionally apologise to the military before handing over their weapons.
"The situation is that the plans are underway that the lanowners will be coming down to the barracks ... with the weapons and soldiers that they seized so we are looking forward to these people coming down shortly," Politini said.
Major Politini says the military is doing its best to have all arms returned to the barracks - including those used by Speight and his fellow rebels when they seized parliament on May 17th.
"We've had assurances from the parliamentary complex that all the weapons [are] left to be retrieved and returned to us. We are still awaiting this to happen as we speak," he said.
The dispute at Turtle Island resort in northwestern Fiji has also been resolved. Naisisili villagers left the resort saying there will be no repeats of last week's events.
The land dispute relates to the grant of freehold title for Nanuya Levu (Turtle Island) in 1890. Local villagers say they were not compensated for giving up possession of the island.
The owner of Turtle Island Resort, Richard Everson, says compensation is being negotiated and there will be a minimum of $F10,000 paid over a period of time.
Landowners who took over police stations in the northern division last week, have returned to their homes.
Police spokesperson Sera Bernard confirms Savusavu and Seaqaqa stations are now manned by the police.
A police station in Labasa was returned to police on Saturday and Korovou police station in Viti levu was handed back on Friday.
The Levuka fishing company PAFCO continues to be held by landowners, however.
