Damaged schools

IF you drive along our Kings and Queens highways, one can view the many nicely built stalls on the roadside that I believe were certified by government engineers to be able to withstand a Category 5 cyclone.

Wow, thank you FijiFirst government. I wish our engineers in government and green uniforms could also be able to rebuild and certify cyclone damaged schools to withstand catastrophic cyclones in the future.

By the way, perhaps Premila Kumar if the mentioned highway stalls could be also built for the Nadi Back Road market vendors similar to the ones built along Vakabalea, Navua. Not forgetting those fresh produce sellers also seeking assistance nationwide.

It will surely assist the market vendors during this crisis and also it will cater for the residents living on the outback of urban Namaka, especially Master Sio and his farm manager tavale Bill.

This is part of the speech by the Prime Minister published on (FT 6/6, 2018) while opening the roadside stall at Vakabalea, Navua: “The handover is just the beginning of a program and we expect to grow every year, reaching more vendors throughout the country, giving them facilities they need to run their businesses well and to operate safely from”.

So please Minister for Local Government and your boss, don’t make life harder when everyone is going through so much already if you can understand where this nation and its economy sits today.
