We in SODELPA are ready to be your government, to listen to you and to bring Fiji back to economic prosperity for all. Christiani­ty has been the beacon of light in our Nationhood since the Deed of Cession in 1874. It has provided sense of stability and humanity in times of crisis when Fiji seeks comfort in its time of distress. SODELPA recognises the importance of Christiani­ty in our national governance and intends to restore Christiani­ty faith as the guiding governing principles in its government leadership.

SODELPA believe that Education is the essential ingredient of national economic developmen­t and SODELPA is determined to provide free access to our people to the highest level available to them.

SODELPA recognises the importance of the Living Wage and it will be the priority of any caring leadership and SODELPA government promises to provide $5 /hour to every hourly paid worker which includes housemaids, security guards, cashiers, gardeners, casual workers etc.

SODELPA recognises the shortterm contract that was forced on many employees in the public and private sector during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

It has put insurmount­able stress to our people who were put into these forms of work contract under the consequenc­es of the “Act of God” clause.

SODELPA government promises to provide $5 /hour to every hourly paid worker which includes housemaids, security guards, cashiers, gardeners, casual workers etc.

SODELPA will reverse this work arrangemen­t imposed on our people and restore the normal work arrangemen­t before the imposition of the short-term contract. SODELPA cares for the well-being of our workers and fully understand their current predicamen­t that will be corrected as it comes into government.
