Hard work and perseverance
MANY immigrants from all over the globe have come to settle in our home country and some have become integrated into our ways of life and also bringing their rich culture and religious beliefs.
Many of them have gone on to become successful businessman and women. One of them is Hong Mei Shi, whose story which was published on March 4 on Page 10. In of not getting paid after joining? Who can forget Ryan sitting at the sand dunes plotting a win at the Rio Olympics and who can forget the words veilomani and talanoa which he constantly used to get his players together and create that bonding?
He is a master class and I raise my hand in support to get Ben back in any capacity.
Joka Ben. Joka sevens. Joka Tuiloa and joka Viti. Toso, kerekere levu na veilomani kei na talanoa.
Lastly who better to inform that story, it was mentioned that through perseverance and determination, she was able to overcome her struggles as a foreigner and became an entrepreneur.
With this in mind I suggest we give in our 100 per cent support to their business as they are contributing to our economy in a way that it benefits us as a whole.
With this I leave you with the famous us of this brilliant idea than na nomu, na noqu Viti kaukauwa Times! Joka dina Viti kei vuravura 154 years of talanoa and veilomani!

FRED WESLEY quote by Jon Heywood that “nothing is impossible to a willing heart” which is a lesson to locals that you can achieve anything if you put your whole mind and soul into it and it does not matter wherever you are you can achieve them too as what these immigrants like Hong Mei have done.
