“The signs are very positive and I’ve linked them up to investors so that we can see some big brands here in Fiji. But as an indication of how they hold Fiji, people of India very high. Fiji is held in high esteem in India because they say our diaspora live in Fiji.”

Gavoka adds the anticipated influx of investments not only signifies a boost to Fiji’s economy but also underscores the growing partnership between the two nations.
