Minister for Education Aseri Radrodro is optimistic about future collaboration with the United Arab Emirates to improve Fiji’s education system.

During a meeting with United Arab Emirates Envoy to the Pacific Omar Shehadeh, Radrodro expressed gratitude for the construction of three schools in the country by the UAE.

These schools are Ratu Simione Matanitobua College, Muaira Methodist College, and Sigatoka Methodist College, and Radrodro says such development is more than a contribution to infrastructure as it is a powerful investment in the future of Fiji.
