The Chair of the Investment Facilitation Committee, Shaheen Ali confirms approximately 90 projects valued at $1.8 billion are ready to be materialised in Fiji.

Ali has called for support of the approval agencies to streamline and fast track approvals, without compromising the laws.

The Permanent Secretary for Commerce, Trade, Tourism and Transport says these investments are critically important now, as we are shaping our economic recovery.

Ali adds if the Committee is able to unlock these investment projects, they will change the economic landscape of Fiji.

He says the Committee will focus on achieving results and at the same time identifying administrative hurdles that can be reviewed and revised.
