The Attorney General and the Minister Responsible for Civil Aviation Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum virtually met with the Minister for Tourism Faiyaz Koya and stakeholders from Fiji Airways, Tourism Fiji and the Ministry of Health yesterday about the re-opening of Fiji’s international borders.

In a statement, the government says Sayed-Khaiyum emphasized to stakeholders the importance of all health and safety measures to ensure the safety of all Fijians, visitors and tourism sector workers.

He stresses that this would ensure we have a viable and sustainable tourism industry.

The Health Ministry has stated that as the second dose coverage increases, local and international travel restrictions and other social and workplace engagement restrictions are being eased.

It stresses that the public must remain cautious about how they engage in the greater freedoms that they will enjoy.
