An Australian will take up the CEO’s position at the Land Transport Authority.
LTA Board Chairman Vijay Maharaj has confirmed that the new CEO is currently working in Vanuatu and they are expecting him in Fiji before the 1st of May.
Maharaj says they will announce his name once his visa is approved.
When questioned on why the position has been given to an expatriate, Maharaj stated that they received applications from many countries.
He says it is a good idea to bring a person from outside who can give a new direction to LTA and also improve the service delivery.
