Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama is currently in Dubai where he is expected to engage in high-level Ministerial meetings and visit key sectoral United Arab Emirates projects recommended by the Fiji Embassy Abu Dhabi.

According to the Office of the Prime Minister, these projects which include the Dubai Fish Farm and the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre pose strategic importance and benefits to Fiji’s development.

It says Bainimarama’s visit is also an opportune time to revisit discussions with UAE leaders on areas of importance to Fiji such as Manpower and Human Resources and Reciprocal Visa Agreement to name a few.

Bainimarama has also been briefed by the Minister for Commerce, Trade, Tourism and Transport Faiyaz Koya and the Permanent Secretary for MCTTT, Shaheen Ali on Fiji’s representation at the World Expo 2020.

The Expo which is currently hosted by Dubai provides dedicated pavilions for all countries, providing countries like Fiji an opportunity to offer their own culturally immersive experience for Expo visitors.

The Fiji pavilion which is managed by MCTTT will also host the Fiji National Day scheduled for tomorrow where the Prime Minister will officiate as Chief Guest.
