As the Wheelbarrow association members get ready for their Thanksgiving service for this year Sakiusa Cama an older member of the association said a lot has changed since he started doing wheelbarrow runs for just 50 cents.
Cama who today still works from the Suva market said the Wheelbarrow boys now have an association, have a Constitution, operate with licenses, with many even having their own bank and FNPF accounts.
