He says the landowners should utilise the resources around them but a lot of them do not understand where to go for support.

Th GCC Chair adds that they will put to the members today a suggestion that there should be a representative within each province to link the provincial councils, and that person will be the link to the Ministry of iTaukei Affairs.
