An email account has been set up for people who require food ration packs within the Suva- Nausori corridor.
The email address is covid19rations@gmail.com
The government says they are dealing with a large call volume and if calls do not get answered, Fijians are alternatively requested to email their details and the request must include the following details: your name, address, Suva-Nausori Lockdown Zone, mobile number and number of household members.
Attorney-General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum has urged only those genuinely requiring rations to call in.
Sayed-Khaiyum says there has been a huge number of calls with a lot of people waiting in the queue and has asked them to be patient as their calls will be answered and their details will be taken down.
He says sometimes they find that there are people who are from the same family-four or five people calling from the same family living under the same roof, make four or five different phone calls.
Sayed-Khaiyum adds obviously, that’s not correct, that’s not right.
He says they are depriving and taking up the time on the line of people that genuinely need to get through
Sayed-Khaiyum assures any genuine person who makes a request will be catered for.
