The FijiFirst Party has assured the people they have a plan to deliver whatever they promise to do, and their development vision is captured in their 5-year and 20-year National Development Plan and the infrastructure they plan to build, the services they intend to extend and improve, and the policies they are implementing are all clearly stated in the recently announce 2022-2023 National Budget.

According to the FijiFirst, their manifesto which was released last night is a principled statement of the intention that speaks to what the movement represents : Proven Leadership that guarantees stability, equality, security and opportunity for all Fijians.

The FijiFirst Party says those who seek to divide us, seek political gain from discord and disagreement and make false promises are not true leaders and believes true leaders brings us together, puts the interests of the nation before their own and speaks the truth.

The say FijiFirst has created jobs, supported our tourism industry, kept families safe, expanded roads, continued to bring in telecommunications, electricity and drinkable water to neighbourhoods and homes, improved schools and hospitals in Fiji, upgraded roads and built news ones, protected our natural resources and took more steps to make us resilient against climate change.

The FijiFirst Party says they provided relief to families in the worst global economic crisis in history through social welfare and provided more than $500 million in unemployment assistance and indirect social support.

They say the efforts of FijiFirst has resulted in adequate and free vaccine supplies being distributed quickly and efficiently so everyone were vaccinated and according to their manifesto, FijiFirst’s quick and strong response to the economic crisis has prepared our nation to rebound and recover.

They also say FijiFirst’s economic recovery plan has Fiji on course to create new jobs and increase our national minimum wage to an all-time record rate.

They say the support of the FijiFirst government has also enabled entrepreneurs and small businesses to emerge from the crisis stronger than ever with hundreds of small businesses opening and creating jobs and contributing to our communities.

According to the FijiFirst manifesto, fear or hatred by anyone else is not what brought members and supporters of the FijiFirst together but they are united by principles and values of fairness, equality and opportunities for everyone.

They also say they will continue to support the vulnerable and deliver the real change that will impact lives in Fiji.
