The Acting Commissioner of Police Juki Fong Chew has assured all Fijians that the focus remains on ensuring the safety and security of all Fijians and visitors to our shores.

Following a meeting with the Minister for Home Affairs and Immigration Pio Tikoduadua, the Acting Commissioner says he is honoured and thankful for the appointment.

He says he has provided his assurances that it’s business as usual within the Fiji Police Force and they remain committed towards the protection of life and property and the maintenance of law and order.

Acting Commissioner Chew adds officers around the country continue with their work in various capacities in both the investigative and operational arms of policing.

He says they will continue to engage and work on strengthening community policing approaches under the Duavata Community Policing, as they recognize that the most effective way of tackling crime herein lies with our fellow Fijians, law enforcement partners and civil society.
