Prime Minister, Sitiveni Rabuka

Prime Minister, Sitiveni Rabuka says he is glad that his salary is proposed to be reduced in the Parliamentary Emoluments Committee report.

While speaking on the motion to debate and vote on the salary increases recommended for the President, Speaker, Ministers, Assistant Ministers and MPs today, Rabuka says he speaks on behalf of all Fijians and he calls on all MPs not to just look after their own interests.

An emotional Rabuka says he will be guided by his oath as Prime Minister which he swore in December 2022.
