Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama says they are doing everything they can to grow our economy, raise living standards and provide our people with interesting, sustainable livelihoods.
He made these comments during a talanoa session with the Fijian community living in Brisbane.
Bainimarama also discussed key areas that would boost socioeconomic growth in Fiji ‑ including agriculture and rural development, industry and trade, lands and mineral resources, itaukei affairs as well as Fiji's regional and international obligations.
In discussing these different sectors, the Prime Minister also highlighted key initiatives that are being implemented in the 2017‑2018 National Budget.
These initiatives include welfare support, education support, investment support, as well as funds allocated to boost the utilities and ICT sector.
Bainimarama has also invited Fijians who have made Brisbane their home, to work with Government in building the "new Fiji".
The PM and his delegation receive feedback and questions from these former Fijians on the work carried out by government which included ICT capacity for investment, the future of Fiji's sugar industry, dual citizenship, land leases, tourism, importing food crops from Fiji amongst other things.
