The Chinese Ambassador to Fiji, Zhang Ping handed over $5,000 worth of carpentry equipment to the Permanent Secretary for Youth and Sports to assist the people of Koro in rebuilding their homes after the devastating effects of Tropical Cyclone Winston.
A total of six villages in the Tikina of Cawa in Koro will receive these equipment as some youths from Koro went through carpentry courses at the Technical College of Fiji.
This assistance is the first phase of development of the $40,000 given by the Chinese Government last year to the Ministry of Youth and Sports.
