Good news for 192 families living in Vatulaulau Stages 1 and 2, Tarivo, Talaiya, Nasolo, Waiwai, and nearby areas, as they will now benefit from the newly opened Vatulaulau Cemetery in Ba.



The project was supported through the Multi-Ethnic Grant Program to bring dignity and convenience to families who previously had to travel long distances for burials.



The Ministry contributed $14,951.35, while the local committee covered the balance, showcasing the true spirit of partnership between the Government and the community.



Minister Charan Jeath Singh says a well-maintained cemetery is more than just a resting place—it reflects the deep respect a community holds for life beyond death.
