Minister for Local Government Premila Kumar has today launched the redevelopment of Ratu Sukuna Park which will include new features like digital screens for events and installation of Digital devices such as charging ports.

Kumar says they are creating a space for families to enjoy.

The Minister says in re-developing this park, they are taking one more step in making downtown Suva greener, more livable and quite simply a more enjoyable place to visit.

She says in eight months’ time, people will be able to enjoy this newly designed, modern park.

Kumar says there are 70 parks in Suva.
