We are not here to build a Fiji that will only stand for one year but we are building a Fiji that will last.
Those were the words of the Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama while opening the four new Niusawa Methodist High School teacher’s quarters in Taveuni.
Bainimarama says with the additional four new quarters, teachers will be accommodating at the school which means greater supervision for students.
He says we cannot take backwards steps and have rush job mentality of the past governments as this has cost Fiji too much already.
He says government will not take any short cuts for political gain and they are never prepared to risk future hardship for the people of Fiji.
Bainimarama says the government has already begun rebuilding 79 schools around the country with plans to begin constructions in 55 other schools.
He says they are building schools that will stand for generations, homes that can be dependent on to keep our people sheltered and infrastructure that can be relied upon in times of crisis.
