Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka says we are now one nation of different beliefs and cultures.

While speaking at the Girmit Day Celebrations in Lautoka, Rabuka says let us as a nation move forward and we cannot build a new future relying on their vision and beliefs of the past.

Rabuka further says to him the underlying theme of the new Girmit holiday is about unity and how we can achieve this.

He adds what he saw in the programme is exactly what is required.

Rabuka says but it must be done consistently and with more awareness of how we can overcome our differences.
