Opposition Leader Sitiveni Rabuka

Opposition Leader Sitiveni Rabuka says we all have to be positive about the measurements that have been announced in the 2020/2021 National Budget.

Speaking to Fijivillage after the Budget Address, Rabuka says the main purpose of the budget is recovery and we will have to wait and see how much of the recovery can be made from the budget.

Rabuka says it is their job now to properly critique it and hopefully the nation can get behind them to achieve the ultimate goal which is to get the economy back.
