As we enter the third day of the USP workers’ strike, Minister for Education, Aseri Radrodro confirms that he has asked the USP Council for an update on the direction that it wishes to take regarding the strike.
While responding to questions from fijivillage News, Radrodro says Fiji is a member of the Council.
He says it is important that we allow the council to make its decision on the strike without undue influence, especially discussing issues in the media.
Radrodro says we must respect the independence and wisdom of the council.
He stresses for Fiji, their primary concern will be to ensure that our children’s education is prioritised and there are minimal disruptions to their studies given we have exams just around the corner.
Radrodro says as Minister for Education, they hope to have the dispute resolved amicably between the two parties, and they encourage them to talk and resolve the issues the Pacific way.
