We need to reflect on the victory of light from darkness through our community as we celebrate Diwali this year.

Commander of the Republic of Fiji Military Forces, Major General Ro Jone Kalouniwai highlighted this to fijivillage News after the Remembrance Day celebration at the National War Memorial Site, Veiuto.

Major General Kalouniwai hopes that Fijians will enjoy the celebration and hold on to that victory, so that we can all work together as one people and one nation as a whole.

Meanwhile, Fiji is currently on the second day of the five-day festival of Diwali.
