A youth group in Nalawa, Ra has taken a bold step into the business world by opening a clothing outlet in their village.
Based at Rokovuaka Village with close to fifty members, the Rokovuaka Veitacini Collection Youth Group embarked on this project to complement their farming projects and their development plans.
Assistant Minister for Youth and Sports Alipate Nagata has praised the initiative by the group members and urged them to continue with their work for the growth and development of the village and the economy.
Nagata says the initiative shown by the Veitacini Youth Group shows the positive mindset adopted by the members to ensure economic growth within the group and the surrounding communities.
Club's Secretary and Spokesperson, Sailosi Konataci says the move was something they had anticipated to bring about a change in the mindset amongst the members and also to instil a self-dependability attitude.
Konataci says the youths are our future and with the right focus and direction they can ensure a firm future for the village of Rokovuaka.
