YOUNG Ugandan entrepreneur Ronald Katamba paid recognition to Fiji as the 9th Commonwealth Youth Ministers’ Meeting on Thursday in Kampala, Uganda.
A Department of Information media statement yesterday said Mr Katamba was the developer of the “Jaguza” Livestock App who said his platform helped sharing information and if a Fijian wanted to share with an Australian farm expert, they would connect in real time without moving.
His award recognised his initiatives in health, climate change, agriculture and education.
“The most important is the offline platform because we want people who cannot access internet to have a platform where they can actually share information,” he said.
Minister of Youth and Sports Laisenia Tuitubou said “This shows the impact Fiji is having on the international stage as our footprint continues to expand with more people getting to know more about Fiji and the Pacific now than ever before.”
Mr Tuitubou said Mr Katamba “was impressed by Fiji and the Honourable Attorney-General who inspired him to continue to expand his horizons.”
