Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Professor Biman Prasad has encouraged the younger generations of Rotuma to participate in Fiji’s politics to ensure their voices were heard.
While delivering his opening remarks at the Rotuma Day celebration in Suva yesterday, he said diverse voices lead to rich solutions.
“Fiji needs you, the more diverse the voices are at the table the richer the solutions we can present,” Prof Prasad said.
Fiji Rotuma Association chairman Victor Fatiaki said the Rotuman community had overcome many challenges in the past years but continued towards achieving its visions and values for present and future generations of Rotuma.
“The preservation and promotion of our heritage is what we proudly celebrate every year,” he said.
