The Acting Prime Minister recognized the surfers’ commitment to both their craft and the environment, underscoring the need to protect Fiji’s pristine waters and ecosystems.
“We hope that the equipment will certainly help your business and we look forward to seeing your business grow over the next few years. Also I’d just like to compliment you on the initiatives regarding coral regeneration and using that coral to regrow dead areas of coral and now it’s certainly that the government can perhaps look at closely and work with some donor partners to push this along and regrow areas that are probably dead right now.
The jet skis, provided through the Integrated Human Resource Development Programme, aim to enhance the capabilities of local businesses in the tourism sector.
Kamikamica notes that supporting such initiatives is critical for fostering sustainable economic growth.
