Suva City Council Chair, Ritesh Singh highlighted this during the Market Vendors Christmas Celebration today.

Singh says they are also planning to minimize the setting up of informal or unregistered traders around the market areas.
The council has also urged the vendors to step in and help keep the facilities intact and kept clean at all times.
