“With the political upheaval that have happened through the years in 1987 to 2001 then to 2006, that cost us problems especially the difficulties to have public meetings during those times but now we are alright. We are doing our best to get our accounts organized and write our reports according to what the law requires.”

Adi Finau says they will ensure they comply with the Act before they continue with some of their major projects.

The Soqosoqo Vakamarama iTaukei was established in 1924 and women from the 14 provinces are part of the organization.
