Minister for Industry and Trade Premila Kumar has stated that thorough processes should be followed by every investor wanting to invest in Fiji.

Kumar who is part of the government delegation that is currently on a state visit in Sydney says more interest has been received from overseas investors.

As Fiji continues to grow economically, Kumar says investors will need to be well screened.

“So that when we receive investors we truly understand what they mean. Because when you don’t see a facility like that, sometimes we feel maybe they got other agenda’s or probably its not suitable for investors.”

More bilateral meetings are expected to take place with the Australian government in the coming days.
