Minister responsible, Rosy Akbar says people need to be properly educated on their health to make the right choices in life.

Akbar says there’s a need to improve health promotion and social mobilization strategies, to improve Fiji’s health services.

She says we need to make sure that all our actions bring about good clinical outcomes and are in line with best practice.
