The new Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Colonel Pio Tikoduadua says he will need a bit of adjusting to his new appointment.

The former Permanent Secretary in the PM’s Office says the new position is a transition.

“I cannot say that I was surprised because I was the chairman for roads and PS responsible for Road and doing work in the area or infrastructure so the appointment to this portfolio I think is complimented by the fact that I’ve been doing some work in that area previously.”

Tikoduadua won a seat in the new parliament in last week’s general election.
