After nine long years of construction, the much-anticipated facility will be opened by Minister for Health Dr Ratu Atonio Lalabalavu tomorrow.

The project, which was fast-tracked by the current Government, aims to provide essential health services to the remote island’s population of almost 2000 people, benefiting residents in 15 main villages.
