“In order for us to do what is required from the province, or the government, or things that are needed for the people of Tailevu, you need to have their pockets full with money, and that is something we are trying our best to do, to open up areas in which we can have business partnerships with other successful businesses so that we generate that revenue for the people who are there in the village.”

Tudravu says the Council is optimistic about the development plans and is eager to work with relevant government ministries and agencies to meet its targets.
