Last update: 6 minutes ago

Sugar Industry Support: Fiji will lift the manual sugarcane harvesting payment from $3 to $5 a tonne, with the Special Committee on the Sugar Industry also confirming crushing continues and that Fiji Police will increase patrols in cane belts to protect farmers. Rural Access & Agriculture: A $96,000 Makolei farm road in Bua has opened, improving access for 52 households and helping farmers reach markets more reliably. Taveuni Fuel Crisis: Two of Taveuni’s three fuel stations have run dry, leaving buses and businesses at risk as fuel trucks were booked but cancelled at the last minute. Health Services: Korovou Hospital’s X-ray services are set to be restored by end of year after upgrades and staffing plans, following Tailevu residents’ complaints. Security & Livestock: Cattle theft reports are rising in Tailevu; police are running joint operations with biosecurity and agriculture, urging the public to share information via the call centre. Mining & Tax Accountability: Fiji’s private sector is pushing for more mining investment and clearer reporting on excise tax impacts, especially around sugar-related health funding. Tourism & Connectivity: The Tourism Action Group defends the temporary Tourism Services Tax as necessary to protect air connectivity and tourism jobs, while calling for transparency on how funds are managed. Skills & Jobs: Australia’s AUD$229.5m Fiji skills push (2025–2029) aims to close local labour gaps, with the Vuvale Skills Hub in Suva set for official launch next Monday.
