I wasn’t able to meet Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s Tourism Minister, H.E. Ahmed Al Khateeb أحمد الخطيب during his recent Fiji visit. But today, Excellency and I, met to reaffirm our shared vision of ensuring tourism is a catalyst for prosperity in our countries.

A land of hope, a land of freedom, and a land of opportunities. On this #FijiDay, I extend warmest wishes to my fellow Fijians. We have come a long way in our journey to prosperity — a journey in which no one gets left behind.

In many ways, we’re fortunate to call Fiji home — a home where we celebrate our diversity. Diwali is a time for sharing and caring, and triumph of good over evil. It is my hope, the light it brings reaches every corner of your homes. #HappyDiwali to my fellow Fijians 🇫🇯
