Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka urged the iTaukei Land Trust Board to enhance their efforts in serving landowners as key resource owners. While expressing gratitude for the board’s contributions thus far, he emphasized the importance of providing transparent and honest services.
During the celebration of Ratu Sukuna Day at Subrail Park in Labasa, Mr. Rabuka reflected on the enduring legacy of Ratu Sukuna, praising him as a visionary leader whose principles continue to guide the nation. He encouraged all to adhere to the values exemplified by Ratu Sukuna, noting that his vision ensured the protection and empowerment of iTaukei communities, particularly through the establishment of institutions like the iTaukei Land Trust Board.
This strong message echoes sentiments voiced in recent celebrations where community leaders, including Labasa Special Administrator Paul Jaduram, have highlighted Ratu Sukuna’s pivotal role in promoting the welfare of iTaukei people. The ongoing Ratu Sukuna Day festivities serve not only as a tribute to a historical leader but also as an inspiration for current and future generations to follow the values of leadership, service, and unity.
The occasion has brought with it a hope for continued collaboration and development within the community, focusing on nurturing the capacity of local leaders to foster economic growth while cherishing cultural heritage. With this commitment to enhancing services and preserving the legacy of great leaders like Ratu Sukuna, there is a promising outlook for the future of Fiji and its communities.
