The Public Service Commission has rescinded the appointment of Pita Wise, the former Permanent Secretary for the Office of the Prime Minister, as Fiji’s Head of Mission to Japan. The PSC confirmed this decision in a statement following Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka’s announcement that Wise had been chosen to serve as Fiji’s High Commissioner to Japan. The Commission also clarified its decision and the context surrounding it. Wise resigned from his position after more than 18 months of service as a senior government official, citing personal reasons.
