This year has proven to be rewarding for Fiji’s Ministry of Youth and Sports, according to Minister Jese Saukuru. While concluding his Northern tour on Christmas Eve, Saukuru reflected on the day the coalition government pledged to serve the nation and expressed gratitude for the performance of individuals in sports and youth development across Fiji.

In his remarks, the minister congratulated those who excelled in these fields throughout the year, highlighting the privilege of his role as minister. He acknowledged the contributions of grant recipients and expressed confidence that they would appreciate the ministry’s efforts in 2023. “We look forward to another fruitful year ahead in 2025,” he stated.

Saukuru emphasized the government’s dedication to youth welfare as a priority. He noted that a key aim is to ensure that all young Fijians are treated fairly as part of an inclusive policy that respects diversity in ethnicity, social background, and religious beliefs.

The optimism surrounding the ministry’s endeavors and the commitment to youth welfare reflects a positive trajectory for Fiji’s future, fostering unity and support for the nation’s youth.

As a hopeful note, the push for inclusiveness and recognition of youth contributions signifies a promising path toward enhancing opportunities and support systems for young people in Fiji.
