Acting Police Commissioner Juki Fong Chew has expressed his support for Rusiate Tudravu, who has been appointed as the new Commissioner of Police. Mr. Chew highlighted Mr. Tudravu’s previous experience, particularly his role as acting Commissioner and his external evaluation of the police force.
Chew encouraged the police force to extend the same support to Tudravu that they provided him during his tenure. He emphasized the importance of collaboration for the betterment of the police department and the community it serves.
As Mr. Chew approaches the end of his two-year term, he reflected on the challenges faced by both the police force and the Coalition government, stating, “We’ve done our best with the knowledge and support we had, always striving to serve the people of Fiji.”
During a recent ceremony honoring over 300 police officers, including both retirees and current members, Chew presented medals of honor for their dedicated service to the nation. He urged officers to remain focused on their mission and to rise above negative distractions.
In response to inquiries about his new role, Mr. Tudravu acknowledged Mr. Chew’s leadership and indicated that he would maintain a low profile until he officially begins his duties next month. Mr. Chew confirmed that he will transition back to his role as Deputy Police Commissioner and is preparing to start his leave this week.
This transition signifies a renewed opportunity for the police force to align on its mission, setting a positive tone for future initiatives under Mr. Tudravu’s leadership.
In summary, the appointment of Rusiate Tudravu as the new Commissioner of Police presents an opportunity for growth and collaboration within the force, ensuring continuity in leadership while maintaining a focus on service to the community. This positive transition can inspire hope for enhanced public safety and community trust in the police service moving forward.
