Police presence and public safety are taking center stage in Nadi as the Christmas crowd swells in the town and its surroundings. With an uptick in shopping, outdoor sales, and nightlife activities, local businesses emphasize the importance of security to maintain consumer confidence during the festive season.
Lawrence Kumar, President of the Nadi Chamber of Commerce, noted ongoing communication with the Nadi Police Station to address safety issues. “We’ve been in constant contact with the Nadi Police Station. We’ve had a meeting with the ASP of Nandi to ensure the level of security is maintained in town and outside of town as well throughout Nadi,” he stated.
Kumar highlighted that police have pledged to collaborate closely with various stakeholders to prioritize safety for locals, visitors, and families throughout the festive period. “People are able to sort of go out there, enjoy their family time, as how they are doing in the daytime, they can obviously be enjoying it in the nighttime as well,” he said.
The continued partnership between businesses, police, and local authorities will be vital to ensure that Nadi remains a safe and inviting destination throughout the Christmas and New Year period, particularly as the town enters one of its busiest trading seasons of the year. This collaborative approach looks set to foster an enjoyable atmosphere for everyone, contributing to a joyful and secure festive experience.
