Newly appointed Minister for Women, Children and Social Protection, Sashi Kiran, is determined to focus on her responsibilities following the dismissal of Lynda Tabuya due to a social media incident. Kiran, who was sworn in on Friday, acknowledges the challenges presented by the negative publicity surrounding her predecessor but emphasizes the importance of continuing to serve the community.
Kiran stated, “There is trust, I think where we’re concerned is that ensuring that we get the work done.” She highlighted the ministry’s commitment to supporting the most vulnerable members of society. As she steps into this new role, she calls upon all Fijians to join her in ensuring the ministry’s objectives are met.
Kiran is well-acquainted with the responsibilities of this position, having served as the Assistant Minister since the Coalition Government commenced. Her experience and dedication suggest a seamless transition as she takes on the challenges ahead.
This change in leadership might be an opportunity for renewed focus and a positive shift within the ministry. With strong support from the community and a commitment to serving those in need, there is potential for impactful progress in the welfare of women and children in Fiji.
In summary, while the ministry faces the aftermath of a challenging situation, the new leadership under Sashi Kiran opens doors for growth and a reinforced commitment to support the vulnerable population in Fiji.
