Tevita Boseiwaqa, the chairman of the Suva City Council’s special administrators, has announced plans for the council to transition to a digital platform during this financial year. This move aims to enhance operational efficiency and service delivery for ratepayers.
In an interview, Boseiwaqa highlighted that the installation process is currently in its initial stages. He expressed optimism about becoming more digitalized over the coming year and mentioned that the council is working on various digital transformation initiatives, which are also in the early phases.
