FTIB urges Government to maintain investment policies

The Fiji Islands Trade and Investment Bureau has urged the Interim Government to maintain current investment policies. The Bureau said that foreign investors are familiar with the current policies therefore there was a need to maintain them. This would keep foreign investors interest in investing in Fiji.

FTIB's Chief Executive Officer, Ms Lailun Khan, says that interest in investing in Fiji is getting off the ground again. A large agricultural project is to be put up by a Chinese Government investment at Navua over the next few months. The Chinese Government body is presently negotiating a deal with landowners there.

In the meantime, the Interim Government is currently working on a revised National Budget which will be announced in early March. The actual form the country's investment policy takes will be clearer then.
