Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama officiated at the Warrant Officers course graduation at the Queen Elizabeth Barracks yesterday.

Addressing the new Warrant Officers, the head of Government acknowledged their commitment to serve the country and to UN peacekeeping in volatile regions across the world.

Mr Bainimarama said Fiji was not only sending troops into areas of conflict to protect ordinary people, but also leading the battle against the effects of climate change.

The Prime Minister also said part of Government’s vision was the sending of a quality brand of Fijian made goods and services to the four corners of the world and the sending of players in various sporting codes to make winners of other teams and other nations.

“This is all part of our grand vision for Fiji in which you all have a vital role.”

A total of 50 warrant officers graduated today.

Also present at the graduation ceremony was the Commander of the Republic of Fiji Military Forces, Rear Admiral Viliame Naupoto and Commissioner of Police, Brigadier-General Sitiveni Qiliho.
