Government is investing in upgrading facilities all around Fiji, Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama says.

He adds this is because Government is committed to the principle that every place in our country be given equal attention.

Mr Bainimarama made this comment  at the opening of the Multi Purpose Hall and renovated Garvey Park in Tavua yesterday.

He said: “We have many needs in Fiji, and all communities must share in the resources we have to meet those needs and in the blessings those resources can bring when Government uses them wisely.

“Our aim after the terrible storms we have been suffering is not just to build back, but to build back better and stronger. And that is what we have done here after the damage these facilities suffered in Tropical Cyclone Winston.

“Government has worked closely with the Council to upgrade this famous Garvey Park with the hope that it will spur the development of sporting activities and training in the area.

“Garvey Park will also be a venue for social gatherings and events for the people of and around Tavua.”
