The field of information and communication technology is forever evolving, says Swaran Ravindra.

She is a senior instructor/industry consultant in the Information Technological Training Department at the Fiji National University’ s National Training and Productivity Center.

Ms Ravindra has been with FNU for the past 15 years and her role has never been limited to just teaching or training.

“The field of information and communication technology is forever evolving,” Ms Ravindra said.

She learns new things everyday through her work as an academia, and actively participates in global internet governance through her association with Asia Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forum.

She was humbled to be recognised during the Fiji Business Excellence Awards for the five years’ service to the nation as an evaluator.

Her award was given by the President Ratu Wiliame Katonivere.

Where Is The One Place In Fiji You Would Take Visitors To?

Sabeto Mud Bath and Hot Spring is so serene and peaceful.

Perfect getaway starting from rubbing mud all over the body, climbing and sitting on one of the branches of that huge tree and sipping on fresh coconut water while enjoying the mountain views.

The massage from the bubus is to die for.

Bulaccino- Nadi

What Do You Do In Your Spare Time?

Read, or drive to Sabeto Mud Bath, meet up with our little niece Naara, and chat with my friend Viny Liku who is a florist at Namaka Market.

I love the conversations with the market vendors.

Taveuni- I have heard so much about its beauty.
