Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama is currently in Kadavu distributing relief supplies to affected communities and villages.

Speaking from Kadavu, Bainimarama says many children greeted them on the docks with their smiley faces filled with hope and parents carrying boxes of supplies hopeful that they will be able to take care of their families again.

Bainimarama says he saw community leaders filled with hope that they can begin to rebuild their lives after the devastation of Tropical Cyclone Harold.

He says the brutality of TC Harold arrived in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and a crisis already testing the limits of people’s resilience.

The Prime Minister adds that from the many people he met, it has shown him the power of hope to overcome challenges.

Bainimarama says in the difficult months to come, as the economy struggles under the strain of this global pandemic, he hopes to see global corporation strengthen in response to these historic challenges.

The Prime Minister and his delegation will be distributing relief supplies including tents, stoves, water tanks, hygiene kits and shelter kits and food rations to these villages.
