Fiji’s willingness to help will not be forgotten – Feakes

Australian High Commissioner to Fiji, John Feakes says Fiji’s willingness to help when Australia was in need, will not be forgotten.

While celebrating the 1 year anniversary of Fiji sending RFMF personnel to fire-ravaged areas in Australia, Feakes says Fiji and Australia are deeply connected, they are there for each other when things are great and when things get tough.

The arrival of HMAS Adelaide and Australia’s swift response to assist Fiji following TC Yasa marked another milestone in the Fiji-Australia partnership.

The RFMF and Army engineers from HMAS Adelaide have rebuilt Galoa Primary school which was severely damaged by TC Yasa and they will today return the school to the Ministry of Education.
