Gavoka says tourism is Fiji’s biggest revenue earner and employer

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Tourism and Civil Aviation, Viliame Gavoka says tourism is Fiji’s biggest revenue earner and employer and thousands of people’s livelihoods rely on the strength and health of the sector.

While launching the Fiji Spartan Trifecta event in Denarau, Nadi, Gavoka says the coalition government’s support for Spartan programs is for 3 years and he is confident that the Fiji government will deliver something better each year.

With the participants from all over the globe coming for the Spartan event from Australia, China, USA, Japan and New Zealand, and with the inclusion of some locals who have also signed to participate, the event looks promising.

He further adds the Government of Fiji will continue to invest in the tourism sector and in initiatives that will uplift the Fiji brand.

Gavoka says the government wants to connect with new visitors and reconnect with the existing ones, enticing the world to visit and experience Fiji for themselves.
