This $23 million investment is by the P.Meghji Group of Companies Limited.

While speaking at the ground breaking ceremony today, Attorney General and Minister for Finance Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum says for many years, Lautoka City has not seen the development of any hotels.

He adds Lautoka as the second city of the country has a limited capacity of hosting events and the new developments will increase this capacity.

Sayed-Khaiyum highlights that a number of legal issues regarding the project were before the court which have been resolved.

He also gave a message to those people who are opposing the project that the site is not taking up all the Shirley Park area but just a small portion of it.
