“Not enough books have been written to give us a proper Fijian narrative, a permanent record of the great events that make up the story of Fiji.”
These were the words of Prime Minister Rear Admiral Voreqe Bainimarama while launching the books “Malayan Campaign” and its i-Taukei version “Vala Mai Maleya” written by Manu Korovulavula.
The Prime Minister said it’s wonderful that the story has suddenly been brought to life in the pages of these books and he urges as many Fijians as possible to read them.
