THE gift of life to a child is given by a mother
but a second or subsequent chance of life is
given by a blood donor.
The act of giving blood therefore is indeed
noble and the Western Campus of one of the
principal Universities in the country has been
given recognition as a leading blood drive
organizer for the last five years.
University of the South Pacifics Lautoka
campus have been rewarded for the fifth
consecutive year as number one in the tertiary
institution category which has made their
efforts worthwhile since 2011.
Chairperson of the USP Lautoka Campus
Blood Drive Upendra Kumar has revealed
that to date they have collected more than 500
pints of blood which have been donated to the
Lautoka hospital blood bank.
Mr Kumar informed that the campus
organizes three blood drives annually but upon
request from the blood bank additional drives
are also organized by the university.
He said the donors are normally students

80 local Fijians will feature prominently in
cinemas around the country and in New Zealand
in the soon to be released movie Feeling Lucky.
The Dreamz Productions New Zealand
produced Hindi film also had 70 percent of its
shooting done in Fiji while the reminder was
done in NZ.
Lead Actor from the movie Rishi Deepak
told CITY STAR News that Fiji has never been
showcased in the manner in which it has been
done in Feeling Lucky.
Deepak revealed that mind blowing
locations from Fiji will be shown throughout
the movie.
He informed that the earlier two movies by
Dreamz Production Urban Turban and Twisted
Families were mainly shot in NZ and little
bit in Fiji but the latest release will be totally
different.
Most part of this movie has been shot in
Fiji so the local community and locations will
be seen in a major way in Feeling Lucky.
With its unique script and performances
by the actors I am very optimistic that movie
lovers in Fiji will give a thumps up to this
movie.
The actor from India added that he was very
amazed and touched by the hospitality shown
by the people of Fiji during their production in
the country.
Meanwhile, apart from Deepak Feeling
Lucky also features prominent local
businessman and singer Jagdish Punja.
The movie has been directed by
DeveshPratap Singh and produced by Dr
Rachael Singh.

WATER is the foundation of life and millions of people
in the developing countries of the world do not have access
to this vital necessity. Yet most people take water for
granted and waste it without paying heed to the problems
faced by the less fortunate.
In the rural areas of our country families still face water
shortages due to the lack of normal piped water supply in
their areas. Surela Devi who lives about eight kilometers
in the interior of Johnson Road, Drasa Lautoka has faced
water problems for the last 37 years of her life after her
marriage.
The tables turned for Devi after she shared her
problems with members of the Soroptimist International
Lautoka club who visited her in December last year with
groceries for Christmas.
According to SI Lautoka President Ranjini Sanjay the
club was determined to assist Devi after they witnessed the
extreme conditions she lived in due to water difficulties in
her area.

season so we decided to approach our donors and sponsors

President
Nadi Chamber of Commerce & Industries
The national budget is no doubt the most
important document that is crucial for any
nations development and we feel, in light of
the natural disasters early this year, we could
not have expected better forecast
On the whole it appears to be fair, positive,
creative and balanced budget with incentives
for growth and investments.
Fiji remains an investor friendly nation with
taxation policies and changes that should
provide further incentives and confidence and
will hopefully make Fiji one of the best PIC to
do business with
Fiji continues to have huge potential, capacity
and resources to match any other country in
developments and growth
The GDP remains relatively strong despite the
natural disasters which is an indication of the
confidence of the private sector, the business
community
We have boundless opportunities (and
countless) in generating economic growth,
particularly in the private sector and this is
quite evident all over the country, despite the
effects of TC Winston. We are aware of the
shortages of raw materials etc for rebuilding,
rehabilitation and relief works but with further
tax incentives as announced, it will certainly
speed up the processes for procurement ..
T C Winston taught us many lessons.
International and National aid came forth
quickly and swiftly coupled by countless
humanitarian assistance that helped the
helpless. Its not over yet but hopefully the
shattered economic activities and lives will be
stronger than before in due course
Nadi in particular is enjoying unprecedented
growth and investments (and spared the wrath
of TC Winston) and we are pleased to see the
hive of activities in the private business sector
who are obviously confident than ever before
with past and current govt.s policies and
decisions.
Support for SMEs
Pleasing to note the various incentives in place
for SMEs including insurance. However for us
is Nadi only a few big companies are able to
insure their businesses and properties against
flooding. JICA study or the project on flood
mitigation is still in progress and nearing
completion that can convince insurance
companies to reconsider insuring businesses in
Nadi Town once again
MSMEs should be taking advantage of various
loans or grants that are available via various
attractive government and commercial loan
agencies. The Credit Guarantee Scheme should
be maintained and I hope more MSMEs
will take advantage of this scheme. NCCI
office will help facilitate anyone interested to
expand their businesses or start afresh. Many
are unaware of this scheme that is supported
by most commercial banks including FDB and
Carpenters Finance. Obviously needs more
public awareness through mass media, internet,
social media etc
Ease of doing business in Fiji needs to be
improved upon and fast tracked. Our ranking
is quite poor and Im sure we can and should
attempt to do lot better. Singapore has been
ranked number 1 for decades, NZ 2nd and Fiji
ranked 88. Surely we can improve upon this
fact by fast tracking on all the requirements
for investments, setting up businesses etc. the
much talked about one stop shop or one
window doesnt seem to be in practice
MSMEs are the real backbone of Fijis private
sector growth, employment and productivity
who account for approx. 12% towards the GDP
or close to 800 million dollars. The setting up
of a National Micro Small Enterprises Council
that will help provide funding, training, collect
data and support as announced will hopefully
further boost and inspire business growth
Infrastructure Investments, improving roads
etc

I think probably, in the last couple of
years before I came, it was happening less with
Fiji. They werent coming to tournaments and
cleaning up, Ryan said.
Maybe Hong Kong was the exception, but
everywhere else they were fairly inconsistent.
I suppose Ive added the basic foundation
stones. Ive got them a lot fitter, eating
correctly, put some framework in with the sort
of discipline and how you behave, team culture.
Technically, I guess an area where Fiji
had room for improvement was their defensive
system. There wasnt really one, and set piece.
Theyre start points.
Defensively, Fiji are now one of the
toughest teams to break down.
That has helped their attack flourish,
something Ryan feels he has also helped to
improve in his time as coach.
Id like to hope that as an attack coach
primarily on the field, Ive added something
to the way theyve attacked with just a bit of
framework that Ive put around the offloading
game.
Theyre still offloading more than any
other team, scoring more points than anyone
else, but hopefully weve got a little bit more
support around that.
Fiji scored 234 more points than any other
side in 2015-16, with 1704 through 10 rounds.
South Africa were next best, with 1470 points
scored, while New Zealand scored nearly 500
fewer points, clocking in at 1241.

He questioned, I dont know why there is
very less interest from people to compete
internationally in marathon races. In Pacific

Chand revealed his training routine that
paved the way for him to reach greater heights
and that brought him stardom.
I did my training in the early hours from

would train from 5pm to 8pm. I had no coach;
I took my own responsibility to keep myself fit.
