Fiji deputy PM takes delegation to NZ

From Morning Report, 6:19 am on 20 March 2023

Fiji's deputy prime minister is leading an 80-member trade delegation in New Zealand this week. 

It's the largest deputation the Pacific Island country has sent - and it's the first since the new government was elected last December.

The trip to Aotearoa follows our minister of foreign affairs' visit to Fiji last week, where Nanaia Mahuta announced $20m to help Fiji build its climate resilience, and a further $10m for social and economic development.

New Zealand-Fiji Business Council president Chandar Sen spoke to Kim Hill.
