Fijian Prime Minister officiates at the opening of the new Samoa High Commission's Office in Suva

Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama opened the new Samoan High Commission at Clarke Street in Suva.
“Your new High Commission shows how serious Samoa is about building its friendship with #Fiji and ramping up its regional engagement,” Prime Minister Bainimarama said.
“Fiji is the Pacific hub of trade, travel, telecommunications, and finance, and our capital is the one-stop-shop for all multilateral matters. In one trip to one city, our region’s Leaders can make connections and coordinate engagement with each other and the world.”
Prime Minister Bainimarama stated that a more connected Pacific is a more secure Pacific.
“Samoans began this month by celebrating their 60th Anniversary of Independence. We’re grateful to help you celebrate this evening with another milestone for your diplomatic engagement.”
“I look forward to Samoa’s quick recovery as you prepare to open your borders and normalise international travel this August, as I look forward to continuing to work closely with you.”
The Prime Minister also welcomed Samoa's first female Prime Minister, Hon Fiamē Naomi Mataʻafa to Fiji, and said he is looking forward to working closely with her to advance bilateral relations, and deliver the Blue Pacific agenda.
