Fiji Government
Formerly a British colony, Fiji gained its independence peacefully in 1970. However, in 1987, Fiji experienced its first military coup which came as a shock to the islanders of this tranquil paradise. After the unrest of earlier years, Fiji is on the road to re-building a nation on a path of strong democratic principles that will remove unjust policies of the past which were responsible for widespread corruption and drug associated criminal activity.
The current administration is stamping out deep-rooted corruption, malpractices and major drug syndicates who were using Fiji as a staging point for shipping large quantities of illicit drugs overseas.
This move has seen the emergence of many Fijian towns and cities becoming crime-free ensuring tourists enjoy a safe and memorable stay in these beautiful islands.
