What happened
Landowners in Nadi have challenged the government to provide substantial funding for the proposed city declaration. They state that significant financial commitment is needed to address infrastructure gaps and flooding in Nadi. A representative from the Nadi Town Landowning Unit and Vanua o Nakovacake said the landowners' long-term support for the town's growth justifies this financial backing.
