Bula Vinaka Bloggers!
Did you know it's Fijian language week and this year's theme is, "Noqu vosa ai vakadei ni noqu tiko vinaka". Translation, " my language provides stability to my wellbeing". We are celebrating Fijian language week this week from the 3rd to the 10th.
Fiji was officially granted independence on October 10 1970,after 96 years of British colonial rule. On the same day in 1874, the deed of cession was signed by King Seru Epenisa Cakoau to commence British rule in Fiji. Both the cession of control and independence are celebrated among Fijians.
We are celebrating 51 years of independence!
