Some of the other issues we would also like to know are how this money is spent and if this level of remittances will be maintained for a long time and we may be commissioning a national survey to help us collect this information. One thing that we would definitely like to see is these funds being channelled to investment projects.
It is always good for our future generation if these funds are spent on productive purposes. There has been a lot discussed about the Fiji economy recently at the National Economic Summit. Economic growth has averaged around 2.4 percent over the past 5 years and is expected to average around 2.7 percent in the next 3 years.
