FIJI SANCTIONS MEETING-THUR JULY 19TH 7PM

NI SA BULA
TO ALL FIJI PEOPLE LIVING IN AUCKLAND
There has been a lot of interests and interpretation on the additional sanctions imposed on Fiji by the New Zealand Government. Due to this, the Fiji Community Association thought it was imperative to obtain clear clarification of the sanctions from the Government on those targeted and the expectations. The Department of Labour has kindly agreed to come and meet the Fiji Community this Thursday at the Pacific Business Trust. The issues will be Immigration, Pacific Access Category, Seasonal Work Scheme etc. The meeting will start at 6.30pm and the hall will be open from 5pm. Supper will be provided. This is open to all Fiji people in Auckland.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could spread the word to our all our Community members. This is a good opportunity to get clarification and enquire on other issues.
Warmest regards
