Fiji: Education Assistance

LettersTheFijiTimes/06 de abril de 2016/Por: Tukai Lagonilakeba

Resumen: Los daños ocasionados por el ciclón tropical Winston categoría 5
en Fify aún hoy son de importancia, la cuidad se reconstruye poco a poco
con la ayuda financiera de los países aledaños. En el caso particular de
las escuelas suman 42 las que se encuentran desbastadas por el fenómeno
natural, sin embargo la inversión de $1,6 millones que ha hecho Australia
para reconstruir a 26 de las 42 escuelas ha sido un paso importante para
restablecer la educación en Fiji. La ayuda también ha venido por parte de
organizaciones no gubernamentales internacionales, así como también desde
Indonesia donde se llegó al acuerdo para adoptar una escuela para su
reconstrucción

Noticia original:

It is working, a great many thanks to our PM Voreqe Bainimarama in his
foresight to ask our international development partners and NGOs that they
adopt a Fijian school devastated by the monster Severe TC Winston.

Of special mention is QVS who have benefitted with the Indonesian
Government now finalising arrangements on key issues to adopt and fully
reconstruct this all boys’ boarding school courtesy of their government and
its people.

It is a very noble gesture and it will see our Fijian children benefit many
folds from this opportunity and arrangements, but I have yet to hear a word
of «vina du riki» to our PM and Dr Reddy from the QVS PTA and their former
scholars’ association.

Out of the total 42 primary schools damaged, our mates from the land Down
Under, Australia, have opted to adopt a whopping 26 schools from the
Western and Northern divisions with a budget of $1.6m. Thank you to both
these governments and their lovely people for their generous, humanitarian,
meaningful and the beneficial sacrifices your country has made to rescue
and uplift Fiji’s education sector.
