The Attorney General, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum, has said that Fiji is on the cusp of greatness and could rival or surpass Singapore with higher standards of personal and corporate behaviour.
He said this was the exciting prospect in store for the nation as the economy grows, the Bainimarama Government’s various reforms take root and overall standards are raised.
The AG was speaking to a gathering of senior officials of the various State-Owned Enterprises attending a three-day course in Suva conducted by the Australian Institute of Company Directors.
They are being instructed on their obligations under the revised 2013 Fiji Companies Decree, which requires board members of Public Enterprises to meet higher standards of compliance in carrying out their fiduciary duties.
The AG expressed the Government’s thanks to the visiting team from the Australian Institute of Company Directors for the experience and skills they were bringing to Fiji.
“I’m grateful that the AICD has presented this course to us and we hope to do more in the future,” he concluded.
