Prepare to advance your clocks one hour ahead of the standard time, because Fiji’s daylight saving period is about to start from October 23.
Minister for Labour, Industrial Relations and Employment, Mr Filipe Bole made the Daylight Saving Order saying this initiative in Fiji has benefitted both the private and public sector over the years.
“People of Fiji are urged to take full advantage of the daylight saving period time because this allows more quality time for recreation and to be with family, while also increasing overall economic activity, work and agricultural productivity,” Mr Bole said.
Members of the public are reminded to change their time to one hour in advance at 2am to 3am on October 23, 2011 and one hour back at 3am to 2am on February 26 next year.
