Communications Fiji Limited (CFL) welcomed the Minister for Policing and Communications, Hon. Ioane Naivalurua, during an official visit to the company’s headquarters.
The visit formed part of the Ministry’s ongoing engagement with stakeholders in Fiji’s communications sector, aimed at strengthening collaboration and understanding the evolving broadcasting landscape.
Hon. Naivalurua acknowledged CFL’s contribution to national development through its extensive radio network, noting that radio remains one of the most accessible and far-reaching platforms for delivering information to communities across Fiji.
“Radio has one of the widest platforms in Fiji, and with that reach comes a responsibility to ensure information shared with the public is accurate, timely, and in the best interest of our communities,” Hon. Naivalurua said.
The Minister highlighted the important role broadcasting plays in shaping national consciousness, strengthening public trust, and promoting positive community outcomes. He encouraged CFL to remain approachable, accessible, and responsive in supporting national awareness initiatives, including messaging on community safety and anti-drug efforts.
CFL General Manager Charles Taylor raised matters relating to the broadcasting operating environment, including the importance of continued engagement and mechanisms to support improved broadcasting services. CFL also shared its organisational values and the various approaches it employs to effectively reach and engage its audiences.
During the visit, Hon. Naivalurua toured the studios of Legend FM, FM96, Gold FM, Radio Sargam, and Navtarang, and thanked CFL staff and radio personalities for their continued contribution to Fiji’s broadcasting sector.
