The iTaukei Land Trust Board (TLTB) Management Team visited the President of Fiji, His Excellency Ratu Naiqama Lalabalavu, at the State House.
Led by CEO, Mr. Solomone Nata the team went to update the President on the work TLTB is doing — including improvements in land services and how the Board is working more closely with iTaukei landowners across the different provinces, Tikina, villages and landowning units.
Mr. Nata gave a short presentation on TLTB’s current programs, new business direction, and how they aim to better serve the iTaukei.
President Ratu Naiqama thanked TLTB and its leadership team for their hard work.
“I’m happy to see the progress and the direction you’re going in,” he said. “I really like how you’re now reaching out more to landowners. This shows that TLTB is moving forward.”
The President also talked about the important history of TLTB — reminding everyone that it’s the only Board in Fiji that was originally linked to the British Crown when it was created in 1940.
He said it was sad that the President’s role in the Board was removed by the previous government.
He encouraged TLTB to keep showing strong leadership and to help landowners make better decisions for their land and their future.
“This is a great time for TLTB to grow and become even better,” he added.
“When a place is truly blessed, you will see it in the way people work together, services improve, and partnerships grow. That’s what we’re seeing at TLTB,” he said.
