reclaiming our heritage ❤️ In a live video yesterday, celebrating the 200-year-old rituals being accorded to the Tui Levuka, a follower commented; "this is witchcraft".

Call it witchcraft or archaic, but we are grateful to have preserved our heritage and culture, despite 96 years under British rule. Mind you this is not counting the years before Fiji was annexed to Great Britain in 1874, as urbanization in Levuka began as early as the 1820s - by colonial pioneers.

The meticulous planning and logistics for the traditional installation ceremonies, paid off, as this auspicious occasion doubled up as a worldwide reunion in the old capital. It was both an emotional and joyous time.

This week-long ceremony would surely have taken its toll on our physical well-being, but the "peace of mind" it brings, is enormous!

Knowing that we, the grassroots people of Tikina Levuka, have another vessel to voice our concerns about regaining the balance of sustainable and harmonious island living, is a comfort in itself.

We pray that Na Turaga na Tui Levuka will possess the charisma and wisdom to rule over his domain with empathy, and efficiency.

Vinaka vakalevu.

The world is running out of food and we are the food source of the future 🥰

"Farming: A Path Out of Poverty

Meet Mariana Vikatoria, a resilient 64-year-old farmer from Naiviivi village in Qamea. Despite modest beginnings, she embraced farming as her livelihood after school. Settling in Vakativa Village, Mariana diligently tends to Mataqali land, cultivating yaqona, dalo, cassava, and fruit trees.

Selling her produce along the Labasa-Savusavu Highway, Mariana earns $90 to $150 daily, enabling her to expand her home and start a canteen. Despite challenges like farm theft, Mariana remains steadfast, advocating for youth involvement in farming. With plans to revive their copra business, she encourages others to embrace farming for sustenance and security. "
