Historical Girmit Public Holiday
By the time this issue of your Brisbane Indian Times is circulated, we in Australia would have celebrated many Girmit Anniversary Celebrations in our Cities and Towns, including in many Nations including the Fiji Islands.
Suffice to mention that only this Fiji Government since the Girmit era has paused to really commemorate and afford the long-awaited due credence for the sacrifice our forbearers endured by declaring a Girmit Remembrance Public holiday.
The Rt Hon Fiji Prime Minister of Fiji, Major General (Retired) Sitiveni Rabuka first ever Girmit day speech is share here.
In the next issue of your Brisbane Indian Times, we will share with you his speech which will be delivered on May 18, 2024 in the Deo Family Foundation sponsored Girmit day celebration here in Queensland.
