Professor Biman Prasad, leader of the National Federation Party (NFP), has underscored the importance of Christmas as an opportunity for families and communities in Fiji to come together, reflect, and reaffirm the values that strengthen the nation. He emphasized that this festive season is characterized by family gatherings, where principles such as care, fairness, and shared responsibility are highlighted.
For the Christian community, the celebration of Christ’s birth serves as a poignant reminder of the virtues of humility, compassion, and service—qualities that Professor Prasad considers essential to Fiji’s cultural identity. These values resonate closely with the NFP’s steadfast advocacy for inclusion, social justice, and equal opportunity.
The holiday period also allows the NFP to solidify its priorities for the future. Professor Prasad pointed out that Christmas is a time for the party to recommit to its mission of fostering unity, inclusivity, and strong leadership. He assured that the NFP would continue to develop policies aimed at bringing people together, restoring trust in institutions, and improving the everyday lives of Fijians.
Looking ahead to the coming year, Professor Prasad expressed his intention to maintain open lines of communication with communities and stakeholders nationwide. He reiterated the NFP’s pledge to nurture a stable, inclusive, and confident Fiji where opportunities are accessible to all, and progress is achieved through cooperation, respect, and accountability.
This uplifting message during the Christmas season highlights the NFP’s commitment to a unified approach for uplifting every Fijian, promoting the potential for stronger community ties and collective advancement in the year ahead. The focus on inclusivity and shared values serves as a hopeful foundation for a promising future for the country.
