Fiji eyes Japan funding for infrastructure

Fiji is actively pursuing financial and technical support from Japan to advance its infrastructure development goals. Representatives from Fiji's Ministry of Public Enterprises recently met with a delegation from the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) to explore avenues for collaboration.

The discussions centered on critical sectors such as transport, water, ICT, ports, and waste management. JBIC shared its global experience in financing large-scale infrastructure projects and outlined potential funding mechanisms, including loans, equity participation, and guarantees.

This initiative underscores Fiji's commitment to securing strategic partnerships. The government aims to strengthen public enterprises and attract investments that foster sustainable development outcomes for its citizens, ultimately building more resilient systems for communities across the nation.
