Our Sincere appreciation is also extended to the private sector and investors for their confidence and support during the past years. Investment Fiji continued to strengthen its role in the facilitation of projects through case based approach with the objective to expedite approvals of projects from the Tier 1 and Tier 2 approving Government Agencies. A total of 257 Projects were registered in 2013 versus 130 projects registered for 2012 with a proposed investment level of $1190m compared to 703m for 2012 and a proposed employment of 4,664 with 3,460 in year The 2013 calendar saw a busy schedule with its promotional role and a number of incoming missions and delegations coming from the USA, China, India, Abu Dhabi, Australia, New Zealand and Korea with interests in the various business sectors being promoted by the Government. Investment Fiji also participated in two outbound missions to PNG and China. Investment Fiji in collaboration with the Ministry of Industry and Trade facilitated a successful two day Trade and Investment Mission to Papua New Guinea in April, The Mission was led by the Prime Minister of Fiji Commodore Josaia Voreqe Bainimarama which included Government and Private Sector Representatives. The Mission entailed a one day Trade and Investment Seminar on the 17th of April which saw over 200 participants and One on One Meetings on the 18th of April. An exhibition displaying some of Fiji s finest export products was held concurrently to the two day event. The Mission was executed jointly with the Prime Minister s State visit and the Fiji Delegation was treated to a welcome dinner at the PNG Parliament House on Monday 15th April, The business meeting housed more than 70 business representatives from Papua New Guinea. The one day event focused on building networks and establishing business relationships between Fiji and PNG private sector stakeholders. Investment Fiji in partnership with the Ministry of Industry and Trade participated at the 2nd China-Pacific Island Countries Economic Development & Cooperation Forum. The Forum was held in Guangzhou, China from the 7-11 November. The Forum was hosted by the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People s Republic of China. The China International Green Innovative Products & Technologies Show 2013 was held simultaneously with the Forum. The Fiji contingent of exhibitors was allocated by the Chinese Ministry of Commerce and Foreign Affairs with four booths which allowed as many products from Fiji to be displayed. This Forum gave Fiji the opportunity to raise critical trade related concerns with the Government of People s Republic of China. This opportunity was provided during the Bilateral meeting on 7th November, followed by the Ministerial Meeting on the afternoon of 8th November. Fiji s participation to the Forum aimed to promote and strengthen political and economic relations between Fiji and China. Fiji had the opportunity to solidify South to South Cooperation and create growth through trade and investment opportunities. The Board is confident that 2014 will be another year of accomplishments and is optimistic that with the support of Government and the private sector, Investment Fiji will continue to be a dynamic force in the creation of economic wealth in Fiji.
