Tribewanted: Vorovoro

Why would I like to be Chief?

To understand the workings of a Fijian village and then to learn more about their fascinating culture.

What, other than my skills, makes me the right person for the job?

I am already here in Vorovoro and therefore able to see what projects need doing. I am working closely with Paul (the September Chief) so the transition of responsibility and leadership would be a smooth one.

What would I achieve as chief?

The onward progression and momentum of the project to hold and maintain the loving, inspiring resonance of the village.

As chief, I will be given a small pot of money with which to leave my legacy. How will I spend it?

• The reed have arrived for the small bures but I would like to make sure the Grand Bure is patched up before the rainy season arrives.

• A secure storage area needs to be constructed to house the ceremonial costumes and equipment alongside the TW shop merchandise.

• Any money left over would go towards a water tank.
  
  

Tell us something interesting about yourself…

I’m a local, I was born in Labasa. I’ve spent most of my life away from Fiji as I left when I was young.

In one sentence, why should I be chief?

I’m the right man, in the right place, at the right time, to keep the continuation of the tribe’s projects going.
