Fiji’s Biosecurity Authority executive chair - Xavier Riyaz Khan

Fiji yet to make decision on PNG products' ban

This followed Fiji’s Biosecurity Authority executive chair, Xavier Riyaz Khan, and Fiji’s Trade Commissioner to PNG, Navitalai Tuivuniwai, travelling with a delegation to Port Moresby last month to defuse a looming trade war.

Tuivuniwai told Loop PNG from Fiji that a final decision will be known soon.

“Right now the technical team from the Biosecurity Authority of Fiji are in the process of submitting the final report to government for their endorsement,” Tuivuniwai said.
