The government cannot do everything and everyone needs to play their part.
Attorney General and Tourism Minister Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum made these comments in the 2010 Budget Consultative Forum after the Suva City Council Administrator Vijendra Prakash questioned the government what it is doing or planning to do to promote tourism based on the increasing number of cruise liners visiting our shores.
Sayed-Khaiyum said the SCC has not got its act together and it should take action now because a record 60 cruise liners are expected to visit the capital city next year.
Sayed-Khaiyum said a lot can be done but municipal councils like Suva need to urgently take action now.
