Lautoka city-wide network begins
On Saturday 21st August the first city-wide meeting of members of informal settlements in Lautoka was held in Navutu community. Representatives of three other squatter communites in Lautoka came, plus members of Navutu, and a decision was made through discussion of the idea of a city-wide network that another meeting would be held on Tuesday afternoon, and that all who were there would spread the word to other communities they are in contact with. So from this small start, developing a city-wide network has begun.
