May I assure the chiefs and people of Rotuma that the interim Government is committed to further developing Rotuma, Commodore Bainimarama said in response to the traditional ceremonies of welcome the islanders accorded to him and members of the Government delegation on a week-long tour of Rotuma.

He was honoured with the ceremonies and greatly encouraged that the islanders maintained their customs and traditions.

This is an indication that your culture is still intact even though you may have been exposed to external influences," said Commodore Bainimarama.
