HEALTH Ministry permanent secretary Dr James Fong believes many people working in the ministry sympathised with the Rural and Maritime Development Minister Sakiasi Ditoka’s comments questioning the construction of the $30 million Keyasi Sub-divisional Hospital under the FijiFirst administration. However, he said civil servants “work with whatever policy the government of the day rolls out”.

That’s the big story on the front page of The Fiji Times’ edition for Thursday, June 1.
