Fijians of Indian descent living in New Zealand are opposing moves by the government to classify them as Asians and not Pacific Islanders.
Over 15,000 Fijians of Indian descent are currently residing in New Zealand and want the government’s classification of them as Asians to be corrected.
Fiji Girmit Foundation of New Zealand chairman Krish Naidu told Radio New Zealand that many of their members had never been to India nor had any links or connection with the motherland.
He said young Fijian-Indians had strong roots to Fiji and they wanted to continue to proudly identify that link.
