09/12/2011 (Fiji Broadcasting Corporation Ltd) - Naitasiri could be home to Fiji's first palm oil factory.

This follows a proposal by Malaysian company Bina Puri PV Limited at the Naitasiri Provincial Council Meeting today, showing its interest to set up the factory in the province.

The council has accepted the proposal - saying a development committee will look into it.

The company is willing to work with the province in this major project and they are looking at using around 200,000 acres of land.

Council chairman Ratu Solomone Buaserau says this project will boost the economy of the province and the country as a whole.

Ratu Solomone has also expressed his gratitude towards the Fiji Trade Investment Board for their involvement in the project.
