Fiji improves
Fiji’s all-items industrial production index rose 63 per cent in the third quarter of this year, reflecting the nation’s recovery after the first military coup in May. The index, reported by the Bureau of Statistics, stood at 151.6 on September 30 compared with 93.0 three months earlier — based on an average of 100.0 for the four quarters of 1977. The rise was largely attributable to the resumption of sugar production which halted after the May coup because of a growers’ protest, the bureau said.
