The Bua Provincial Council has endorsed the need for a border control system or mini police post at the Nabouwalu Jetty in Fiji due to concerns about drug transportation and trade through the country’s ports.
Council Representative Tomasi Robakanakadvu argues that drugs can enter the country undetected without a security system at the Nabouwalu port.
