Tuesday (12th December)was a day to remember for 400 odd residents of Solevu village on Malolo Island, 25 km off Nadi .For the last 20 years the villagers had ferried their drinking water from the mainland on barges. Water from the local wells is not fit for drinking and the rainy season lasts only for 3 months.
Rotary foundation funded drilling of 4 boreholes while the villagers themselves provided the pipe system.Approximately 100,000 L/ day water will be supplied to the 7 communities , one school and the health center.
