The celebrations this past week epitomized the spirit of the year-long commemoration of our 60 Years of Independence with the theme ‘to sail with faith’ says Prime Minister Fiame Naomi Mata’afa at the closing of festivities for the month of September.
The Country, saw for the first time, the 60 Years of Independence celebration taken to the Big Island of Savaii, and Cabinet held its first official meeting in Salelologa.
“Once again, I acknowledge with appreciation the support, participation and contribution of our people, districts and villages, churches, the private sector and business community, government Ministries and Corporations in this week’s events.
The milestones of this year’s celebrations such as the first national commemoration of the independence anniversary in Savaii, will be remembered. This would not have been possible without everyone’s support and participation.
While today marks the completion of the programme this week, the stock of activities in our Calendar, which includes the Miss Samoa Pageant tomorrow night shall continue until May 2023. We wish all contestants the very best.
Let us continue to sail, stride and proceed with faith – knowing that with God, all things are possible,” said Prime Minister Fiame.
