The Fiji Australia Business Council (FABC) has elected a new Executive Committee to continue its legacy of enabling key investments and strengthening bilateral partnerships between Fiji and Australia.

The newly-elected Executive Committee includes President Himen Chandra, Vice President Christine Lyons, Vice President Saud Minam, and Treasurer Bruce Sutton. Other Committee members are former President Vera Chute, Mark Halabe, Lisa Apted, Glenis Yee, Rabih Yazbek, Shane Smith, Ajay Raniga, and Tim Joyce. 

This was confirmed Tuesday at the FABC Annual General Meeting (AGM) held at the Australian High Commission in Suva. The event also recognised a record number of 155 Council members.

President Himen Chandra commended former President Vera Chute for being steadfast in her role through critical and unprecedented times.

“With two very strong Vice Presidents at my side together with the rest of the Executive Committee and the support of our members, I am confident that we can lead the Council forward and continue the momentum that we are on.

“We will continue the significant role of providing a key platform for people, opportunities and growth, and we can build on FABC’s past achievements and harness our combined skills as we work with Fiji and Australia for our mutually shared goals,” said Chandra.
