Fiji Sun’s ‘Letter of the Week’ winner last week, Sukha Singh, felt excited and proud when he was presented with a Parker pen.
The 60-year-old wrote a letter to our Letters to the Editor column about blocked drains along the Labasa Hospital road.
“I feel very happy to win this prize,” Mr Singh said.
“I have been writing letters to the editor for this newspaper for more than 10 years. I write what I see as concerns, issues and hidden truths that need to be revealed.
“I don’t write to put someone down. I write so that positive change and impact takes place. For instance, about the blocked drains the Labasa Hospital, I have been observing it for six months.
“So many talks have been going around Fight the Bite campaign and yet our very own authority has their surroundings clogged up. Something needs to be done.”
Mr Singh is a retired electrician who worked with the Fiji Electricity Authority (FEA).
