The perennial eyesore and stench emanating from a complex in Martin tar, Nadi, needs to be properly addressed by its owners.
Jetset town Nadi, in particular Martintar, deserves far better, not only for its residents, but all tourists who are enticed to visit our
shores.
During my morning walk just after 6am on Wednesday, December 13, 2023, the stench and flies were disgusting.
I plead with the health department at Nadi Town Council, in collaboration with the department of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS), to take much time educating all tenants in this shopping complex, how to properly dispose of their daily rubbish – garbage, especially the various restaurants.
A concerted effort for Martintar and Nadi’s pride is necessary.
I am reliably informed this problem has been addressed on several occasions with relevant authorities concerned.
It appears no one is keen to keep this shopping complex as clean, neat and tidy as Garden City, Damodar City and Sport City in
Suva.
They are exemplary.
Hosing down footpaths and carparks, twice a week between 2am and 5am, is recommended, as an immediate solution. (Offered free-of charge as a concerned senior citizen).
This embarassment must stop.
