This video means a lot to us Indo Fijians Proud to be Fijian

To brothers and sisters of Fiji. Hello and Love from India 🇮🇳 ♥️

Thank you for introducing our tiny group of Islands to your global audience Mark. You're truly a living legend💯🙏👍

My neighbours in Sydney were Fijian Indian when I was a kid. I used to play cricket and soccer vs their kids after school all day. Once in a while, they'd invite me over to their house for dinner. It was amazingly tasty. They were very good people, very kind and very generous and very funny. I used to watch cricket and rugby league at their house and the grandma would swear at the tv if her teams were losing, good fun.

I'm a Fijian Indian person from Nasaouri that currently lives in Sydney. You did us justice hitting up the right spots in sydney and didn't disappoint in Fiji! Big ups to you my man!!

They're Fijians of Indian descent. They have their own Fijian Hindi dialect. Very different when someone from India comes to Viti. But as for their Fijian dialect. You can tell who is from Labasa/Seaqaqa/Taveuni (as in Vanua Levu) and the others here in Viti Levu & Lomaiviti. Those of them who grow up in the villages, whether interiors or coastal. They can speak fluent iTaukei dialects, from that respective vanua. They've never been to India. Even if they travelled to India, whether North or South. It would only be symbolical and sentimental. But nothing substantive. Why? They have lived in Viti their whole lives. Probably 4th generation. They have built homes (not houses), drank the water, toil the land, eat the produce, breathe the fresh air their whole lives. They participate as well in vanua affairs. We have a figure of speech "sa mamaca na nodra laga" which translates to "their feet have dried". It means that when their forefathers disembarked off the ships that brought them in the late 1800s up to early 1900s, their feet would've been wet because they got off the ships. It means that they now belong & identify. They're Fijians. We in Viti appreciate their contribution, both economically & culturally. Even the Vu-ni-vanua (ancestral spirits) have accepted them. There are many statesman as well who are Fijians of Indian descent who have helped developed & mould this Republic of Viti.

Thank you for showing this! My family is Fijian Indian born and raised in America and I try making Fijian Indian recipes on my channel from time to time but nothing compares to the original authentic food you get in Fiji itself! So fresh and tasty! 💕

Ohhh boy... I can leave Trinidad and Tobago and travel to Fiji and just stay and live there ... Similar lifestyle

I’m Indo Fijian… thank you so much for showing our beautiful FIJI to the world.

Thank you, Mark. Our Fiji is a small island with beautiful and big hearted people. This kind of publicity means a lot to us. Hope you enjoyed your stay in Fiji.
