My Koro Fiji

Managing Director of My Koro Fiji Hayden Ostrom Brown was proud to open Clothes For Good Fiji yesterday in Nabua.

Hayden has been passionate about doing outsourcing differently and wanted to give back to Fiji.

Clothes For Good Fiji has thousands of pre-loved clothes from Australia with all profits going directly to Fijian charities. Fijians can now buy clothes and help contribute to charity.

Mr Ostrom Brown said 'When we started My Koro we didn't want to be like some other foreign investors, paying staff minimum wage and sending profits back offshore. So, we set up My Koro and paid fairer wages, better conditions and incentives for staff. But I wanted to find a way to give back to Fiji - and I know one off donations aren't a game changer. So, I created Clothes For Good, which will be able to consistently raise money for important causes in Fiji'.

If you haven't already, go check out Fiji's first charity store in Nabua, Fiji.

We hope everyone is staying safe and warm during this awful weather. Hopefully it passes with no damage.

Please also remember to look after your animals and keep them warm and safe 💙

TROPICAL CYCLONE MAL CONTINUES TO MOVE TOWARDS THE FIJI GROUP AND IS LIKELY TO FURTHER INTENSIFY

Key Messages:

A Storm Warning is in force for Yasawa and Mamanuca Groups, Western and Southern Viti Levu, Vatulele, Kadavu and nearby smaller islands.
A Gale Warning remains in force for Rotuma, western half of Vanua Levu [Dreketi, Bua to Savusavu], Eastern Viti Levu and Lomaiviti Group.
A Strong Wind Warning remains in force for rest of Fiji.
A Heavy Rain Warning remains in force for the whole Fiji Group.
A Flash Flood Alert is in force for flood prone, small streams and low-lying areas across Viti Levu.

Details

At 3pm today, category 2 Tropical Cyclone (TC) Mal was located about 340 kilometres west-northwest of Yasawa-i-Rara or about 390 kilometres northwest of Nadi.

TC Mal has maximum winds of 55 Knots (100 kilometres per hour), gusting to 75 knots (140 kilometres per hour), increasing to 65 knots (120 kilometres per hour), gusting to 90 knots (170 kilometres per hour) by midnight tonight.

The system is moving southeast at 29 kilometres per hour and approaching the Fiji waters. TC Mal is likely to intensify into a category 3 system as it approaches the Fiji Group tonight.

Around midnight tonight, TC Mal is expected to be located about 220 kilometres west-southwest of Yasawa-i-Rara or about 200 kilometres west-northwest of Nadi.

Gale force winds with speeds of 65 kilometres per hour and gusts up to 90 kilometres per hour is expected from later this afternoon or evening over Yasawa and Mamanuca Groups, and from later this evening or tonight over Western, Northern and Southern Viti Levu, Vatulele, Kadavu and nearby smaller islands.

Winds expected to further increase to storm force with speeds of 95 kilometres per hour and gusts up to 130 kilometres per hour from tonight.

For the western half of Vanua Levu [Dreketi, Bua to Savusavu], Eastern Viti Levu and Lomaiviti Group, expect gale force winds with speeds of 85 kilometres per hour and gusts up to 120 kilometres per hour from this evening or later at night.

For the rest of the Fiji Group, gale force winds expected with speeds of 55 kilometres per hour and gusts up to 80 kilometres per hour from tonight.

Gale force winds can cause significant damage to houses of very light materials and old galvanized iron roofs can be blown off. It is likely to cause disruption in communication networks and power supply due to damaged power lines.

Small trees, most plants and crops are expected to be damaged and downed.

Storm force winds could damage weakly constructed houses and old residential structures. It can also break large trees which may consequently block roads and affect transport routes.

Meanwhile, heavy rain and thunderstorms is expected to continue over most parts of the Fiji group. This will cause localised flooding of low-lying and flood prone areas, localised flooding of minor roads, Iris crossings and bridges which may disrupt traffic flow.

Poor visibility out at sea and on land with increased risk of motor vehicle accidents due to slippery roads.

Mariners and seafearers are advised of increased risk for sea travel for all types of sea crafts due to gale and storm force winds over Fiji Waters.

Also, hazardous breaking waves and coastal inundation of debris is expected along low-lying coastal areas, especially during high tides.

The impact of TC Mal should gradually ease from later tomorrow.
