FIJI TIMES REACHES Readers in 4 WAYS:
PRINT / ONLINE / SOCIAL / e-NEWS
website: www.fijitimes.net.au
Decorated with the Premierโs Multicultural Media Award in 2016, the Fiji Times is a 96-page (16 Premium Glossy Full Coloured pages, 80 Full Coloured Glossy) colored magazine that showcases political, business and sports news from Fiji as well as India. The news stories are complemented by a variety of articles, features, and advertisements relevant to the Indian, Fijian and Pacific Island communities in Australia.
The number of migrants coming to Australia from the Indian sub-continent and the Pacific Islands has increased dramatically in recent years. The current rate of increase is expected to continue in the coming years. The figures show that more than 2, 00, 000 people from these regions have settled in Australia, especially in Sydney. The Fiji Times is the first magazine to directly target the people from these regions and communities in Australia.
10,000 copies of Fiji Times are being printed on a monthly basis and the readership is growing with each edition. The magazine is offered free of charge. It is distributed at places frequented by people, including spice shops, Indian video-shops, sporting events, social events, selected doctorsโ clinics, Indian/Fijian grocery shops, Indian clothing shops, Pacific Island community groups and more.
Our esteemed magazine is in its 21st year of publication and has carved a separate niche for itself. We also have a brand new website, which is state-of-the-art and updated on a regular basis. The Facebook followers of the magazine are growing by the day and a hi-tech web application for your phones is in the pipeline.
We are sure that in the times to come, we will achieve higher goals and move ahead on the wings of our dreams. We aim at making the Fiji Times a peoplesโ movement, where the concerns of our community are addressed and redressed. Together, we can.
