Close to 3000 people living within the densely populated Suva to Nausori corridor are expected to get employment once international company Mindpearl is fully operational in the country.

This area has an estimated 200,000 people, and Mindpearl's Chief Executive, William Patterson in a press conference today, said they will initially employ 35 people. Mindpearl and Air Pacific have a new business partnership for outsourcing of Air Pacific's reservations, ticket sales, travel queries and booking functions.
