The spring of 2003 will mark the 100th Anniversary of the first arrival of South Indians to Fiji from Chennai. To commemorate the occasion, the India Sanmarga Ikya Sangam has set aside a half-acre parcel of land where they plan to build a museum. Founded in 1926, the Sangam runs 26 primary and high schools as well as many Hindu temples in Fiji. Funding for the museum will be sponsored by the National Sangam parent body in conjunction with other branches and Sangam organizations overseas. Those knowledgeable about the India diaspora who might help with the museum are welcome to contact "source" above.
