FIJI TRANSPORT COMPANY BUYS CHINESE BUSES
Six buses to serve long routes on Viti Levu

SUVA, Fiji (FijiSUN, Feb. 3, 2011) - Pacific Transport Company Limited received six new buses from China to provide services to the people in Fiji.

The buses are believed to have cost between FJ$160,000 and FJ$170,000 (US$87,000 and US$93,000) each.

These are brand-new buses with all the luxurious features.

It is believed that the buses will be used to service longer routes such as between Suva and Lautoka.

The company management is expected to release more information today.

M experience of Chinese buses is that they don't fit Australians comfortably either, especially regarding leg room.
