THE JEWISH AND KOSHER COMMUNITY OF FIJI:
Nearly all Jews in Fiji live in Suva, the capital. Jewish
settlement in Fiji can be traced back to the arrival from Australia
of 20 year old Henry Marks in 1881. Marks laid the foundation of
what became one of the most extensive commercial enterprises in The
Western Pacific. Marks was later joined by Jews from India and
elsewhere in The Middle East and The Orient. Until very recently,
there was no organized Jewish life. However, this changed with the
creation of a communal organization called The Fiji Jewish
Association. Religious life has been confined to a communal seder
organized by The Israeli Embassy and attended by 50 to 60 people.
