The official name of the institution is "Fiji Police Force", formerly known as "Royal Fiji Police Force". The epithet "Royal" was dropped in 1987, when Fiji was proclaimed a Republic - but the Royal Crown is still used as a crest on the badge. The flag shows a monochrome, simplified version of the badge.
The web site for the Police force is

The Latin motto "Salus populi" means "The
Welfare of the People". It is derived from Cicero's "De Legibus" (On Laws), III,
III, VIII: "Ollis salus populi suprema lex esto" (The welfare of the people
shall be the supreme law). "Salus populi suprema lex esto" is the motto of the
State of Missouri (USA).
