NEW CABINET or "Nouvo Kabinen" (new toilet)?
This week, our globe-trotting, book-writing, highly decorated Honorary Doctor and President of Seychelles (James Alix Michel aka JAM) revealed the names of the new candidates in his Government.
While many of the names were already known, the Seychellois people were stunned at some of the announcements. The most controversial was of course the appointment of Mitcy Larue as the Minister of Health and we are quite sure that Madame Gamatis must be wondering when she will become Minister of Hydro-Carbon. Surely she qualifies too.
Alain St. Ange has been rewarded for his hard work, but more so for his sucking-up to Michel, while Rolph Payet is probably the most deserving of them all since he actually earned his Doctorate Degree by attending University (hear that James).
Christian Lionnet is another shock as he is neither competent nor qualified, and his speech on SBC 2 mights ago was appalling. Studying for a couple of years in Communist China must be rewarding as Idith Alexander, another unqualified person has landed a cabinet post. Must be great to be a Party Lepep card holder.
As for our ex-Central Bank of Seychelles Governor Pierre Laporte, he will now have to take off his Capitalist hat and put on one of those new Socialist Michel-Morgan styled cap in order to cater to James Michel's welfare state. Forget Milton Friendman and Economics Mr. Laporte. Focus instead on Cuba (Castro), Rene & Michel, North Korea, Stalin and Lenin, Chavez, Mugabe and all those other incredible successful communist economies and those great leaders. Maybe you can ask Mukesh Valabhji, Francis ChangLeng and Leopold Payet to give you some tips on how to become rich, or at least how to empty the coffers of the country. After all, you are no longer running a bank, but you are now in charge of the Treasury. So spend, spend and spend like there is no tomorrow, and get ready for the Assembly to request another 2 or 3 supplementary budgets before 2012 is over.
Marie-Louise the Shrieking Lady of the House has now been rewarded with an ambassador post in the USA. Only God and James Michel would know what this woman will do for Seychelles while she stuffs her face with McDonalds burgers in the USA, but White House and Obama here we come and the red designer dresses will now have to be bought from Macy's in New York. The "Potters" are already packing and they can only see green dollar bills and the land of opportunity ahead. Beats the hell out of that Beau Vallon slum now doesn't it? Now Marie-Antoinette Rose the new Leader of Government Business (what is that exactly?) must be chomping at the bits to start imposing her rude, obnoxious style into the National Assembly. Look out big Herminie, you have competition.
Poor Conrad Benoiton. They have found another role for him in the hot Sepec seat. The man does change jobs faster than a bullet train, but he need not worry. After all Conrad, James the Great Leader is the Minister of Hydro-Carbon, so you are in good hands. But change your chair and spray the office though, as Captain Adam and his dog might still be haunting the halls of the new oil building for years to come. And look out for Mr. Belle who throws Romanesque parties at La Misere. Just as James Mancham was warned of Albert Rene's plot, the good Captain Adam was warned but did not heed the warning. Traitors amongst the midst. Oh Brutus...
Shamlaye and Athanasius also off to some magic land out there to represent Seychelles as ambassadors. By the way, anyone knows what happened to Siva our great international ambassador?
Veronique Laporte the Bus Lady and Joel Morgan's side-babe is now moving to Health. Good for her as she has done a good job at SPTC. Let us hope that Mitcy lets Laporte run the show while Mitcy pampers herself a-la-Athanasius at the Aarti Chambers spa. Erna had an open account there and spent many hours each day in total relaxation and massage-land as per her own doctor's recommendations. Don't forget the hair and nails now.
And we now have an "Ambassador of Climate Change" in Ronny Jumeau our happy, gay ex-Minister who is enjoying the big apple of New York City and rubbing shoulders with Bank Ki Moon. I guess Ronny has no clue how much hot air there is coming out of State House these days and this is probably contributing to the global climate change. He will soon know when Madame Potter lands in Washington.
And for the final master stroke, the wife of our good Sepec man, Jacqueline Moustache-Belle has been given a second chance, probably due to hubby's spying eyes and whispers to State House. I guess a huge salary, nice office with plush leather chair, nothing to do for months on end is a great reward. Just tell PUC to string a few more lights at night so we do not get mugged my dear. And no worries about who will pay for all of this luxury. Pierre Laporte will find a way.
We will not comment any further and will allow you to write with your own thoughts of this "restructuring". But one thing is clear. More Seychellois doctors and nurses will be packing their bags and emigrating as fast as they can. And since we now have several new Ministries, more leather chairs, expensive vehicles, concubines, girlfriends will have to be bought so Minister Laporte or the "Door Minister" should ask for a supplementary budget as soon as possible. Bankruptcy? What bankruptcy? Smaller Government? Not under James Michel.
God bless Seychelles.

1 – 200 of 484 Newer› Newest»James Michel is an idiot for having appointed Mitcy Larue as a Minister. This is a joke as she is neither qualified to lead nor does she have the brains to be a Minister, especially when the Health Department is in such disarray from Erna Athanasius' mismanagement. Many of the other appointments are purely political and it shows us once again that James Michel is not a leader but a fool.
This new cabinet seems to have come down on the country like a massive depression. The only people who are happy are the new ministers and their groupies. Even some of the "old" ministers who have hung on to their job look noticeably unhappy and their face and voice betray their attempts to remain loyal.
It is the biggest and most expensive cabinet in the country's history, but it is also the most derided. Michel has set this country up for more failure. He is out of touch with reality.
There was so much for Today in Seychelles to write about this new cabinet the day after it was announced. Instead it chose to regurgitate State House propaganda. Of course, by then the news was stale and depressing and there was no reason to reprint State House press release to compound matters. STAR published the names just after 6pm. Facebook was awash with the news. Needless to add, it was also on SBC rado and television news that evening.
State House made Today in Seychelles look like Yesterday in Seychelles and its fearful editor was reduced to complaining publicly in her own paper about the shabby treatment, with characteristic weasel words. By the time Today received the State House press release, the news had been on STAR for more than 30 minutes.
Today's coverage (a bland restatement of a government press release) was disappointing, as the news was yesterday's news by then. It could have chosen to do something different instead (because by then every reader knew the names of the new ministers and their photos and did not need a reminder) by explaining to its readers how bad this cabinet was. But that would have been too gutsy for Marc Hoareau and Nicole Tirant-Gherardi.
Today's coverage was even inaccurate in a key respect. It said that there were more women in the cabinet. The photos showed 2 women out of 6 new ministers. The fact is that the percentage of women in the cabinet stayed roughly at 25%. The additional woman (up from 2 to 3) was offset by the appointment of 3 men of dubious quality out of 4 new ministers in an enlarged cabinet. Today was wrong to repeat State House propaganda which wrongly implied that women would have a bigger influence in the enlarged cabinet. Sending Mitcy Larue to Seychelles Hospital may well make many people want that Ramadoss had been appointed Minister for Health instead.
What about Nichole's bleating that State House had treated her shabbily and lamentation that it is a poor reward for Today's "independence" ? The surprising thing is that she was surprised at such treatment. She seems to forget that Parti Lepep is still in one-party state dictatorship mode where the official media are everything. Non-official media are tolerated, provided they are not overtly too critical of the government, but are not taken seriously.
Today says that it received the press release at 6.38pm. SBC announced the new cabinet in its 6pm bulletin. This means it received the announcement a few hours earlier, as SBC's news preparation is notoriously sluggish. Seychelles Nation got the news in time for its Thursday edition. As Nation "goes to bed", as the hacks say when their day's work is done, shortly after mid-day, it must have received the news around noon.
On Friday, rather than feeding us stale news and waxing widespread anger at these incredible ministerial appointments, Today should have led with the news that the new cabinet has been universally derided and sought explanation for these ministerial appointments. After all, we will pay for their salaries and perks and their incompetence. It is Today's job to ask difficult questions on our behalf. Perhaps, next time, State House would have made sure Today in Seychelles got its press releases at the same time as the state-run media to avoid adverse coverage by a vexed editor. What happened to a woman's scorned and all that ? Let Michel know that Today is not Parti Lepep's history book.
So, James Michel is to be the guest of honour at the Mauritian independence anniversary celebrations. State House is also leaking that Michel will get a gong from Mauritius.
Our "dalons" are patronising us. Parti Lepep (including under its previous guises as SPUP and SPPF) have given them many reasons to patronise us.
The invitation to be guest of honour and the award of the Grand Commander of the Star and Key of the Indian Ocean is in fact a sign that the Mauritians have despaired of us and can't wait any longer to give the award to a deserving and democratic Seychellois head of state.
On 2 previous occasions, Mauritius gave the award to dictator-busting leaders of Madagascar and the Maldives. It is strange that this time the award goes to a terrorist, traitor and dictator himself. Our dalons are sending us the message that they have waited long enough for Seychellois to kick out their dictators. But with Michel "re-elected" last year, the Dalons have given up any hope of Seychelles turning its back on dictatorship. Regional realpolitics can't wait for us any longer. Michel will do well to remember this as he indulges in this award.
Mauritius gave the award to Marc Ravalomanana in 2007 while he was president of Madagascar, having brought the long-running dictatorship in that country to an end. He was deposed 2 years later by sympathisers of the old dictatorship.
The other foreign leader to receive the award is Mohammed Nasheed last year, after he too brought the long-running dictatorship in the Maldives to an end. He was deposed by the old dictatorship earlier this year.
The decision to give the award to Michel is therefore highly curious, unless Mauritius thinks it can't wait any longer for Seychelles to come up with its own Ravalomanana/Rasheed and Michel was feeling slighted at his omission. You know how Michel loves a foreign award.
While Michel attends official functions at the independence anniversary celebrations, he will notice that the Mauritian leader of the opposition and other opposition leaders will be absent as they have decided to boycott these functions in a dispute with the government over electoral reforms. It should sound familiar to Michel, except that in Seychelles he has invented his own opposition. The Mauritian people are not as passive as the Seychellois, and don't they know it.
Michel will be finding time to meet the leader of the opposition. In democratic Mauritius, visiting foreign leaders are encouraged to meet the real opposition. In Seychelles, Parti Lepep discourages such contacts. European Union leaders are required by EU protocol to visit the opposition too on their foreign visits, but incur the wrath of Parti Lepep in Seychelles. But the irony will be lost on Michel who is thicker than two planks while he exchanges pleasantries with Paul Berrenger.
Danny Faure still goes by the grand title of Vice-President and Minister for Finance and Trade. The other bits of his empire are too insignificant to mention. But not for much longer. Next week he will be plain Vice President and minister for matters that were too insignificant to mention in his title.
Perhaps that explains the long face in the photo in this weekend's Nation.
His wings were getting too big for James Michel's liking and they have been clipped. That's his reward for creating the David Pierre's PDM scam opposition to contest the national assembly elections.
Long faces, trembling voices and nervous twitches. That's what we can expect from those in the cabinet who held on to their job by the skin of their teeth.
But Alain St Ange will be grinning for the whole cabinet as he goes back to the murderous party that he once supported.

If he knows how to speak mandarin and cantonese Shame Laye might be safe in BEIJING as Seychelles ambasador.
Lagalle will give way ?
Mauritians demonstration for a new republic ? We can join with our Mauritian dalons for the Indian Ocean Spring.
Does lizye LAGALLE i fann dan banbou parey SHAMLAYE?
Guys, this is all good and well.
Michel is cleaning up the Rene -Faure gang surrounding him.
Danny is left alone as a symbol for now. Word is, he will be dumped soon and appointed Ambassador to UN and all of South America.
Michel has appointed some incompetents, but then , what do you expect from James Michel?
Sesel Pou Seselwa!
Michel does not know how to spot talented people. Or he could say he has limited choice with Parti Lepep as the talented people are in the opposition. Let Parti Lepep fight among themselves. They have spilled enough blood of innocent Seychellois. I do not care if they start spilling their own blood.
To all the above commentatteur....errhhhhh commentators....blaggeurs... TIKLO i dir zot aret Kouyon zot!! akoz Michel has appointed all concerned because he can.....I repeat....he can.
You are better off removing your kanson and underwear and go point your derriere where vann-suette pe tape and use your middle finger and scrap the kaka-sek from around your dirty trou fes because your above blogs are just that...crap.
He is also destroying Beau Vallon beach because he can.
Michel will continue on his winning ways....and he will peak when he receives his me-da-lion from his Mauritian Counterpart.
Can the above person please tell us in what way Beau Vallon is being destroyed???? and forever hold your piss.....errhhh peace!!.
TIKLO ki la
I shall let you die an ignorant.
Listen, and listen well you embecile ki croire i en grand savant de pa en avant.... erosion is a world wide problem and in Australia at the moment namely Queensland, NSW and Victoria are experiencing flood and in Western Australia, Heat Waves like never experienced since records were kept since 1807.
For you to come on here and insult a duly elected President of the Seychelles by the majority of Seychellois/e, is an affront to all Seychellois. You should be ashamed of yourself. And by the way you Oxy-Moron, your other grand savant Mr. Knowall by the name of Gerard Payet is blaming the "dredging between Mahe and Silhouette" for the King Tides and bigger than normal waves pounding Beau Vallon Beach. Denis Chang Seng is giving you bann Kouyons sound advice from hos comments.
I have always seen erosion first hand taking place with my own eyes first as long as I can remember.
In the final analysis, all you so called X-perts should engage your bloody brains before putting your mouths into gear. Ti Kreole Le O i fer ou salame.
Like I said, I shall let you die an ignorant.
Is Danny Faure on the way out ? How long can he endure the humiliation that Michel has heaped on him ?
Danny is in it to win it in 2016.
By the way you better change your battery in your SPACE-MAKER before it dies down so you can witness the swearing in. Yes YOU!! I KNOW YOU!!
In the meantime avoid staying close to a micro wave!
Not if James Michel has anything to do with it ! Albert Rene will be dead by then.
Danny Faure pegged for Ambassador by Michel. Will replace Marie Lise in USA after 2 years.
The main reason why SNP will not join with you is because they think you are incompetent fools and they will not give any time of day.
So now everyone else is incompetent ironic.
I hope when you said minister Jumeau is gay you meant happy. If you meant something else then you should look closer to home. Probably mr Jumeau does not harass young man in his employment.
According to the Mauritian press, james Michel is arriving in Mauritius with a 10-person delegation, not the 5 that State House says. Who are the others ? Has Michel gone to mauritius with 5 body guards ? Does he think Rene/Faure might kill him there ?
While Michel spends lavishly on overseas travel, the country has no money to maintain its coastline and is losing beaches that are important to the tourism industry.
It is time this Parti Lepep government got its priorities right and Michel should rein in his folie de grandeur. After 35 years in power, he thinks he can do anything and Parti Lepep supporters will continue to vote for him.
Having wasted our money on overseas travel, he will then need to go and beg off Khalifa, as if this country has no self-respect and national pride.
Hasn't Michel just appointed an Ambassador for Climate Change ? That should solve all problems.
So, Danny Faure was absent at the IMF press conference today. Is he brooding somewhere ? What happened to "travay dir pour Sesel" ? He is still Minister for Finance until the National Assembly has rubber-stamped his replacement on Tuesday and his replacement has sworn in after Michel returns from another overseas jaunt.
At least he should have shown some maturity, put on a brave face and do the job that he is still getting paid to do before he goes on to prepare himself for his imminent "depar volonter".
As the Parti Lepep's infighting intensifies, the country's IMF-reform program is taking second place. Principal Secretary Ahmed Afif walked out on the government, without working his notice "to join the private sector". Danny Faure is now boycotting his successor and not supporting him.
What will IMF make of all of this ? Le Dem will probably keep quiet, knowing that he is dealing with a dictatorship that does not like criticisms. Had it been Europe, IMF would have no problems criticising the political instability created by James Michel and the lack of firm political leadership at the Ministry of Finance. The lack of political suppoprt from the Vice President and supposedly president-in-waiting (unless Michel gives him his 'depar volonter' before that) is bound to unsettle the new Minister of Finance and the whole ministry. If, as Michel apparently lied to the nation in his state of the nation address, Danny Faure was in full agreement with the ministerial changes, Faure should have had no problems attending this IMF/Ministry of Finance press conference in a display of cabinet solidarity. Instead, cracks in the cabinet and Parti Lepep were laid bare. This cabinet reshuffle is a bigger disaster than I first thought.
The reshuffle as in poker, is intended to unseat a group of players, namely the Rene-Faure branch of PL.
They will all become Ambassadors or seat warmers in a disgraceful National Assembly.
Michel is cleaning the Rene clan up one by one, and they do not have the balls to say or do otherwise.
It is nice to see Michel betraying Albert Rene. It should remind him of his own betrayal that sowed the seeds for this country's destruction.
IMF says the government should do something about SEPEC's loss-making tankers. Weren't these tankers supposed to rake in millions of dollars ? Why did we go into the tanker business when we have no oil to transport ?
Commonwealth team is in town to study health service reforms. Study requested by Michel. As they arrive in the country, the commonwealth team will throw its hands up in the air at the the cabinet reshuffle and the new regime at health. Their job has been made much harder, as diplomatic niceties will stop them from blaming the government for the mess that the health service is in.
Hissene Habre: Belgian extradition case opens at ICJ
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-17337668
Belgium wants to try Hissen Habre for crimes between 1982 and 1990 in Chad.
Alleged victims filed complaints under Belgium's universal jurisdiction law, which allows the country's judges to prosecute human rights offences committed anywhere in the world.
Gill, you should use Belgian law to get Albert Rene tried there.
SFP is already on this. But it will not be just Rene who is tried. I think Michel will fit the bill quiet nicely.
Seselwa Unite!
Sesel Pou Seselwa!

I think you will find Belgian national law gives immunity from prosecution to heads of state.
The Mauritians are commenting that Michel is in the country for just over 24 hours. He is obviously keen to get back to swear in his new incompetent ministers.
Michel gets his gong tomorrow morning.
http://www.lexpress.mu/story/35691-decores-de-la-republique-presence-manifeste-de-personnalites-politiques.html
The mauritians must have been desperate to find someone to give away their gong to this year. They have honoured a man of violence who overthrew a democratically elected government and is keeping Seychelles under the thumb of dictatorship.
What about Albert Rene ? Does he not too deserve to be "honoured" by the mauritians ?

Good point, maybe they will ask St. Ange to kill someone to be part of the crowd.
Faure demise is tied to an event involving some missing.........
He has got his gong around his neck. Unfortunately he is an albatross around our necks.

Wasn't St Ange in SPUP and SPPF ? Nasty things were done at the time by these people.
FAR should be honored by RAMGOOLAm for deliberately allowing our land to loose part of its territory (DIEGO GARCIA)when he unilaterally refused the Brits and Amis to set up a military base there.Furthermore,FAR unillateral decision has made hundreds of Seychellois families who were inhabitance on the island displaced poeple,who were forced on ships as slave and forcefully trade to Mauritius.Since then they are concidered second class citizens there,in fact there called by the Mauritian as "Dezarte".This independence Pp reigme has never taken any actions to repatricate them there have been forgotten .
Haivng said that,since the butcher is in Mauritius he should ahve orgainized a meeting eith them.but also negociate for thr return of our territory given to them illegally to the brits.Geographical ,historicly it is clear that the island belongs to us.
.Time to reclaim our terrirtory Michel instead of going on holiday in Mauritius.
Jeanne D'Arc
If there is one man! Yes one man! Who single-handedly fought for the return of our Islands it was FAR! Remember this name you imbecile! France Albert Rene!
Your fcuking uncle as Chief Minister sold us out and gave away our islands for a bribe to the British as BIOT and Diego Carcia to the Americans without sympathy of the Chagossians! You bloody well know that FAR was not in office when this was done! It was FAR that fought for the rest of our islands and a condition of our independence but unfortunately as the Americans had bribed your uncle and Mauritius he couldn’t do anything about Diego Garcia!
You son of a bitch, malediksyon bat ou manman in tro bez enzandre ek ou sanmen ou lalang ek ou troufes! Malediksyon bann Chagocian i lo tou bann ki annan disan Mancham sanmem ou tonton i parey waya-waya e ou ou pou vinn parey li!

Is allowing us to lost Diego Garcia and have part of our people forced to leave their homeland and traded to Mauritius a gain or a lost Pissedoff?It is not becuase of FAR unilateral action that has resulted of oue people displaced to Muaritius?When would PP repatriate them back to their homeland?There are being treated as foreigners is Muaritius and living in Ghettos,as the poorest of the poor in a foreign land.
Get our Territory and people back to their Homeland Pp?
Jeanne DÂrc
Once more you idiot Diego belonged to Mauritius and has nothing to do with Seychelles so take any grievences you have with them - they sold out their people and had them repatriated and squandered their repatriation money!
They can also go to the UK because they are all UK citizens!
Do you actually know what the fcuk you talk about or are you just talking for the sake of flushing your mouth?

SBC is still keeping mum about James Michel's latest gong. Perhaps while Michel is in Mauritius, Danny Faure is giving orders to the hapless Antoine Onezime.
Michel's sojourn in Mauritius has not been without controversy. The curse of Parti Lepep strikes again.
A mauritian was arrested for the car accident here at home on the day Michel left.
Over in Mauritius, the official lunch held by the Mauritian President for James Michel was hit by lateness and boycott by some from Ramgoolam's Labour Party.
Michel was supposed to get his gong at a ceremony before the lunch. But this ceremony had to be postponed to after the lunch which was itself delayed badly.
Michel left Mauritius just after 4pm this afternoon and was seen off at the airport by Ramgoolam. The Chief Guest is leaving the independence celebrations even before they have ended.
He is skipping the controversial Garden Party being held tonight by the President of Mauritius who used to be the leader of the Mouvement Socialist Mauritien now in opposition.
Many key figures of Ramgoolam's ruling Labour Party, including ministers, are boycotting the Garden Party for political reasons. They are accusing the president of meddling in party politics.
Quite clearly Michel hopped down to Mauritius just to collect his gong to add to his list of "honours". The Chief Guest at the independence anniversary celebrations spent just over 24 hours in Mauritius and had no time to meet ordinary Mauritians on what was supposed to be a state visit. The Mauritians should be a little bit more choosy in whom they give their gongs to.

Take the history book and at into it.Diego Garica is part of Seychelles territory,and the inhabitant who were froced out and shipped to Muaritius were Seychellois(speaking our Creole not that of Muaritian creole)and they were never part of Mauritius:Rene the communist who think we could resist USA milatry might in order to favoured USSR is responsible.We need our land back and our sisiters and brothers now reguees or stateless in Muaritius back to their homeland.

Personal i think this is achieveable due to historical,geogrphical and the illegal way it was gifted to Muaritius.If we would have an efective goverenmnt ,with visions we could entice the AMIS and have them support our legitimate demand(by for example offering them the possibility of keeping their base a decade longer)and so forth.Pp does not have the brain how to do it.This torritory has lots of economic improtance to our land.For instance,we could have been used by fishing ships as base,erc..etc .. i would stop hwere for in won't open the eyes of donkeys to the likes of Pp communists.

With the demotion of Danny Faure, Solda Rene have come under attack and have taken to STAR to mount a fight back.
Explain how Diego Garcia was Seychelles' and how it was gifted to Mauritius, how the Americans came to possess it. Explain it as it was but do not try to re-write history!
Keep this in mind Gill; we know our history. For a fabrike like you to come here for a brief period of time and to proclaim yourself a rasin then to try and redefine our history is the most unforgivable sin imaginable and it won't go without consequences.
Bear this in mind!
Solda Rene
Pissed aka Solda Rene-
Name change will not help your hopeless cause.
BRITISH INDIAN OCEAN TERRITORY (BIOT) TO RE-"FRESH" your spent recollection, included Seychelles, Mauritius, Diego Garcia, as a colony of the Crown.
Get a life!
You've explained nothing because as usual you know fcuk all!
Solda Rene
Arrhhhh wee Seigneur......
Zann Dork does not know the History of Diego Garcia... quel maleur, quel gran maleur pour le Dork.
Question One: Who had the lease on Diego Garcia?...I'll give you a hind.....his three masted Isle of Farquar boat has been high and dry o bor pon Les Mamelles.
How much did he sold his lease to the British?.
How many millions of pounds sterling did the British give to the Mauritian Goverment of relocate the Chagosians?.
What did the British get from the Americans for giving them the 99 year lease for their Base?.
And last but not least, how come the Chagosians ended up in the slums of Port-Louis?.
And dork, just remember the name FAR - popularly refered to as Ti France as the man and Legend in his own Lifetime who demanded the return of the three outlying Islands that the British wanted to keep as the British Indian Ocean Territories. One of these Island was Aldabra and we are proud to have it World Heritage Listed for Mankind.
To Gill the Dork and his Dorklettes, let's see if you have what it takes in enlightening us with the above questions or keep on sucking an egg.
And Gill the Ignorant, do you still blame the "dredging" for Anse L'anmouche and Beau Vallon's high watermark erosions?. Solman Kouyon ou bez Kouyon Bougla.
solda rene..encore enn fois ...bous ou troufes Silvou ple. One thing we know for sure is that you killed our people and that one day you will pay...This what we the people of Seychelles know a lot about... worry about that U asshole.
The curse of Parti Lepep strikes Mauritius. The day after James Michel left Mauritius as the Chief Guest at the independence anniversary celebrations, Mauritius is plunged into a political crisis.
The parliament has been suspended.
No wonder Ramgoolam has decorated James Michel. He must envy the de facto one-party state in Seychelles and the one-party national assembly with a fake opposition. Life is so much easier for the ruling party when no opposition is allowed.
SBC has put our minds at rest. It has found out from James Michel why he got a gong from Mauritius, despite being there for just over 24 hours.
The gong was for Seychelles-Mauritius friendship and for Michel's work in developing Seychelles. Laughable on both counts. Obviously the Dalons ignored the coup d'état and Michel's role in the one-party state which undermines the reason given for the gong. Let's face it. Mauritius was having problems getting a Chief Guest this year with problems in both Maldives and Madagascar where democracy is being held back by Michel's kindred souls.
But Michel would have given up the Mauritian gong for one from the Queen. Despite spending some 4 days kicking his heels in London, he returned gong-less.
We must also understand that the butcher never traveled the world and his little crooked life excpet going to Tanzania to llearned how to use a Ak 47.Being President gives him the opportunity to spend some more Tax payers going around begging the world and psending some people's dollars on new suit PRADA,new expensive shoes GUCCI a,new rolex,some pampers for Mitcy,some expensive purfums DIOR for Mathilda etc...But no increase of salary for employees in order that they can have more cash in their hands to consum thus help our stagnated economy revive.

Alain St Ange on Today's front page. Looks like he never left SPPF.
Will Danny Faure ever get his smile back ? He looked terrible at the State House ceremony.
And what about James Michel reading that statement in English ? That was terrible too. Just as terrible as Lionnet reading that speech at Les Mamelles.
Seychelles cabinet in 2012 under James Michel
Over 50% white faces
Just 2 black faces
Less than 25% women
Mostly white and light skinned men
Doesn't represent me at all
Then fuck off to black Africa where you will be well and truly represented with a bullet up your arse you black cunt!
hahahahahaha.... way way way we come from Africa..... Ti Frans ki ou. li selman y al lekol Langleter. Lapo son....
Intelligence and race wise, the cabinet does not represent me one bit.
Can't accuse SNP of being a party of grand blancs now, given Michel's preference for light skin and white skin.
They want to rfom a govment to unit all of Somali African pepol. maybe SNP sould go there wit you and they can form a govnment were you will be wellre presented. you racist full. blutigen Wichser.

In terms of racial balance and representation at the top, this country has made no progress, if you exclude gorilla Herminie who doesn't represent me either.
It is a shame that this cabinet shows that black people with curly hair has made no progress to get to the top in the last 35 years. Yet they are the majority that vote for SPUP/SPPF/PARTI LEPEP. Michel takes their support for granted as he dishes out top jobs to grand blancs and light skinned people in bucket loads including to traitors from the opposition.
David Pierre goes to State House and the non-opposition leader ! Agreed to meet once a month in forum.
Ronnie Jumeau is putting a brave face on his demotion from UN ambassador to Climate Change ambassador. The higher they are, the harder they fall. I wish Danny Faure would do the same. I can't take these long faces any longer.
He seems to have been relegated to attending nocturnal ceremonies and presumably does not have to get out of bed before 4pm when everyone else is going home from work. The long face is understandable but for our sake he should brighten the SBC evening news and Seychelles Nation with a forced smile, as he invariably poses with a group of people receiving certificate of one sort or another.
Remember Olsen Vidot ? Understandable if you don't. He hardly created a ripple as Principal Secretary for Community Development, until he walked out on the government 2 weeks ago as new ministers were about to be announced.
He was going into the private sector, as all resignees tell us when they do not want to air their beef with Michel in public.
His silence has been rewarded. He has been appointed CEO of Parti Lepep -- hardly the budding businessman, shaker and mover, in the private sector.
Oh the lies they tell when they resign in a fit of petty annoyance.
Still have not heard of Ahmed Afif who too resigned in a huff. It must be worth a lot for Michel to keep him quiet and sweet before he starts to spill the beans.
New cabinet of ministers sworn in. Michel gets courtesy call from leader of the opposition at State House. When will this make-believe government end ?
Gill you missed being the opposition leader by a donkey's arse's hair's breadth!
Peut etre a la prochain election!
Gill is not interested in being window dressing for PL.
Gill wants democracy delivered.
Hence why Gill is not in secret meetings with PL like SNP NDP to fix the rules of the game to take PDM place.
Seselwa Unite!

I notice that Mathilda Twomey has extended her congratulations to Alain St Ange -- publicly on Facebook. Is that not a blatant interference in party politics, given that St Ange has defected from opposition to Parti Lepep and his appointment is politically controversial ?
A decent and real judge would have kept her congratulations private. But Twomey has quite clearly lost it and can't think straight. Personal friendships are more important than upholding the impartiality and integrity of the Court of Appeal.
Her Facebook activities are bringing her office as judge into disrepute. She should have adjusted these activities when she became a judge, albeit she turned out to be not a very good judge, as her role in the PDM case and her attempts to abuse her position tro try to get Weekly editor Volcere summarily judged and locked up for daring to question her relationship with Parti Lepep.
I sort of enjoyed the lecture that David Pierre gave to Herminie on how to spread butter. He was out of his depth as he got tied up on the theory of butter spreading thickness. He was rambling and Herminie looked perplexed. Across the room facing him directly, Ti Rose too had no idea what Kok Maron was on about.
He once called James Michel a coward but today he was at State House promising respect for Michel and seeking respect for "the office of the leader of the opposition". Michel must have wondered whether Mathilda thought she was doing him a favour with that judgement. Pierre is a national joke. SBC is giving him generous air time to convince us that he is indeed a joke.
zot pas nomme mon sa famme laba island avec son taba sal.
Amad Affif e conn un kantity cakesouse kin passe dan government.sa bougue inn vinn un risar over night.The thing is when he was at the seychelles polytechnic he was cut by a grass whipsniper while cutting grass as part of the poly extra duties.His wounds around his knee would be re-open if he start talking of what has been going on.He has only 1 option tir lecore and find a job with IMF.
Signs of things to come ? Or wishful thinking.
Despite a busy day on Thursday and a full complement of state-run media factotums at his beck and call, Michel does not make the headline in Seychelles Nation front page. That must seem strange to the publicity-hogging president, especially after a busy day manufacturing news for SBC and Nation. Heads could roll at Nation. These events at State House are stage-managed precisely to get front page news in Nation (and dare I say Today) and top item in the news bulletin on SBC. That's why they are held in the morning. It would never make it on time on slow coach SBC if it was held after noon. Since when has news of more Chinese largesse trumped news of the president farting at State House ?
Adam takes centre stage and much to the annoyance of Danny Faure, I should think. But Danny Boy, fear not. Adam will burn out soon. He is hardly recognisable from the day he was appointed a minister a few years ago because of his looks.
Michel is relegated to "in the news" with a miniature photo on the front page, with further details on page 2 for those that read more than Nation's front page to get a flavour of the day's propaganda. Faced with a photo of Michel and Jumeau or Michel and Pierre, Nation did the expected and went for the former. Sometimes, using Pierre to damage the opposition by exaggerating his importance must take second place to the promotion of Parti Lepep lackeys.
Happily, it is easier to get around the Seychelles – at least between the core islands. Air Seychelles operates about 15 flights per day between Mahé and Praslin, this 27-mile hop taking 15 minutes for US$215 (£143 return). The Cat Cocos catamaran service (00 248 4 324 843; catcocos .com) plies the same route in one hour, with four there-and-back sailings each day from €86 return (or €112 return if you opt to stay on to La Digue). Inter Island Ferry Services (00 248 4 232 329; seychelles.net/iif) spans the three-mile gap between Praslin and La Digue, the 15-minute jaunt costing €20 return.

The Parti Lepep government is introducing more paperwork and form filling for arriving visitors. Nice touch.
Even nicer touch for SBC to seek the views of the tourist trade to this OBVIOUS inconvenience to tourists. Perhaps SBC did not expect any contrary views from SHTA CEO Raymond St Ange, nephew of traitor Alain St Ange. SBC was not disappointed. It was just what the doctor ordered for this evening's news -- another St Ange singing this government's praises and wannabe minister. In fact, tonight we will get sick seeing the St Ange family dominate the news.
Raymond St Ange wholeheartedly agreed with the government new tourist-annoying initiative. He praised the government.
Raymond St Ange was supposed to defend tourists' interests. Instead he defended his uncle's political interests and position as minister, by not rocking the boat and not defending tourists against more bureaucracy.
Raymond St Ange has shown that he now has vested interests to defend. He cannot criticise government policies. In short, he is incompetent for that job. SHTA should act. But don't expect Louis D'Offay to act, even if his tourists on expensive holidays in his hotel will feel aggrieved. Customs is even threatening to send visitors back to Health desk or immigration desk if the form handed in to customs officers at the exit are incomplete.
is it me, or are all the ministers overweight? look at the pics of pressy and the ministers, with their guts hanging over their belts...looks like they are all losing the battle of the bulge!..it pays well and obviously, they eat well, to be a minister these days!!!!
if jenpa was picked as a minister for his (fading) looks and bald patch...we are all screwed!
I think we are, well and truly.
The jungle tourists arrival being thrown at us by Pp can only convince PP Itself.And it is not masaged statistics that would change facts on the grounds.And the facts are no single five stars hotels ever reached full occupancy,many guesthouses are operating at their lowest while St Ange and Michel preached about an explosion in arrival.
There was a few fake arrival concocted for us by PP and Chinese Ambassador by flying to our shores a group of long servered communists members for a free holiday offered probably free of charge by PP regime to do two things-1)As thanks to China for keeping us alfoat and secondly to create the fake toursists arrival presented to us by PP thugs.Hundreds of flight by Airseychelles to Dubai do not means increase in arrival ,for most of the time these flights by AIRSEY is being done with half full occupancy of seat,nor does Arabs ever been the best and most important travellers in toursim history.Many toursists will not waste their time to fly via DuBAI just becuase the Suadi's goverenmnt think travellers must be forced to its DUTY_FREE.There are also good and intereting destinations though do not provide or have the natural beauty of our country .but enough beautifull and price worth to opt than Seychelles.
Pp governemnt is also as always putting the blame of European crisis,which is partly true ,but not an convincing excuse to explain the decline in arrival.For one must keep in mind that the biggset tourism industry or the most traveeld europeans are the Geramn who represent three third of Euroean travellers ,and Pp must know that Geramny is doing very good economically and geramn are still travelling but to destination that offer them a good price and possibilites to access their.
In a word,our tourisms indsutry is in a mess as all the other parts of our economy,it is not IMF nor PP who would tell us the contary.
Therefore, to fix the mess we would need rapid change of government,else we won^t be able to limit the free fall our economy is heading to under PP.

Don't imitate me by writing more than 10 words at a time. I am entertaining, you are boring, Jeanne d'Arc.
jenpa..you are 35 years old!! you are balding and have man boobs!! you used to to be an olympic swimmer for christ sakes.do something about it!
its not like you have to work hard for your ministerial salary and (tax fee) perks...hit the gym, and not the JAM!
Michel did not do him any favours appointing him a minister at such a young age, at at time when he had a like for young and good looking people to appoint to cabinet. I have always thought that Michel was copying Sarkozy who was appointing young beauties to the French cabinet. He has since got rid of them.
Michel is very bad at sacking under-performing ministers.
He procrastinated for about one year over sacking ministers. In the end he found the courage to let go of just two -- Shamlaye and Athanasius.
Jean Paul Adam must be the oldest 35-year-old in the country, if you see what I mean. Soon Michel will have more hair than he does. Those tight shirts are exposing his man boobs. This is the man who goes abroad to represent Seychelles as Foreign Minister. Give me strength !
With Adam growing older so fast at 35, Michel could not rely on him to give the image of a youthful cabinet. He then had to appoint Idith Alexander, aged 34, who even at that age must be too old for the cradle-snatching Michel.
How come using Gurkhas as policemen and their swearing was never announced or shown on SBC ?
Is that what Michel means by TRANSPARENCY ?
We want gurkas out from our country as fast as possible.We are a soveriegn and independent country not a colony.Any swearing would be illegal for they are not Seychellois and have nothing to do here.And what are the going to swear in on-That they would bravely died for their Country(seychelles) to defend it?
Time clear up our country from all those illegal foreigners and to do that we need regime change.

Rony Jumeau the gay ambassador for climate change will soon broadcast the weather condition, forcast cyclone, earthquakes etc. He will also advise gay's around the world how to protect themselves when the climate changes. You have a nice job Mr Gay ambassador.
Good! At least Ronnie's position will be useful to both you and Isaaq!
An Ambaasaor for climate change for what when we already have an Environemnt minister doing nothing.
Climate change in dictatorship is nothing less than a way to divert attention of the dictaotrs crimes and a way to beg for money under the guise of fighting climate change.And the unconvenienct truth is that dictators present a great threat than climate change to the survival of our country.Deforestation that is taking place under the butcher will cause increase in temperature through the emmmision of greenhouse gases,and it is not A special Ambassoador who will stop it.
Climate change debate has been honey in the mouth of forked tonuge of dictators in Africa:It has provided them with the perfect foil to avoid detection and accoutability for their corruption and mismanagement of their societies and a conveneient opportunity to divert attention fron their criminal state enterprises.

Air Seychelles new CEO says it is in the business to make money on the domestic service. He says it is more expensive to travel by taxi on Mahe than to travel on HM to Praslin. With taxi fares so high, I think he has a point. After 35 years, SPUP/SPPF/PArti Lepep has fucked this country well and truly.
Who will start pirate air services to Praslin to give us a choice to the high priced Air Seychelles ?
The CEO must not find scapegoats to justify Airsey astronomic pirce.IT is true that taxis are also expensive like anything in Seychelles even a SEYBREW has an astronomic price but the different is that taxis are many and in competition with each others while AIRSEY monopolize the Air service.Having said that if Taxis are also expensive is becuase fuels are high,there are too many taxis and they are not bailed out by tax payers money,they pay taxes,for the service of their cars etc...In other words taxis drivers have a financial durben on thei revenues that AirSEY does not have or it may have, but all are covered or paid for by goverenment.Morevoer,AIRSEY CEO should have pointed out that the astronomic salar,.pensio and other perks he is pocketing probably in POUND STERLING participate in the high cost of AIRSEY and it has negative consequences on a small Airline like ours.And the short trips they making to DUBAI would not bring foreign exchange the country needs unless Pp manipulate facts to give us a fake success or profits which would probably be so as for the jungle economic growth and fake tourism arrival they want us to accept.
Jeanne D'Ârc
Did James Michel really need Etihad to tell him that David Savy had badly managed Air Seychelles ?
David Savy's face and posture at the Etihad/Air Seychelles press conference said it all.
Michel lacked the guts to sack Savy, Albert Rene's stepson.
http://www.thenational.ae/thenationalconversation/industry-insights/aviation/etihad-flies-in-to-save-seychelles
And no investigation or audit made after David Savy left to really see how bad the company was in.No question to David Savy fo why he spent 30 million rupees of tax payers money to built AirSEY a new office when the company needed money for it operation.We could also asked was all the 30 millions invested in this building?What there a control of checks and balances or audit to see how or if the price paid to construct the building was really worth the amount of money given to Savy?
Michel of course did not need Khalfia to tell him that for he was told already years before by ERNST AND YOUNG REPORT that he never made public for the fact that he knew the company was already in a mess back then.But as you put it,th butcher cannot undertake anything against the familiy memebers of his master FAR ,he has to cover up the mess and pretend we were making lots of profits while we were already bankrutped.
Jeanne D'Arc
40% of the building now belongs to Etihad and Khalifa.
Ramgoolam is finding that his association with James Michel has brought a curse on his government while Michel happily runs a de facto one-party state.
Ramgoolam suspended the Mauritian parliament to prevent the opposition tabling a vote of no confidence.
Now Ramgoolam says he will seek a vote of confidence in parliament when parliament resumes. It is touch and go, given the defections that he has faced.
No such problems for Michel with his one-party national assembly.
Hi There, Ref to Ronny Jumeau met this guy a few years back, He was a minister and believed was married with Gale Talma had a project in the farming business the guy asked me to meet him secretly for an affair. Met him at a secret location where he wanted to suck my dick. I ask him to pay me SR500 which he did, then he said that I should give him doggy i said no give me another SR500 he refused. I then phone Gale and inform her about it. i believed that's their separation. Mr Gay Ambassador I will expose you to the world, and to the Seychellois Community at large .My friends in NY are watching all of your movement, and we know your club. Shame on you, you are a disgusting "Malrose"
So, Alain St Ange gets promoted to Minister for Tourism, yet continues to do the work of CEO of STB.
St Ange should instead find solution to bring tourists to our shores.And gosd knows if there is a lot to do and thar DUBAI was and is not the world biggest provider of toursists but Europe.As i said,compare charter flights flying to Maldives weekly with Seychelles.14 weekly flgihts from Europe to Maldives.From Europe to Seychelles Panorama,a flight from russia,and three from Dubai often full with Seychellois coming from shopping not tourists our tourism industry need to keep our economy afloat.I could have taken other example and all other cases they also doing best than us including CUBA.
Jeanne D'Arc
To the R500 prostitute.
Expose what? Allegedly he paid you for sex, you are a male prostitute, he is Bi-sexual everyone knows that. Go get a life.
Bi-sexual or a hypocrite ? A homosexual hiding behind a marriage ?
Are Alain St Ange's press releases on eTurbo News written specifically for THICKO JAMES MICHEL ?
St Ange says February has been the best month for tourist arrivals ever ? Not surprising he congratulates himself for that and says the carnival has attracted visitors.
No doubt the carnival has attracted a handful more tourists who would perhaps have come at some other time.
The February figures include participants in the carnival and many were here at the invitation of STB and not our average tourists.
Furthermore, the biggest omission in St Ange press release is the COSTA ALLEGRA incident and those on board who accepted the company's compensation of one or two weeks holiday in Seychelles.
It is clear that the press releases are mere propaganda. This is why while STB will tell us that tourists were arriving in Seychelles in record-breaking numbers, the fact will remain that the tourist industry is on its knees.
The Minister for Tourism should tell us what is the tourist arrival number for February by excluding Costa Allegra tourists and participants in the Carnival. It is that number that will tell us whether the number of tourists is going up and whether the carnival did indeed attract additional tourists.
Stop DECEIVING us ! But feel free to continue deceiving JAMES MICHEL. He is the stupid and gullible one.
Mauritian leader of the opposition (not one put there by the government), Paul Berrenger, met James Michel while the latter was Chief Guest at the 44th independence anniversary celebrations.
They discussed the IMF economic reform programme, the 3 women in a cabinet of 13 and Michel's state of the nation address.
They then moved to Maldives and Madagascar to discuss the political situation -- i.e. elected governments being overthrown by former dictators.
Why did they not discuss the political situation in Seychelles ? Was that a touchy subject best avoided to avoid taking Michel to task ? It is telling that Berrenger felt able to discuss politics in Maldives and Madagascar and not Seychelles with James Michel. He obviously does not think highly of the political developments in Seychelles under James Michel.
Berrenger must have been well aware that the opposition boycotted the national assembly elections and the "leader of the opposition in the national assembly" was put there by Michel's handpicked and cowed judges.
Berrenger must have thought one of the world's biggest hypocrites was talking to him about Maldives and Madagascar while Michel has refused to democratise Seychelles since the one-party state dictatorship was supposed to have ended.
Was Michel intelligent enough to wonder why Berrenger avoided discussing the political situation in Seychelles, while happily indulging in that of Madagascar and Maldives ? I doubt it.
Given that he had to indulge a hypocrite in the interests of diplomacy, Berrenger must have wished Michel had not bothered to meet the leader of the opposition in Mauritius. He must have wished that Ramgoolam had done what Michel does and had discouraged visiting heads of state from meeting the real opposition.
To the R500 prostitute pilon!
You are what is commonly known as a rent boy. A male prostitute, a pilon and yet you want to expose Jumeau as gay! You are a male who accepted money for sexual favours from another person of the same gender. You are furious because he wouldn’t give you another 500 rupees you cheap whore!
In order to expose him we will need to have your name so that we have proof to confront him with!
Who are you faggot?
St Ange consider all those foreigners the ogvernemnt invited as guests to participate in the CARNIVAL protential arrival.Secondly,the problem with St Ange allegation is that it contradicts businessmen in this industry.I think if he would ask Mr DÔffay ,fro instance,of how occupancy is doing at L'archipel hotel he will find out that occupancy is at free fall.If St Ange consider that a charter flight from China organized by Chinese Ambassador to Seychelles for Communists members who never had holidays and were gifted their first trip abroad as recognition for the devotion to the PP,we can not consider that a tourist arrival.A gang of GURKAS brought illegally here to act a police officers in our place and to abuse our people rights,is not tourist arrival St Ange.Three flights daily from DUBAI with mostly Seychellois coming from shopping in DUBAI is not touirst arrival St Ange.Somali Pirates arrested by foreign navies and handed to us,are not tourist arrival St Ange.ImportTION OF CHEAP LABOURS FROM iNDIA,pAKISTAN TO TAKE sEYCHELLOIS JOBS ARE NOT TOUIRSTS ARRIVAL sT Anbge.Going on SBC to self-porclaim that we have the best touirsts arrival for decades does not increase real arrival St Ange.Finally ,What does St Ange has as plan to fix the mess done by PP to our tourism industry that he represents and helping to destroy by fake strategy base of illusion?

The faggot can be none other than Ti johnny the German gay porn star a.k.a. Jean Paul Isaaq. He post these pictures and many more he has in his collection because these are his masterbation tools!
If you or anyone else wants to talk about the immorality of same gender relationship then you ISAAQ is a fucking hypocrite because your uncles were not just gays they were whores as well!
Issaq tell us the one where one of your uncles who was a cook at a certain hotel in Beau Vallon in the seventies worked. When one pay day he challenged another cook to shag him and when the other cook was shagging him he slipped his hand in his back pocked and stole his pay packet. He never got his money back. That was the story going around in Victoria then from that arrogant thief and colleague of his who worked in the same kitchen! So Isaaq shut the fuck up about morality!
And you Gill should do the same! You were caught in bed with another man by your fiancé, you guys are criminals in Guam so shut the fuck up and let a clean and clear conscience person talk about morality!

Gills says:
Gays are on a quest for the holy “G”rail (the G spot)
Rumour has it that because Adam had pissed him off for having to partake les fruit defendu when they was off limits or because he happened to have a wicked sense of humour like when he plays with these lightening bolts and incinerate some naughty people and floods some other naughty ones or just for laughs get whales to swallow poor Jonas, god put men’s G spots in our rectum and since then Isaaq and all his male family members and Gill has been on a quest to spot it so to speak!
And this short story comes straight from the horse’s arse….errr mouth Totof himself!
What's that got to do with Jean Paul Adam ?
Kouyon ou pa konn lir? He was talking about the biblical Adam., Eve's husband!
If you say so.
Easy mistake to mistake to associate Jean Paul Adam with that kind of discussion.
With all ministers put on light duties with a cabinet of record-breaking and unlucky 13, they will be treading on each other's toes as they try to find ways to kill ministerial time and compete for exposure on SBC.
It is happening already.
Which minister commented for the government on the announcement of a new flight by Kenya Airways ? It wasn't the minister for air transport, Joel Morgan. It was the SBC-microphone-hugging Alain St Ange. Presumably that's because most of our tourists come in by air, unless they are on a Costa Cruises ship broken down in the Indian Ocean. So, the Kenya Airways announcement became a tourism issue not an air transportation issue for this lopsided government.
We can expect St Ange to start commenting on foreign affairs, as all tourists come from foreign countries. By which time we can also expect fisticuffs among under-employed cabinet ministers as they move in on each other's turf to keep busy.
One more thing !
With a picture of a doolally-looking Mancham, Nation tells us that Mancham will be returning to Seychelles via Abu Dhabi on his next trip overseas.
Talk about stating the blooming obvious. Don't we all have to make the obligatory stop in Abu Dhabi so we can avail ourselves of the opportunity to bow to Sheikh Khalifa and thank him for his largesse and for rescuing the Parti Lepep's government from its self-inflicted and never-ending misfortunes.
DON'T CHANGE THE SUBJECT ISAAQ. DO YOU WANT US TO KEEP DIGGING?
Dig as deep as you want.
Visitor arrivals from UK, France and Italy -- traditional markets -- down. Arrivals from Germany up, but that is explained by the big contingent from Dusseldorf to take part in the Carnival. Without the carnival contingent, visitor arrivals from Europe is down so far this year.
Arrivals for first two months 2012 from main markets France, Italy and UK were down; growth driven by Germany and emerging ones from Russia, China and Middle East.
This is called massaging the figures to earn kudos or ministerial positions.
On Tourism-
STB spent on over 200 free airline tickets to stage last Carnival.
So these people were not genuine arrivals.
Notting Hill Team is paid like entertainers to walk our streets half naked. So they are not Arrival Visitors in the same sense. Actually, under the PL Communist laws, they should have obtained a GOP.
Unfortunately STB has spent too much time promoting James Michel and not Tourism in a genuine manner, without just gimmicks.
For this, we will all suffer for years to come.
Estimated down turn this year is -30,000 tourist, if the existing trends continue.
Unless private sector is given the hand to handle Tourism, I fear Tourism will be an empty promise because PL screwed it up royally.
IMF projections and concerns, confirms this.

Can anyone tell me what Danny Faure is doing in Calais France and how much this trip is costing the taxpayers of Seychelles? Being in Calais to watch fibre cable being loaded onto a ship is another waste of money and goes to show that this Government has its priorities totally screwed up. This is the same as sending all these women to Germany to launch our tankers that are now tanking our economy.
When you are bankrupt and you cannot afford to feed your people,stay home and plant bananas Danny. Even Fidel Castro could have taught you the art of communism.
STOP SPENDING OUR MONEY.
St. Ange is learning the art of faking from the butcher.Fake arrival figures massage by fake arrival statistic.I am sure he took in to account the COSTA`S survival as arrival too.
Pp communists cannot manage money,for it is not theirs.Thus it is high time that we asked Interantional donors to bring Pp to account on how all those millions are being used.And,one can already assumed due to PP illetracy in ecnomy that the millions are being rob and misused by those crooks.Just an example.40 millions EUROS would be given to PP to pormoteenvironemtal prtoection,to date we see nothing that we can say PP is spending the money rightfully.last week Michel went on Perseverance Island to plant ten trees and no one would beleive that ten trees costed millions,while for instance,Pp could through the Forestry division organized a gang of workers(new employment)to prepare and plant or reintroduce trees on all those burned mountains on Praslin that would money used rightly and would no only bring back themountais to their original forms but provide hundreds of jobs for decades for Praslinois.
When you have a regime who spend like a drunken sailor without audits and accountability and that for four decades ,they have become so accustum that they have got use of it and think it is normal.Uncontrolled spending on fictious projects like Eden Island with no clear economic strategy and selling the people patrimony to sponsor tits grandious projects whixch was meant to show us how great our dear leader is.How,the botteom has fallen out and we must beg the owrld for help and must live on charity which PP find normal and even call it a success.
Nothing throw to us by Pp seem to be the solution to fix the mess,the one thing that we can say Pp regime has achieved is namely that " PP communists have equally make us poor"
Time for regime change!

Gill writes: "Unless private sector is given the hand to handle Tourism, I fear Tourism will be an empty promise because PL screwed it up royally."
Deja vu, Gill. Or, rather, deja heard.
The last time the government bought this line from the trade, SHTA sent them Alain St Ange from the private sector.
Alain St Ange has gone native and deserted the trade and the private sector. Both SHTA and PL are screwing us "royally". Who in the trade now wants to be a minister ? Raymond St Ange ?
You could deja heard,but since you have herad and have no solution may be you should act now.YES,without those professionals and hotle owners,guesthous owners and all the rest directly or indirectly invloved in the tourism industry there will be no geniune and effective solution to fix this important industry which is in fact the main industry.Fourty years of PP governemnt has destroyed this once promising industry to dust.Pp communists do not have any plan of how to proceed and their stubbornness not to consult others who know the indsutry and have experience and proposal to made would further endanger this important industry thus product more ecnomic durben to the country and many other busineses directly depend on the tourism industry.
There is nothing abnormal in what Chris says,in fact in a modern siociety any government would have consult ,listen,follow porposition,ideas,plans porposed by experts and those in the industry rather than oppose a fantasy strategy based on illusion instead of well-studied plan and strategy.
Who the trade wants to be a minister?WEll,to have the best answer AGAIN here, pp could consult the experts in the industry:I think they know each other best to provide names or porpose who can best be the minister to save our mian industry from the PP free fall.
There are many Seychellois qualified,able,experience in this indsutry-one of them is MR DÔffay himself he HAS BEEN in the business for deCADES,another could be DERECK SAVY an ex-hotel manager also qualified from US university in marketing,and i can continue on and on with names.But again the problem is not the lack of professionals but the refusal by PP crooks to bring in professionals outside the Pp party and those who are not party members.Like for our Health ministry,there are people qualified for th post but since they are no active members of the communist party theyare not given the opportunity.For minister of economy we could have had the Seychellois expert with expereince working now as advicer at the world Bank so axeample.You see,it is not experts that are missing but failed policies undertake by PP communists.
Pp^s motto is "if you not a party member regardless of how highly qualified one is you will never be called for high office ,preferable unqualified like MITCY as long as you from the party.
Time for regime change!

SHTA has lost all credibility after the Alain St Ange saga.
Does SHTA really think that they should send a Louis d'Offay protege to run the STB's marketing budget for the trade, then become STB CEO and then Parti Lepep government minister in just 2 years ?
Louis D'Offay should stick to running L'Archipel.

No they are not visitors but workers for the occasion ,WHY?their fly tickets were paid by our money,dito to thier accomodation and all other expenses.Real visitors are those woh pay their trips,thier hotels and come over to our shores as visitors not as our govwernment paid Carnival dancers.You see ,how ignorant PP crooks are and why our tourism industry will continue thr free fall under PP administration,?You cannot even made the different betwwen a visitors and a foreigner paid by our people tax money to come and dance on our streets;then how could we expect betteremnt in the tourism industry when you cannot even the different?You probably beleive that Somalis pirates handed over to us after being arrested by Ofriegn navies in our EEZ are also arrival?
You see why we need change,and why Pp would never be able to deliver for they ignorance and unqualified like the butcher and his comcubin Mitcy.

There has been no declaration officially that Notting Hill is working for GOS.

Deja Vu-
I am sorry St. Ange has gone "A-Wall" and joined the rank and file of the PL. It is a let down to many people but he is happy of course, judging from the plethora of e turbo press releases.
All this does not mean St. Ange is useless to Tourism. It means he is simply highly opportunistic by nature.
Packaged well, that can be a plus for Seychelles.
As for being useful, we should all note that no one in PL Communist government understands anything about Tourism except for taking the golden eggs it produced once upon a time. That time is gone my friend.
So wake up to reality.
Can St. Ange turn things around? I personally doubt it from what I know.
But the Trade today has no other option as long as PL control Tourism.
It is either sink over night, or sink slowly over 2 years. This is the option PL has offered Seychelles Tourism Industry.
Hence my call that PL privatise the management of Tourism fully today, and take it out of the realm of politics once and for all in order that we can salvage this industry that has gone from 85% of GDP once upon a time to 26% of GDP today.
As St. Ange plays politics with Tourism, it will suffer. Why? Because to every action, there will be an equal opposite reaction.
As Tourism is consigned to gimmicks, such as e turbo promoting James Michel, and Carnival that spends marketing budget on 200 airline tickets for a year with clear ulterior motives to promote Michel and St. Ange at the event, and no implementation of a Master Plan and no annual national business plan, it will fail as so chartered.
Why? Because PL Communists do not know how to run business, and they only know how to rape business, use opportunities it brings for political gain.
Once Michel accepts this simple point, we can move on.
In the meantime, I fear, you as well, Deja Vu, must be prepared for a Tourism Industry IMPLOSION unless the course set by Michel and St. Ange is altered.
I am opening up a pig farm and a pumpkin patch soon, just in case PL Communist do not listen again, as usual!
Then I will sell them the pumkins, which they will buy, because they do not know how to plant anything well.

BREAKING NEWS
Faure has Resigned
Gill found dead on STAR. Badly decomposed body found among pornographic photos.
That's the end of SFP.
Faure has no job to do. He has been constructively dismissed by Michel.
Michel couldn't get rid of him in the last cabinet reshuffle because Faure is the "elected" vice president.
Faure will resign. He is openly talking about his resignation letter that apparently has been written.
Michel says that Faure has been stripped of his ministerial duties so that Faure can give more support to him. There is so much bad blood between them and they are hardly on speaking terms, that working closely together is impossible. Michel can't get rid of Faure without new elections. He is now making Faure's life impossible so that Faure will resign.
FAURE according to Pp polite buro ways of picking up the next dictator should be the next party leader and already and only chosen follower of the Butcher.Could it be that FUARE disaggreed with the butcher policies of excessive and illegal sell out and looking as future Pp dictator to radically change things that makes the butcher fear that change he might propose will make him (the butcher vulnerable and the probabilty of seeing justice in front of his door steps?What one can say is that the Butcher and Fuare do not seem to share the same opiions on how to proceed. they are stuck in the delimma of whether to continued with the one -aprty dictatorship or refroms to democratize the country.The interanl fight has began so let them massacred each other.

Anybody, Officials from the International community following events and development at political level will not fail to note at Star Blog and Seychelles Freedom Party Blog the debacle of the "sex issues".
We have linked both Blog to international request we have made for International consultant/expertise to support/drive the 21,000 - 25,000 exile/refugee issues including - the most important Catholic International organisation - their respective work in this field the past 60 years or more.
Five years ago such issues, article would not have been published - why now.
There is the need/requirement for those from the International community to grasp and understand the depth of the anger and fustration - given events sarrounding Sechelles Seychelles regional and international politic, those who study and understand indepth its working by international standard and working very grave - yet not assasination, munity etc - the need to understand how Seychelles politic work. Yet the responsible high parties - meaning Seychelles government and its Ministers and the SPPF/PL will not budge.
I/we had just done our first bit of experience acquisition by several leading international institutions in vienna - when we arrived in London and faced this phenomena from our communities then 1979 - they would not pack a gun and take the life of an individual - they would use/reverd to the foulest and most dreadful vocbular in Creole to discuss and joke about politic, social issues and life. This translated in English or French or Italian is terrible.
To support this will give an example - we have had the International conference on Somali Pirate and all the international participants. Yet main stream political opposition and exile were not involved - we were the original cause for the muck to blow up in the first place. "talk of archaic, illuminati, fraternal, templar, freemason etc". In many countries arund the world and the many international agencies, officials working with exile/refugee are very familiar - they revert to utter violance, they kill.
This is not a Seychellois psycology, not Mauritian or Reunionais.
For all the talk of a Somali Pirate Centre with the support of the EU and International community - the Somali community in Britain do not give two pins to what the Seychelles government and its partners think and do.
On behalf of our exile/refugee working in London/Britian currently putting in place certain working structures which will enable us to work with the issues of the Somali Pirate in Seychelles and the region. We are not getting any support form the British Authorities, the EU and others - yet when we contribute and drive issues in positive direction - those who take credit and claim it is their achivement.
"Just to give a small example yesterday - the Police knew where we were, looking for a different location to work among the worse working environment in London - because of cost and money - we have written and address such issues and then suddenly there is a coup d'etat in Mali." We also visited a part of London where the Muslim community have several shops, office and other resource - we have near nothing by way of building -safe using shared resource and those people/community do not make input at International, African Union, Regional Indian Ocean or EU level.
to continue below...
continuation from above thread....
If/should President JA Michel choose to ignore/his government and those Ministers that is their rights, President FA Rene know other wise, President Mancham, Dr Maxime Ferrari and Mr Robert Frichot. Hence the many statement if our exile/refugee major working was based elsewhere the marked political development in Seychelles, Mauritius, the Somali and the Region.
Having tried to explain - the psycology of our political working, what will those who want/call to see justice in Seychelles do/publish next time.
We want to state again very plainly in our exile/refugee archaic, fraternal, illuminati, templar and masonic working there are very important mechanism which most of those involved in our politic refuse to acknowledge - they impact and influence the world workings too.
There is the need for those who have such understanding and knowledge to think very hard - they have responsibilities and as such when it is recognise and the accountability and answerability.
Give that the Government has announce their have a new Water system in place for La Miser residence - what trigerred that so call "di leau kaka " our ancestral archaic, fraternal, christian, illuminati, templar and masonic working". Those many institutions to fight/study and undertake emergency work in Seychelles and the Region.

The first seed that FAR planted is the butcher himself.Wwithout FAR he would today be sweeping the streets.And when he finished we will start clean up our country from all pp crooks.You say no one can prevent FAURE from accessing Statehouse,Well,the people can prevent him from accessing statehouse should they wish unless you think The Presidency is sometihng inherited from birth and FAURE must at all cost be President becuase god sent him to be.If FAURE become President is becuase the Butcher will leave before his term(a common pratice by communists) but once election conducted FAURE will be send to the dustbin of History this time around.We will not acept any Pp dictator anymore after 2016.

President Faure ? It will never happen.
Danny Faure is back on prize-giving duties. Enough to make one resign.
Didn't have the guts to see through his resignation threats.
Danny Faure faces the PL traitors
Danny Faure took my advice about his sour face on SBC and Nation. Today he manages a smile -- but quite a forced smile clearly.
Seychelles Nation is slow to pick up the fact the on-off and off-on Vice President is out of favour with State House and that his photos (mostly him giving out prizes and certificates, before he gets his depar volonter) should be off the front page and relegated to inside pages. The country does not need to be reminded that this is the man who will never be President and that Parti Lepep in-fighting is damaging the country.
The belles who are the power behind the button at State House hate Danny Faure's guts more than we in the real opposition do. His cards are marked. His days are numbered. Roll out the clichés. Danny Faure is a goner and his resignation threats are empty. He is firing blanks.
Traitor St Ange's self-promotion
That Danny Faure should be betrayed by his own side does not come as a surprise. Parti Lepep has engineered betrayals in the opposition ranks. One such traitor is Alain St Ange, the prolific writer of eTurbo News press releases on Alain St Ange.
The latest eTurbo News Global Travel and Industry News has a press release on St Ange as "New Seychelles Minister appeals for promotion of cultural heritage". Clear proof that St Ange has been abusing his position as eTurbo News ambassador to promote himself. Many will rightly wonder what has St Ange's speech to La Francophonie got to do with tourism news from Seychelles.
Is our new Minister then spending his time writing press releases and posting them on web-sites that few people read ? This is clear proof that there are too many ministers in this new cabinet and they are under-employed.
Fancy a press release on La Francophonie being written in English and not French. Are we now asking tourists to come and see Alain St Ange and not Seychelles ? No wonder they are staying away.
St Ange seems not to really know what his job is as minister.He must choose betwwen the two minister or journalist.OUr tourism industry is in a mess and we need a minister who concentrate all his force in this ministry in order to fix the mess.It must be a full job and if St Ange think that he cannot concentrate on this job alone ,he must quite the porfolio of tourism ministry .We awating for Minister St Ange to instead provide the industry with concrete solution of how he is going to turn our tourism industry in free fall to a porfitable industry for now he haven't heard a word of which strategy or plan St,Ange has to fix the mess nor has he consulted any Individuals in the indsutry to see what they have to propose.St Ange seems happy to be minister but has forgotten that the indsutry need rapid strategy and plan and that businees people in the indsutry loosing money becuase of PP failed strategy need guidance of how to proceed and that a fast as possible.
St Ange should be given a dead line to present a genuine and effective genral plan of what he is planing to handed the decaying industry now.Else he should present his demission.

Not sold out and out of print ? Printed too many copies ? What a disappointment !
Dr the butcher book did not sell one copy and even for free people refused it.His man of the people has long been removed for the shelves in Chinese shops and recycled into toilet papers.
Mitcy took four decades to realize our health system under PP is bankrutped.The fact is that La population knows it for years and have on several occasions cried out to the Pp regime to fix the mess but the butcher and his ilks played deaf ears.
How,that Dr Mitcy has discovered Pp's mess,the natural question is what is she going to do to clean up this communist mess,some Cuban educated doctors tried to save our health system but fialed now we awaiting to see what Dr Mitcy together with Prof. Dr.Michel is going to do.What is your master plan Mitcy?

That Mitcy indentified flaws in our health system created by bad strategy and mis-mangement by Pp and which exits for decades is not a sign of a good health minister,it is a sign of how bad things must be before PP crooks indentify the mess.The same for Air Seychelles,it took PP decades before it could understand that bailing any company for decades without making profit is a failed strategy and should have long been dealt with instead of wating almost decades to act.Pp faileure to act ,deliver,consult and son has resulted in the bankrutpcy of our Airline.Dito,to Tourism industry ,it becuase of bad strategy,Our economy in general also fro the same results.

It is time for a serious change in our country and I don't mean Joel Morgans Ghurkas but a bloody coup detat just like Albert did to remove Michel and his idiots from power.

That old retired,ailing women who their whole lives dedicated to the country,working hard for peanuts in the hope to better the dovelopment of our country for and our children must after all those hard years be totally desperate to see that they envision for ther future of this contry(namely improvement,bettermentt of the people lives,security etc)was a waste of time for the govenrment in place failed to do what it suppose to do.
As the blogger put it.Pp crooks afraid of the same criminal they created and can not longer control their own frabricated criminals must themselves now live behind electrified walls guarded by heavy arms cronies(paid with tax payers money),what does that tell must?Simply that PP can not control the mess it created and cannot even find solution to deal with the increase of crimes in a country of 88 thousand people.Just imagine we had a population of over 200 hundred thousand or so what for a situation we would be in.
Pp has promised to modernized our police forces ,instead of sending our people aborad to study,train,and acquire experience.What do i mean by that?Instead of importing Scully,or other retired Irish personel to control our police forces and eran all big salary ,pension,bonuses,and all expences paid by our people in order to do nothing than having thier holidays,we should (the governemnt)together with European friends,the possibility of sending our police personel in their police school,have practical training by particiapting with them in their operations,see how things are really done,etc..only this way our own police forces can improve,be professional.One must understand that bringing Scully here to speak about his experience to people who never experience and have the kind of police training a european for example have, you could bring whoever foregners you want nothing will change.Use the dollars,pound sterling not to import foreigners to control our ofrces but the contary use it to send our poeple aborad to gain the qualification,experience in order that they can pass it to future police forces.On the long term ,it is much beneficial for us than importing retired foreigners who does nothing than having their full board holiday here all paid by our tax payers money.
That Pp crooks locked themslves behind electrified walls guard by heavy armed cronies shows the gravity of the situation and the mess PP has created that it cannot even control its own fabricated PP criminals.Crimnals are taking over and >General Morgan,Fieldmarshal Michel and all his admirals just do not have the solution to solve their own mess.
We expected the governemnt as part of its duty and obligation to protect our people,unfortunately this govenrment has failed to delivered ,it has become the cuase of the problem.

Grandstanding by the one-party national assembly
The lily-livered MNAs find it easier to blame the judiciary for the crime wave sweeping the country. They should of course be blaming their own incompetent government.
These MNAs are also behaving like nincompoops. They passed a motion asking the judiciary to stop passing concurrent sentences. They are fools -- the judges are following the law on concurrent sentencing.
If MNAs do not like it, they should get their government to bring in legislation to get rid of concurrent sentences.
Truly, there is one born every minute. And that includes David Pierre.
Pierre of course cannot bring a motion, as he has no one to second it. Unless Parti Lepep comes to his rescue again.
Although, mind you, that did not stop Pierre nominating and seconding himself as Leader of the Opposition (in the national assembly) and Govinden has told us it was all legit.

If Danny Faure was a dog, we would be entitled to put him down to end his suffering at the hands of James Michel. James Michel is looking like a bully and Danny Faure is looking like someone who is prepared to suffer any suffering and submit to any torture in order to become president one day. But the writing is on the wall. Faure will never become president and all the suffering and humiliation will be in vain in the end.
We have seen some tortuous performances from Faure lately, whereas he was highly confident in the past.
It was painful to watch his interview from Calais where he was sent to observe the loading of the cable for the internet. We saw a man who was finding it painful to find the right words on SBC.
Then came the resignation that never happened and that rocked the Parti Lepep government.
The public show of solidarity between President and Vice President last Monday backfired when they went to visit the offices of the National Youth Council. Faure was always walking a few steps behind Michel. They did not speak to each other. In fact they did not even acknowledge each other's presence. So the PR exercise did more damage than good. Again Faure's interview on SBC exposed the man's unhappiness in his current role or non-role, and the fact that he will never be president.
It is clear. Michel cannot stand Faure any more. But he cannot get rid of him, without calling fresh presidential elections. Michel has welcomed traitors into his government. Yet he cannot stand the Cuba-trained Parti Lepep born and bred politician. That must be really painful for Faure.
The question is this. How long will Faure submit to this public humiliation which is designed to force him to resign and send him into the political wilderness ?

"People of Seychelles" and "Lepep Seselwa" are not the same thing, according to Pierre.

Hungarian President Pal Schmitt stripped of doctorate
A university in Hungary has stripped President Pal Schmitt of his doctorate after it found that large parts of his thesis were plagiarised.
Budapest's Semmelweis University conducted an inquiry into the award after reports surfaced in a newspaper in January.
The university's rector condemned a "violation of scientific norms".
This won't happen to Dr James Michel -- because he never wrote a thesis for his doctorate in the first place.
