Point de Vue Mauritius
Rich man, poor man
Rama Sithanen ena boukou merit. Malgre so lanfans difisil, li finn montre so kouraz ek determinasion. Li entelizan e ardwerker. Sa explik so sikse profesionel. Me li agasan kan li servi so lanfans difisil kom enn kalifikasion ki garanti bonte ek zenerozite.

Sithanen’s legacy and heritage
The return of Rama Sithanen on the political scene leaves a very bad taste in the mouth of the majority of the electorate in this country. As we understand, Mr Sithanen has already joined the Labour party of Ramgoolam and in case of a victory of the PTR-MMM, Sithanen will…

A complete change
There are many capable and qualified people in Mauritius, especially young people, who are interested to make a change for our country but are unable to join politics for fear of backlash.

Capitalist development in Mauritius
Mauritius can never be like Singapore as long as we have a system of communalism and nepotism within our administration. In Singapore, we have development that benefited the masses, whereas in Mauritius we have a capitalist system of development. Our country is divided into the very rich and the very…

Propositions
Je peux comprendre pourquoi Rama Sithanen a été écarté par Navin Ramgoolam en 2010. Il lui était reproché d’avoir pris des décisions qui ont lourdement impacté sur la classe moyenne.

Calli…Khan
The contract of Dan Callikan has been renewed for three years. Do we not have someone else (more qualified) in Mauritius who can manage the MBC better than him?

Patient’s rights
In Mauritius, health care has always been considered as almost a fundamental right of the people. This is the reason why it has been provided free by the State.

Touché par la crise
Je travaille depuis quatre ans dans une entreprise. J’ai ce qu’on pourrait appeler un bon job. Ce qui signifie que je fais le boulot de trois personnes. Quant au salaire, il n’a pas encore dépassé les Rs 15 000 par mois.

Charlatanisme
La superstition, sous toutes ses formes, a depuis belle lurette jeté le grappin sur les comportements de certains compatriotes. Le Dimanche/L’Hebdo, dans son numéro du 31 août, ne nous donne qu'un petit aperçu.

Harold Casimir : Where has civilization gone?
Are the moral resources of human civilization so exhausted, that peace in Palestine and the Middle East cannot be achieved? From the thunderous falls of heavy bombs to the placidity of a cool; eternal peace, will it be just a dream?

Political controversy
If Paul Bérenger insists in his strategy to work out for an alliance with the Labour party of Ramgoolam for the next general elections, he would commit the very same mistake Pravind Jugnauth did when his MSM joined the Labour party in 2010.

Evidence please
Why should the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) offer explanations concerning Airports of Mauritius (AML)? If l’express, Raj Meetarbhan, Anerood Jugnauth (and/or Pravind Jugnauth), Ivan Collendaveloo or anybody else has evidence to prove corruption at the level of AML, let them produce their evidence to the Independent Commission against Corruption (Icac).

Watch out !
If a bus or other vehicle is blocking your vision, do not assume that it is safe on the other side. Anticipate the worst and adopt a defensive driving. But more importantly, watch out for two-wheelers.

Uninsured drivers
Is there a provision made in our Road Traffic Act to compensate victims of uninsured drivers on our roads ? It would appear that the Police, Road Safety Officers, the Ministry of Transport, National Transport Authority and Road Development Authorities are concentrating too much on Speed Cameras and the penalty…

Pauvreté
Il faudrait s’intéresser de près aux personnes travaillant dans les commerces, tels les magasins, restaurants, services de nettoyage, usines textiles... Demandez à ces gens combien ils touchent réellement comme salaire mensuel.

Ebola
L'Afrique a toujours connu des épidémies dévastatrices. Le continent noir vit aujourd'hui un chapitre effarant avec l’Ebola. Il ne s’agit pas d’un tueur né hier.

Patois
Bien des facteurs ont fait que le noir – bantou, houve ou dravidien – ait voulu s’associer, voire s’assimiler à l’européen : l’abolition officielle de l’esclavage et sa mise en vigueur au XIXe siècle ; l’émancipation suivie de la période d’apprentissage ; l’évangélisation avec l’avènement Père Laval ; enfin la scolarisation…
