Seychelles President James Michel calls Presidential Election

We acknowledge those who posted their Facebook feed - our primer training/experience is in the field of Interdisciplinary/Multidisciplinary High Management - meaning.

The important news from Sechelles Seychelles after adding some 68 image of UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon historic visit, 7-8/5/16 and Mauritius our News feed article in particular why his 2012 visit was cancelled, the highly abnormal historic situation whereby a nation of our size, geopolitical circumstance/position and European ancestral origin initiate and implement such a refugee/exile program - the evolving benchmark of world diplomacy form then Cold War to date. Who those supposed to represent and defend democracy comport. What those who want and aspire changes and oppose many of the terrible situation revert to and the state of the world working and danger to humanity - in instance the capacity and functionality to counter check and compel those world institutions to comport. Yet.

We did not have a University, those with University Education form then Sechelles Seychelles before that time and then Cold War Seychelles. "The Communication, social, corporate workings, scientific and a very long list of those Communist Nations". this included Yugoslavia and it was considered to be the best model of Communist era government, central economy, democratic /society workings. At the helm of our Nation was President FA Rene his ministers. We found our self working and intervening in some of the complex thematic, from 1997 onward. including the great Person of president Tito, some of his Officials. Those involved from Seychelles en-devouring to change our Nation and the failed attempts.

Beside the topic of Prof Von Hayak and Prof M Hofmann we found our-self working in London, then Lady Thatcher the thematic of Yugoslav nation, economy, politic and development. You/one do not undertake such working without the knowledge of the elite system/institutions of the world. What we have written those who wanted at all cost to destroy that model and the length they would go - the President Gorbachev. Those who understand the science of working and imputing in the high management of other nations and their leadership. What really started that Yugoslav War and the death - our role and involvement o help set up the ICC. Events and Trials and media coverage. The many articles we have addressed of those third world head of state being conned/ programmed and manipulated like Saddam Hussein and other and their Fate. Where and how president J A Michel acquired his knowledge and capacity.

The news that he has been decorated with Serbia Highest decoration. ( The Facebook article yesterday about President J A Michel perception of corruption and the Anti corruption conference in London 12/5/2016 - across the world to fight corruption what their people and nations have had to revert to/actions. )

This is when we revert to Judge E J Stiven Manure article, why cannot we be like the leader who overthrew Zanzibar or Emperor Bokassa and a few others, surround our person with decorations. To be really manuery - the introduction and establish of the Illuminati, Masonic and Templar workings in former Yugoslavia. Their functionality today in EU - the bloody mess and fiasco we have landed in. British calling for pulling out. What we have been writing - being the first Seychellois back when Mr Gerard Hoareau, Leader of SNM/MPR other wishing changes - were promoting that for the future stability of the Indian Ocean and Seychelles .Mauritius this would not be the USA, USSR, OAU, None aligned but the EU. Today's communication in that Seychelles the implementation of that satanic mechanism/CJD and all those with University Education in that Seychelles their inability to see beyond their nose, programmed nerds.

Comment - His fate would have been very different if/should he not have been so  "hard headed".  The call for the setting up of a two tier parliament - Senate  and his refusal. He should think of the aftermath.

We have battle/fought for near 30 years to build our Justice, Police system/Institutions.
We are a great believer in Empowering the people - NGO workings and president Obama backyards.
Via/though that SIROP how we have empowered nations small and great poor and rich.
Hence/In the process the mountain of misguided sleazes including the Al Kaida and Taliban debacle - the formula those use to build their struggles good or bad -
In that Seychelles 30 years ago you /we lived in the planet of the ‪#‎Apes‬. Via and on account of that SIROP program linked you with some of the most dynamic and sophisticated workings of the world our planet. Including the creation of Facebook - "on the plantation when we worked side by side with our men and woman and we had a good day or week - they would turn round and say Master John - that was how they called my person - thumb up."
The thousands of you in that Seychelles your crazy/mad master John gave your that WWW connectivity and countless other possibilities - you have let yourself down and your crazy/mad master John. It does not encourage him to do more for you.
The founding president of Seychelles communicate in very excellent English - do you in that Sechelles Seychelles - all of you need to open your ears very big go and borrow it from the elephant. - http://www.nation.sc/images/2016/May/31/SIR%20JAMES%20WITH%20MAXIM%20BEHAR.jpg

Anyone notice how guilty the CJ looked? She had hardly finished delivering her verdict when she lifted her backside and legged it for the door. Her body language, the constant repetition of moving her glasses, drinking, moving the mic, speaking in such a quick fashion on such an important issue, showed she was uncomfortable and made her look guilty in my opinion.

President James A Michel has welcomed the ruling of the Constitutional Court confirming the validity of the last presidential election in December 2015. Hailing the ruling of the Constitutional Court as a “landmark victory for the rule of law and democracy in Seychelles” and a “powerful affirmation of judicial independence and impartiality in the country”, President Michel said that neither the legitimacy of the electoral process nor that of his election as President of the Republic of Seychelles were ever in doubt. “I may have been disappointed by the results but I never had any intention of challenging them. I accepted them, in good faith, as the manifestation of the sovereign will and right of the people of Seychelles,” said President Michel. According to the President, the ruling of the Constitutional Court “confirms – in unequivocal terms – the primacy of the rule of law, the fairness, the impartiality and independence of our judicial system, the respect of our democratic institutions and the will of the people”. The President said that he also took note of certain points in the ruling which represent challenges which need to be addressed to further strengthen Seychelles’ democratic institutions.
I dare Mr Misel look himself in the mirror and call himself the victor in this matter?

(Seychelles News Agency) - In an eagerly awaited verdict, the Seychelles Constitutional Court on Tuesday upheld President James Michel’s election win, rejecting an opposition party’s petitions to overturn the results of the December poll.
The case against Michel's election win was filed after a historical run-off contested by President Michel, also leader of the ruling Parti Lepep, and the leader of the Seychelles National Party, Wavel Ramkalawan.
A difference of 193 votes separated the two candidates. Michel was declared the winner with 50.15 percent of the vote, while Ramkalawan won 49.85 percent of the vote, according to the Electoral Commission.

Validity of the last presidential election

President Michel welcomes Constitutional Court’s ruling

http://www.nation.sc/article.html?id=249640

We were reading Mr Jean Payet thread that the Seychelles nation/Opposition have been to soft with president J A Michel and those suggesting unorthodox action.

For some 15 years have been pointing finger at the Legal system, the Lawyers fraternity of Seychelles - once again this is a situation/case which impact and affect the very fondament of our nation workings, from Facebook comment and we relied on then, the preparation of the Presidential 2016 constitutional case. We have also en-devoured to follow any individuals with legal practice their comments or impute - we came across none.

We are talking from the position of those 25,000/30,000 exiles refugees from Seychelles - this case is far
from finish.

We want to remind everybody in that country call Seychelles, the COI Nation and the SADC nations - why we got involved and got those involved to change the OAU to AU, in Africa those bitter complaining of the mega disparity between the EU workings, Institution and the OAU. The African Union have got resources to review the Seychelles Constitutional Court Judgement - though the Interdisciplinary / Multidisciplinary knowledge we have amassed over the 35 years - it require savvy lawyers or young professional to put together a concept to present to the appropriate African Union body. We would be taking a leaf of President JA Michel book, the incident of Madagascar in exile and how he became embroiled. many have short memory in that country. It is not a question of Money.

Beside the African Union we have the European Union who can assist if/should the right Department and institutions be approached and once they become engage - they have a very different approach to the African Union.

Then we have the Commonwealth - again their resources and capacity - it requires a group of individuals framed with those of legal knowledge to approach then and request that they become involved.

Seychelles being a member of the Francophone - they to have resources.

Then we have SADC Resources and those who know have effective they have been in the past.

We are going to link the Library of Congress here - in the USA the resources the have to help small nation work/find such solution - President Barack Obama pointed out when he took office 7 years ago the rate of USA unemployment and the mechanism and those who helped the USA get back on its feet - we are calling a return of nation favor.

We want to stress - the brief issues we presented the EU high parties before the Seychelles presidential election - the massive undercurrent - we have those who represent us in Seychelles but they are not effective enough - we have requested time and time they join us in Europe and their approach/respond. We have listened to four major personalities public reaction - you need to keep you cool and go down the right path even if a respond, results is given after President J A Michel have left Office. We would like to say/note that the stitch up of the NGO in Seychelles along the line of the Court functioning is not going to be helpful because in the normal case they should have been at the forefront, to come and help /support .

Comment Facebook
We have taken the time and effort to explain to those administrating and delivering Justice in Seychelles the linking and many new workings instruments and mechanism related to law and justice - in as much as those judgement was were 300 pages. We helped contributed to setting the Forensic Police Department in Seychelles and as such the Forensic working in Judge and Commission - we have been very conservative and modest in addressing the many death in the Region of the Indian Ocean and the world with that Presidential election and Trial - when you get a situation the Justice system and those who administer them refute/wishing to completely ignore such workings and facts - then we have a situation when those held bent on utter criminal practices and dangerous practices, they say well - we have got away with a very great deal of killings using mechanism and instruments which the Justice and Police or relevant bodies ought to be regulating and monitoring - they have failed and are failing so what. We can make a selected list. This in respond to Mr jean Payet thread. When people are being slaughtered in association with such mechanism and working and you get Judges saying whatsoever - we are in very serious trouble a it like the UN Secretary General Ban Ki - Moon gaping at the Coco de Mer for all the mega death and destruction we have experience the past 30 years.


Facebook Comment
Having addressed the appealing workings of Seychelles high parties, their regional and International politic  for the past 25 years and the blood, death. About the time Russia became engaged in the Syria situation, some 6 months ago - those from the Arab world,  Arab league nations who began to respond not to President J A Michel politic - but to some of the issues we were publishing and addressing about that SIROP program - what had gone wrong and was going very wrong. They have unsurpassed Resources too - resulting that they began to reformulate their national and regional politic on those issues at the same time using Sechelles Seychelles government  and the Person of President J A Michel to make /build inroad in our very many complex and complicated workings. (This is nothing new,  president Saddam Hussein did it, president Qaddafi, the father of Syria current president and other Gulf Region  heads of State been doing for a long while) For the destruction and killing going  and their military cost it is/was a drop in the Ocean to provide and make available to Seychelles and its government the modest financial and technical support - Those well aware of the Paris and Belgium debacles. ( When we addressed the Nigerian person the day before the presidential Constitutional judgement - we had not shared those issues with him and listened to him instead - these are not issues to be shared and discussed with just anybody. We are mentioning this because  of the $350,000,  the Arab Development Funds/Bank are providing/making available to Seychelles - the need to analyse the motives, reason behind that large sum of money - like the Chinese, the Arabs  are well aware that President J A Michel cannot/have not control, capacity to control developments in that Region - what they are doing using the many Seychelles diplomatic network to infiltrate and work their own interests and politic. Many of those workings and thematic spilled on the streets of London during the Blair/Brown government. What should be really happening - those Arab entities should be talking, addressing their respective problematic with those that are responsible for that SIROP program. The view held in Germany, Scandinavia and Netherlands.  Now we come to the rotten part - those in Seychelles from the Opposition for a very long time workings and linked with the Offshore  of Seychelles,  their clients and the amount of money they handle - the Arab money they handle. Resulting they cannot compromise their business interest and the 25,000/30,000 exile/refugees get/is let down. Little progress on their respective interests. The EU must be aware of this situation  and some of the big government of EU. This situation has been going for too long and hence the emphasis - call a gatherings of those wiling to debate and take part in reappraising the working of that Historic program  and rebuild in it the many of today's challenges and problematic and that way create a road map as those in the USA may say, including General Colin Powell for the next 5 years we have a reasonable working guideline direction to travel to/navigate.


Facebook Comment
There were some misgiving when Ugandan Frederick Egonda-Ntende chief Justice was appointed -the ray of hope we had seen in a number of Seychelles justice issues in our case the exile/refugees - He had been involved in the East Timor conflict solving - in spite of  not media coverage of our terrible problematic, beside Uganda and the African Union problematic - having written our impute in helping to develop appropriate management parameters of our justice and Court functioning - the setting up of the Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”), because of the exasperated situation between former President FA Rene/ the current government over that SIROP program and money we are entitled and the leveraging of many government Projects using that Program as leverage - beside linking incidents in South Africa, Kenya, Somali, Ethiopia and the Gulf Region. We stress he had adequate knowledge and experience - that was prior we pressured Bruxelles and Strasbourg to demand more accountability of Seychelles government and president J A Michel. Chief Justice Frederick Egonda-Ntende had urged my person to use the mechanism of Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”), He also held the view that those 25,000/30,000 exile/refugees had Rights  and that we should set up an adequate workings in Seychelles. The question we/to ask of everybody why is there a very marked departure from this policy since Judge Matilda Towmey was appointed Chief Justice. Those who have on several occasions referred to her part in the Constitution referendum for the 3rd Republic. It was in part her lack of support for our Rights and Cause which made us to pressure Bruxelles and Strasbourg, others in EU and the 2015 presidential. In delivering the Judgement she have - sets/put her on a confrontation path with regards to the Rights and politic of those 25,000/30,000 Seychelles exiles. Noting the spillover on the Streets of Europe and the many linking very grave Gulf Region linking issue.

Seychelles to benefit from more BADEA help

02-June-2016


Seychelles is to benefit from more help from the Arab Bank of Economic Development in Africa.
The opportunity for more help comes after the Bank’s Board of Directors has approved the financing of new development operations in Africa, amounting to a total of US $138.875 million. The approval was granted during the Arab Bank of Economic Development in Africa’s (BADEA) second board of directors meeting which is currently being held at the Kempinski Resort at Baie Lazare.
Seychelles is to benefit directly through a grant in favour of the Public Utilities Corporation (PUC) customer services division. The funding will help the company improve on its marketing campaigns, general administration as well as services provided to the community.
The agreement to seal the cooperation was signed by the Minister for Finance, Trade and the Blue Economy Jean-Paul Adam and the chairman of BADEA’s board of directors Yousif Bin Ibrahim Al Bassam, at the opening of the board meeting yesterday morning.
After the signing, Minister Adam commended BADEA for its presence in Africa for the past 35 years, especially in Seychelles which he reminded has benefitted from the Bank’s partnership. This has been in the fields of infrastructure, energy, transportation and tourism.
Projects financed by BADEA include the modernisation of the Seychelles International Airport, provision of utilities infrastructure for Ile Persévérance, improvement of the electricity network in south Mahé and construction of post secondary institutions. These are the Seychelles Institute of Technology (SIT), Seychelles Maritime Academy formerly the Maritime Training Centre (MTC) and the Seychelles Tourism Academy (STA).
“Through technical support in a total of 25 projects amounting to over US $90 million, BADEA has assisted the Seychelles’ government and its agencies to develop and implement policies and programmes to continuously improve the quality of life of the people. […] It is with much pride that I say that the projects have contributed positively to the socio-economic development of the country”, Mr Adam said.
The minister also commented that it was a great honour for Seychelles to have been chosen as the host country for this very important meeting.
Altogether, BADEA has financed development projects in Africa since 1975, amounting to a total of more than US $5 billion.

Linyon Demokratik Seselwa rejects judgement of Constitutional Court

04-June-2016
Linyon Demokratik Seselwa (LDS) has said it completely rejects the judgement of the Constitutional Court delivered on May 31, 2016, on the petition challenging the results of the December 2015 presidential election.
“LDS considers the decisions of the Court to be unreasonable and politically biased in favour of the incumbent President and Party and therefore not a fair rendering of justice in the critical issue of the conduct of elections in our country,” LDS says in a communiqué.
The communiqué adds that the Court has accepted that there were multiple illegal practices in the electoral process …. but nevertheless declared that these illegal practices could not be attributed to the Parti Lepep presidential candidate, James Michel, because it had not been proven that the persons involved in these illegal practices had acted as Mr Michel’s agents.
“The Court has shown itself blind to the reality and has been unreasonable to expect that documentary evidence that these persons acted as agents of the candidate could be shown,” says the LDS communique.
“The Court has also found that there were multiple infractions of the law as well as of procedures laid down in the guidelines issued by the Electoral Commission, for which the main electoral officials, Hendrick Gappy, chairman of the Electoral Commission, and Charles Morin, Chief Electoral Officer, must bear the responsibility. Yet the Court has dismissed these infractions as being of no consequence because they would not have affected the declared results of the elections, without ever examining what the effect of the results could have been,” notes the communiqué.
“On the other hand, the Court has found that the petitioner in this case, presidential candidate of the Seychelles National Party Wavel Ramkalawan, was guilty of illegal practice and is issuing a report to that effect to the Electoral Commission which, it declares, will lead to Mr Ramkalawan being struck off the Electoral Register. It is totally incomprehensible why the Court would take this action when there has not been any petition accusing Mr Ramkalawan of illegal practice in the first place and without ever notifying him that he was under examination for such an offence or affording him the possibility of defending himself against such an accusation,” adds the communiqué.
LDS says it considers that the decisions of the Court have condoned illegal practices and have therefore not served the interest of democracy in our country.

Dear Wavel,

Judges do not comment- normally. I see the events of the past few days not as an attack on me but on the judiciary and hence my comments below. Please study them, speak to your supporters and stop unleashing hatred and violence on the judiciary.
I have had to move out of my home at Bel Eau. After JF's and your personal attack and character assassination of me and the showing of my home on the video you posted, some of your party supporters took the liberty to come to my house to abuse me. I am single as you know and live alone. I have been given extra security but that is not how I wish to live. I hope to move back next week. Please give me the guarantee that I can do so.
In 2011 I moved out of La Misere after the PDM judgment ( which ironically your Counsel stated in court the other day was correctly decided). Then too the intimidation was intense.
I have noted the vile and denigrating comments about me. You, Wavel, went to school with me and sat a few tables away from me in Six Lower. You are a man of the cloth and I respected you as such.
As for JF, I have never done him any harm only shown as much generosity and kindness to his family members when they stayed in my humble home in Ireland.
I left Seychelles in 1995 after much intimidation and also after a bullet was taped in an envelope to my office door. So you see I am used to intimidation and threats and from all political sides and also fanatics.
I have no skeletons in my cupboard and share the following events without shame.
When I left Seychelles, I brought nothing apart for my children with me to Ireland. There was no possibility of bringing my hard earned savings as there was a foreign exchange crisis. My husband worked during the day and I waitressed at night. I read and studied and looked after my babies during the day. I enquired about practising law and discovered that my English bar qualifications would not permit me to work in Ireland. I would have to sit the Irish property law exam and learn to speak Irish.
I obtained a job instead, first with the Citizens Information Centre in Galway and then with an Irish disability organisation. My legal skills were rewarded and I became the Regional Manager. I worked tirelessly for the rights of disabled people.
I eventually sold my home in Glacis to Adam Moosa's son. With the money we built a home in Kinvara, County Galway.
My children grew up. I paid for my own Masters and then got a grant from the Irish Research Council for a PhD. I lectured at the University of Ireland, Galway.
When I left those jobs to come and work to Seychelles I took a salary cut.
My marriage broke up. My family decided to stay in Ireland. All that hurt and still hurts.
I was never on the dole as you or JF claim. Nor was I 'naked' as you allege. I did not sleep my way to the top as it has also been alleged.
My parents, schoolteachers who taught you both, instilled in me a work ethic and love and respect for others. I sat a few tables away from you in school. You both really know me. I work hard and do everything by the book. My life is an open book. Your insinuations and character assassination are worse because of what you both really know.
My salary is statutorily provided for. After taxes I receive about fifty five thousand rupees in my hand. During the three months I sit on the Court of Appeal I also get paid as do other Supreme Court judges who are occasionally asked to make up the panel.
I bought a piece of land not far from my 90 year old mother at La Misere so that I can be close to her and care for her. I obtained a mortgage of 2 million from Nouvobanq to build the house. The terrain is challenging and I am still attempting to build the road.
I have a keen interest in the environment and love nature. I had a large garden in Ireland. I had 2 polytunnels. I kept bees. I had ducks and chickens.
I and three other women campaigned for a Farmers Market in Kinvara where I lived. We eventually got permission to set one up. I was lecturing at the time but on Fridays when I was not working I ran a stall. It was the highlight of my week. I still miss it but am so proud of what I did. JF's contemptible remarks on this issue is therefore almost funny.
I love markets and still go down early on Saturday to buy my fish and vegetables in Victoria.
I did not write a judgment. The Constitutional Court comprising of myself and 2 judges seconded from the Commonwealth ( not paid by Michel or looking for citizenship as has been alleged) wrote 2 unanimous judgments based on the evidence brought to the court. We don't make the law. We apply the law and do so without fear, favour or ill will even when it involves ones friends.
We welcome criticism and academic discussion about our judgment. If you disagree with our findings on the facts and law as interpreted you are free to appeal it.
Attacking me personally and getting your crowds to repeat and chant contemptible remarks about me is to say the least irresponsible. Someone spat on me yesterday. Tomorrow it might be worse.
'However', ( a word you take great exception to) I shall not be intimidated. I shall continue driving myself, shopping for myself and going for walks with my dog. Above all I shall continue to work for the country I love so dearly.
Please do so too, peacefully.
With much love,
Mathilda.

No political party can use the name ‘Linyon Sanzman’

02-August-2016
The Supreme Court has ruled that no political party can make use of the name ‘Linyon Sanzman’.
In a ruling delivered yesterday, Judge Bernardin Renaud ordered the Electoral Commission not to register any political party under that name “unless and until all the contentious issues as to the use of the name has been objectively resolved and settled”.
Judge Renaud’s decision follows a petition filed by the Lalyans Democratik Seselwa (LDS) which contested the second round of the December presidential election under the name, after the Electoral Commission had registered another political party under that same name - ‘Linyon Sanzman’.
His ruling read that the Electoral Commission has “committed fundamental procedural impropriety in failing to resolve the thorny issue in the use of the name, with the result that its decision is so outrageous in its defiance of accepted moral standards that no sensible person who applied his mind to the question could have arrived at it”.
It described the manner in which the decision was taken as against the principle of natural justice and the right to a fair hearing.
The Court has consequently directed the Electoral Commission to hear both applicants with the objective of resolving the contentious issues before any party can be registered under that name. This in spite that LDShas said that it no longer wishes to make use of the name.

Seychelles: James Michel to stand down as president

A turning point: President James Michel (left) congratulates opposition leader Roger Mancienne on winning parliamentary elections earlier this month

President James Michel of the Seychelles has said he will stand down next month after 12 years in office.

The 72-year-old was re-elected for a third term in December with a slight majority.

But his party lost parliamentary polls earlier this month, after 39 years in power in the Indian Ocean archipelago.
He is due to resign on 16 October, and to be replaced by Vice-President Danny Faure, who can serve only two terms under a new constitutional amendment.

"After 12 years as president, the time has come to hand over the reins of power," Mr Michel said in a televised address. "A new leader who will take Seychelles to the next frontier of its development."

http://www.seychellesnewsagency.com/articles/5985/Seychelles+President+Michel+to+step+down+in+October,+says+time+has+come+for+a+new+leader

Comment - We have decided to come back to this forum and the many posting - then issue of Berlin, the issue of the Treuhand and now the Deutsche Bank debacle - one may ask in view of some 35 years of working those thematic we were not able to foresee development and event of the National Assembly. Our Blog reaction and write up. We have covered the combination of the LDS abd the election. There is a a marked contrast - these were the same personalities we had en-devoured to turn things upside down that they get into the President Office and now the situation. With events of 1992, returning exile and president Mancham those who accused us that then Program - LDS got in the National Assembly and their appealing reaction and the vast many who have battled and sweated the past 40 years and their terrible acknowledgement and comportment .

We may now have to look at the scenario of a President Danny Faure working that SIROP program the next 4 years - still one should use the experience of working that historic program under two previous Presidents FA Rene and JA Michel and improve this with President Faure Presidency. We may have great difficulty in solving and overcoming the European and International aspect as we had expected and those in EU from the Commission and other. The International Refugee and exile issue.

Le Président James MichelLe Président James Michel, 72 ans, a annoncé mardi soir sa démission en affirmant qu’après douze ans passés au pouvoir le moment était arrivé de passer la main à un nouveau dirigeant qui sera chargé de conduire les Seychelles vers de nouvelles frontières. Cette décision a surpris tout le monde, sympathisants comme opposants, et nous l’avons approché pour en savoir davantage.

Monsieur le Président, à peine dix mois après votre prestation de serment pour un troisième mandat, vous démissionnez. Est-ce que vous vous imaginez un peu l’onde de choc que cela a créé dans le pays, à commencer par le parti dont vous êtes le leader?

Je peux comprendre la vague d’émotion que cela a pu créer chez certains et ce qu’ils peuvent ressentir en ce moment et j’en suis vraiment désolé. Mais je suis sûr qu’après le moment d’émotion, lorsque le temps de l’analyse et de la réflexion succèdera, ils me comprendront et salueront ma décision. Ils comprendront que je ne suis pas quelqu’un qui s’est engagé dans la politique pour son seul gain ou pour protéger les intérêts d’une minorité de gens. L’homme politique est celui qui s’investit dans des activités politiques et aspire à des positionnements pour assouvir son intérêt personnel. Mais l’homme d’Etat est celui qui bâtit les fondements de la nation et des institutions, qui les consolide et qui prépare la relève, pour le progrès continu de son pays. Le Président France Albert René a été un homme d’Etat, et il nous a laissé un pays avec une fondation solide, avant de prendre sa retraite. Pendant les douze années que j’ai passées comme président, j’ai fait de mon mieux pour préserver et améliorer cet héritage, selon mon style. Mon successeur Monsieur Danny Faure y apportera également sa pierre, selon un style qui lui est propre. C’est cette philosophie que nous partageons dans le Parti Lepep. Si je n’étais qu’à l’écoute de mes seuls intérêts rien ne me couterait d’exercer mon mandat jusqu’à l’épuisement des cinq ans !

The clinical/sanitary way the politician present our Nation workings and event.
Another good example the content of President J A Michel interview his statement he founded the Seychelles University - this debacle have been going on during our exile, had their been a successful counter coup d'etat and the SIROP program - it take years, vast complexities of associated topics, mock attempts, insult and tirade, sharing of ideas, external impute until one say go for it/let us do it. The manner and approach of president J A Michel, indeed past government working. Those calling for several Committee to look and study the past.
