WILL GOVERNMENT IMPLEMENT ELCTRONIC CUSTOMS CLEARANCE?

Mrs Lyvette Hermitte believes that her son, Rickie Hermitte, was also murdered by a member of the State Security and that the police should consider the man the prime suspect in her son’s death. ... read more

False Statistics or False Claim?

This week government propaganda on the publicly funded state broadcasting media has concentrated on scratching the bottom of the barrel to find good news. It started with a lengthy interview which President Michel gave exclusively to the SBC that was broadcast in full last Sunday evening. .... read more

SPDF FUNDING SPPF

The rubbish you have published today the first of the eighth of 2007 (01/08/07), I would like to take this opportunity to make me a hero before I die that the whole world will know that who is Jocelyn Chiwenga. Thats my name not ‘Army Chief’s Wife’. .... read more

A case of inflammation of character

President Michel at least came clean on that one, admitting that the country is becoming dirtier and dirtier with each passing day. Le Nouveau Seychelles Weekly is in total agreement with the President. Littering in this country is becoming an epidemic and something needs to be done about it. .... read more

WEEKLY BACKS PRESIDENT MICHEL’S CLEAN UP SEYCHELLES CAMPAIGN!

A reader recently complained that when he returned to the UK after a holiday in the Seychelles, he had been unable to change his surplus Seychelles rupees back into sterling. He wasn’t talking about a few pounds, either: he was stuck with nearly £100 of apparently worthless notes. .... read more

The worthless Seychelles rupee makes bad news abroad

The ‘youtube’ phenomenon has been going since February 2005, and allows the public to broadcast their own videos; it is a democratic medium where the audience are also the broadcasters. The other day I decided to have a look at what had been posted by Seychellois people about Seychelles.

The recent broadcasts by the Seychelles Peoples Progressive Front (SPPF) insist that they have the well-being and development of the Seychellois nation at the heart of their programme.  If they have the well-being of all Seychellois at the cornerstone of their political programme why do they ignore the wishes and aspirations of all the Seychellois overseas: The Seychellois Diaspora? .... read more

In spite of the impression given by President Michel that Seychelles is a modern state, the customs service has remained stuck in the pre-independence era as far as clearance of goods are concerned. Customs clearance has remained a paper transaction from beginning to end. .... read more

CAN WE TRUST PRESIDENT JAMES ALIX MICHEL?

This week President Michel reached the inauspicious 365 days milestone in office, practically ending his honeymoon period abruptly. He gave a more or less unimpressive performance on SBC last Sunday evening with an exposé of what he claimed were his accomplishments to date as well as his plan for the future of Seychelles. .... read more

Former First Lady, Sarha Rene, tested for drug?

For the past few weeks the Seychelles People’s Defence Force (SPDF) has been running a full-page colour advert in the People weekly newspaper to the exclusion of all other publications in Seychelles. The preference given to the SPPF is tantamount to a direct financial contribution by the government to the party from public funds.  .... read more

Oil in Seychelles Waters???!

The SPPF over the years have devised numerous scams by which to enslave the people of Seychelles. The latest con that has been in circulation in the last few years, ever since President Michel took up residence at State House, is “The Oil Scam”. .... read more

Antoine Onezime, a traditional SPPF and journalist by profession, cornered Mr. President James Michel in an exclusive SBC interview this week, in what appeared to be an ambush triggered by simply being fed up with Big Brother telling us lies. .... read more
