NEW EDITOR FOR SEYCHELLES WEEKLY

The editorial board of Le Nouveau Seychelles Weekly has announced this week that Mr. Ralph Volcere will be taking over the editorship of Le Nouveau Seychelles Weekly.

Ralph Volcere will replace Patrick Bonnelame who is leaving to take up new responsibilities. Bonnelame told the Nouveau Seychelles Weekly, that he had ‘spent an enjoyable albeit challenging 5 years with the paper.’

“When we started the paper in 2001, my brief was to build up a newspaper that would provide an alternative and respected medium of free expression which was highly lacking at that time. We have gone way beyond that, so I think I can safely say that it’s mission accomplished!” he said.

Bonnelame remains a member of the Board of Trustees of the paper.
