The word “JUNK” is taking on a new meaning with the SPPF at the helm of our countries affairs. A brief look at events as they unfold reveal a Government in collapse and all the props and lies they have made to the People of Seychelles are becoming evident as their bogus policies unravel before their own eyes. Seychellois, if you open your eyes and minds today, you will see the same play of failure unraveling. Our future is not with SPPF only our past is. As they lie to us on SBC and make us believe fish can swim on land, do not be fooled. As their pawns at SBC help them fake our prosperity when you see them, you see the lies and deception have come full circle only to have to face the SPPF themselves.
Seychellois, this is a good time to recall all those lovely Election Promises Mr. President made to us not long ago. Election Promises are a candidate’s “Manifesto” or Promise in simple terms to his People. The People vote for a candidate based on his Promise or Manifesto if you will.
Mr. President went on SBC before the last Presidential Elections last year and said, “... it is SPPF Policy that our Rupee will remain strong”. This was an Election Promise made to all Seychellois, SPPF, SNP, and DP alike.
Today the Rupee is devaluing by as much as 40% against the Euro and Mr. President is nowhere to be seen on the subject. It is a collapsing currency. By the end of this year, it may devalue by a total of 100%. The Rupee has become a Junk Currency (High Risk). Even wise old ladies are taking whatever Rupees they have left in the commercial banks out and closing accounts once and for all. Back to the mattress and sewing kits. The writing is on the wall for those who are smart enough to believe what is written.
In absence of Mr. President on the matter, Mr. Faure a Minister that acts a little like France Albert Rene on SBC, (which reminds me of my six (6) year old Son who likes wearing Superman suits) tells us now that we must have a “Competitive Rupee”, the “Rupee must adjust” and that his Ministry has no control over the value of the Rupee and it is set by an “Independent Central Bank”.
In
I say to Mr. Faure and his SPPF a serious and responsible Government keeps its Election Promises it makes to the People. A Promise to keep the Rupee Strong is a Manifesto made to the People which they expect you to keep. When you walk away from your Promise, the People have every right to ask you to be brave and call new Elections.
The SPPF lie and break Election Promises to Seychellois time and time again.
Mr. President went on SBC before Elections last year and told us, “...it is SPPF Policy to not raise the price of fuel in order to create more economic activity in
This means that the fuel brought into the Country has been put to very unproductive use from 2001 to 2007. Where did all the fuel go? Much of the fuel has likely been resold by “some organization” that can buy fuel for cheap, tax free and that same organization has the power (unfettered of course) to resell the same to boats, ships and planes. Perhaps the Ministry of Finance can divulged the Island Development Corporation’s (IDC) fuel concessions books showing how much fuel it has received from SEPEC since 2001 until 2007 before it hiked fuel cost upon us Seychellois. Then we would know how relatives manage to keep books straight and run a tight ship in the name of the People of Seychelles. Of course, we must all be grateful.
Behind SPPF fake curtains of success is really great failure, which today they find it convenient, to have the People of
Mr. President and his team have broken another Election Promise of not increasing fuel prices.
Mr. President went on the campaign trail and even went to Church 12 months ago. He went on SBC and told us, he is a President for all Seychellois....he told us he has a heart for every Seychellois; he even told us that
Today, he has fired many civil servants. The numbers are in the hundreds. There will be more to follow. It’s futile to think you will not be next. Sooner or later, you will be next. Over 60 of these terminations have been in the Information Technology (IT) Sector a field the Government of Seychelles needs much assistance in after failing to successfully set up “e- government”, after over Rupees 20 Million was spent on that brainy idea, which was contracted out to SPACE, without first securing sufficient fiber optic cables and adequate server capacity. The Seychellois terminated will be most likely replaced by expats as usual under SPPF. Our thoughts go out to all of them and their families whether or not they are SPPF, DP or SNP. They are after all, Seychellois.
History must record, that the weeks before the terminations took place, this President closed his Victoria Office which traditionally received the public. He told us to go to the Districts for assistance. He also took himself a nice shopping holiday in
While civilians are fired, military personnel are promoted of course. Recently, Mr. President has promoted the military cadre remaining in his “People’s Army” . This is not a coincidence but testimony of one fact: we live in a military state and as things get worse economically in
Mr. President has broken another Promise to have a heart for every Seychellois!
Mr. President told us “
All the while, Mr. President inhibits Seychellois from developing their own properties in their own Country. Under Mr. President and SPPF we are not Booming! We are heading for Doom! He will create an island oasis for the rich and powerful from the dessert sands.
We Seychellois will be told do not worry, we are only restructuring. Restructuring it is. We are being displaced in our own Country, regulated to Third Class Citizens. SPPF will make us all servants and street cleaners in our own Country. SPPF has betrayed the trust of the People. Those who have not seen this must open their eyes. Those that see must educate their brothers and sisters who live in complete darkness of events unfolding before them. The Torch of Freedom is bright enough to bring light even in the darkest corner of the world, where evil men ply their evil trade. We must bring forth light!
Mr. President said in October 2006, upon arrival to
What Mr. President did then was seek out a Sovereign Credit Rating for
“Two Junk Bonds Don’t Make a Right...a Third Junk Bond... May just turn off the Lights!”
May God Bless All Freedom Loving Seychellois!
