Mr Finette possesses high-level administrative credentials, with deep roots within the ruling political structure and is a long-standing confidant of Navin Ramgoolam, whom he describes as a trusted childhood friend.
His appointment is, however, being perceived by some as a traditional political reward rather than a selection based entirely on objective, competitive meritocracy.
Why is it being perceived as another of the “nominations bidons, enn lot ban kopains dinosaurs" ?
When a country wants to build ties with a top economic power like Germany, the choice of who to send depends heavily on what that country wants to achieve. Different backgrounds bring different strengths to a diplomatic mission.

We have yet to be convinced that Mr Finette’s appointment would bring specific advantages- for e.g 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒖𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒃𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔, 𝒔𝒑𝒐𝒕𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒕𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝑨𝑰, 𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒈𝒚, 𝒐𝒓 𝒅𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒅𝒆, 𝒗𝒊𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒏𝒆𝒕𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒇𝒂𝒔𝒕-𝒑𝒂𝒄𝒆𝒅 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒕-𝒖𝒑 𝒉𝒖𝒃𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒄𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆 𝑩𝒆𝒓𝒍𝒊𝒏 𝒐𝒓 𝑴𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒄𝒉-for the country
There are likely to be more doubters, more skeptics feeling that this appointment is a missed opportunity for the country.
Ultimately, only time will tell if this choice brings actual results to Mauritius or if it turns out to be just another political favor, another "nomination bidon".
