The Maha Shivratree and Thaipoosam Cavadee Task Force, headed by our Prime Minister, visited Grand-Bassin yesterday. The purpose of the visit was to ensure that all the necessary arrangements are in place to welcome the pilgrims .

The treatment of minorities !

The pre-2014 team are back in force !

Some of the very ones that were voted out in 2014 are back -here we go again with the same people, back to business as usual with the same cronies, same old guards -Sithanen, Gordon Gentil, Seebaluck, Sen Narainen, Sarat Lallah, Monvoisin, Sooroojebally, Fong-Weng Porun, Sandrine Valère ,Gokhool, Hungley, Kailash Ruhee, Ramnawaz,Bhuckory ….

They seem to be misfits at the BoM !

Our “competent” Governor and team do not seem to be the right persons at the right places. The credibility of the Central Bank is at stake. Does the Central Bank have what it takes to fight speculation and restore stability to our rupee?
