Seselwa avan Tou !

It has taken a nasty infectious virus like Covid19 to start giving Seychelles back to the Seychellois.

Our pleas and demands for better job and career opportunities for our people in the Tourism industry had fallen on deaf ears.Even our own Ministry of Employment and Immigration Department have been tolerating the likes of Ephelia Resort to stop the Seychellois climbing up the ranks of the Hotel industry.

As the elite of our society swirled their heads in the dizzy heights of the glamorous 5-star resorts and high society the rest of the Seychellois were becoming poorer as each day went by.

On Wednesday 29th July our prayers and constant knocking were finally heard when Cabinet decided to cancel all GOPs for Tourism industry staff who are still outside the country, and call for fresh applications for work permits.We are not against foreign workers; far from it, we embrace them for their contribution to our country’s development.But we are against abuse and against the arrogance of their bosses and management. Now we urge our Seychellois workers to seize this opportunity and be counted.This is a God-sent opportunity to take back Seychelles and put the train back on the right track as we move into the new future.
