Mr. Philippe Le Gall Ambassador of the Republic of Seychelles Mr. WEIWU Yang, Vice-President of Shanghai Normal University, President of Shanghai Institute of Tourism, Mr. JUN Gao, Vice President of Shanghai Institute of Tourism, Distinguished professors and members of SIT’s faculty. Dear students, Good Morning and Happy New Year! First, I would like thank Vice President WEIWU Yang for his warm welcome and words of introduction, on behalf of Shanghai Normal University and Shanghai Institute of Tourism. Thank you for having invited me to give this lecture. Then, I would like to congratulate you, all of you Dear Students, for having decided to start a career in tourism as it is the economic sector with the fastest and most impressive development nowadays. Acording to the UN’s World Tourism Organization, China will be the world’s fourth largest source of outbound tourists by 2020 with more than 100 Million people traveling outside China and it is already the 3 rd most visited country in the world with nearly 60 Million tourists from abroad. So you chose a sector in which there will be very little unemployment in the future and a brilliant and prosperous future for ambitious educated young men and women. Congratulations for having adopted this “go-getter” attitude. I know the excellent reputation of Shanghai Institute of Tourism so I am convinced that you are the right people studying the right subject at the right time at the right place! ● Today, instead of starting by a presentation on Seychelles eco-friendly tourism during the last 40 years I would like to show you first a promotional CD/DVD, as images are often more convincing than speeches! CD/DVD Well….now we are back in Shanghai.

We are blessed to be based in the great global intersection that is Dubai, less than four hours from the Maldives, four-and-a-half to Sri Lanka and the Seychelles, and just six-and-a-half hours to Mauritius, which makes a long weekend a realistic option in any. These four island nations are the stars of this year’s Indian Ocean special. If you haven’t yet been to Sri Lanka, I urge you to go now. Brimming with culture, ancient history, spice-laden cuisine, tea plantations and wildlife, there are plenty of five-star hotels and resorts, though writer Danae Mercer discovers culture, authenticity and heritage in the island’s beautiful boutique hotels (page 54) as she explores the southern coastline. Mauritius is another island blessed with a melange of culture, which has intertwined over the years to form an identity all its own. I suggest spending longer than four days exploring this exotic African isle because there’s a crazy amount to see and do, from street food and cultural tours in Port Louis to diving, hiking and kitesurfing, and of course, knockout beaches and immaculate resorts (page 62).

    AFRICA-EUROPE COOKBOOK | 1 With the Compliments of the European Union Delegation to the African Union Manuscript completed in July 2019 Those who have had the privilege of travelling to our two continents have been struck by the vast diversity that 1st edition can be observed in the culture and ways of living within Africa and Europe. This diversity is a source of richness. Without it, as human beings our lives would be significantly limited, less meaningful. Those who are engaged daily in the relationship between Africa and Europe see diversity as an attraction, not a challenge. It is our profound belief that diversity is something to celebrate and to build on, and it drives our commitment to this relationship. Neither the Delegation of the European Union to the African Union nor any person acting on behalf of the European Culture in general and food in particular are essential elements of this diversity. When we travel, whether for Union is responsible for the use that might be made of the following information. leisure or business, most of us are keen to experience the local food and restaurants.
