  • Seychelles 1 Introduction
    Seychelles 1 Introduction The Republic of Seychelles is an island nation off the east coast of Africa with a small population of just over 98 000 people, approximately 56% of whom live in an urban environment.1 Traders from the Persian Gulf have known the islands for centuries; however, the first recorded landing on the then-uninhabited islands was made by the British East India Company in 1609. France annexed the islands in 1756. Following a war between France and the United Kingdom, the islands were surrendered and officially ceded to the British by the Treaty of Paris in 1814. Seychelles became an official Crown Colony in 1903, having been a dependency of Mauritius until that time. In 1975, Seychelles became self-governing, and a coali- tion government was formed with President James R Mancham as president and France-Albert René as the vice-president. Seychelles was granted independence in 1976. In 1977, France-Albert René came to power as president in a coup d’état led by the Seychelles People’s United Party (renamed United Seychelles in 2018) and remained in power under the 1979 constitution which provided for a one- party state. Seychelles enacted a new constitution and held democratic elections in 1993,2 part of a wave of democratisation that swept the continent in the early to mid-1990s. In October 2020, Seychelles saw the first democratic handover of power from one ruling party to another since independence. The ruling United Seychelles party was defeated in the national election by the opposition party, Linyon Demokratik Seselwa,3 and Wavel Ramkalawan was sworn in as president on 26 October 2020.4 Seychelles is currently ranked 43rd in the world human capital index.

  • STATE of the NATION ADDRESS by PRESIDENT DANNY FAURE 6 March 2018
    STATE OF THE NATION ADDRESS BY PRESIDENT DANNY FAURE 6 March 2018 Mr Speaker, Leader of the Opposition, Leader of Government Business, Members of the National Assembly, I would like to start by congratulating you Mr Speaker on your election as the head of the National Assembly. It is my sincere hope that we can continue to work together for the good of Seychelles and the good of the Seychellois people. Congratulations to Honourable Ahmed Afif on your election as Deputy Speaker and Honourable Phillip Arissol as the elected representative of the district of Anse Boileau. Mr Speaker, Dear Seychellois brothers and sisters, It is a great honour, a pleasure, to address the Seychellois Nation and National Assembly today. On the first of January this year, as I walked along Cote D’Or beach at dawn, I met two people cleaning the beach. A father, and a little boy of just 9 years old. In my conversation with them, I was touched when the little boy told me that he enjoyed coming to work with his father to help him, and learn about his work. This is an illustration of the importance of values that parents can give their children from a very young age. These values are what weave the fabric of our community together. Family is the foundation of our society. The state of the nation depends on the state of our families, the state of our communities, and the state of our economy. Mr Speaker, as a people, we have worked together and together we are achieving a lot.
