  • “THE PROMOTION of CRUISE TOURISM in the INDIAN OCEAN” Col
    “THE PROMOTION OF CRUISE TOURISM IN THE INDIAN OCEAN” Col. Andre Ciseau, Secretary General, PMAESA 1 WHAT IS THE “VANILLA ISLANDS”? The ‘Vanilla Islands’ is a marketing concept that was created in 2010. Tourism professionals agreed that the promotion and development of Reunion, Mauritius, Madagascar, Seychelles, Comoros and Mayotte as a tourist destination could only be achieved through the pooling of resources and expertise. ‘Vanilla’, a natural gastronomic ingredient commonly shared by the islands of the Indian Ocean was ideally chosen to launch a brand that would help build the notoriety of these destinations and promote them internationally. THE CONCEPT OF THE “VANILLA ISLANDS” The Concept was a major tourism challenge set by representatives (tourism professionals) of countries of the Indian Ocean. The “Vanilla Islands” project aimed to pair up the islands; by uniting and enhancing the assets of the islands countries for a shared tourism development. This not only allowed for the creation of new products (combined destinations and cruises) complementing those already existing but also to meet the expectations of new customers. THE VANILLA ISLANDS MEMBERS Reunion - The Accessible Magic…. Seychelles – The unique archipelago of 115 islands.. Madagascar – One of the richest fauna of the world… Comoros – A piece of heaven at the heart of the Indian Ocean… Mayotte – A stunning lagoon to see.. Mauritius – A tropical paradise… INITIATIVE & OBJECTIVE OF VANILLA ISLANDS? REINFORCING AND FACILITATING COUPLINGS Initially, to strengthen tourism initiatives (transport and partnerships) which already exist between the islands and facilitate the implementation of bilateral initiatives between the others. The objective – to make the multi-faceted diversity of the Indian Ocean more dynamic.

  • Role of Eu and India in Nurturing the Vanilla Islands As an International Tourist Destination
    APPROACH PAPER FOR THE “TWINNING INITIATIVE” ROLE OF EU AND INDIA IN NURTURING THE VANILLA ISLANDS AS AN INTERNATIONAL TOURIST DESTINATION Commander (Dr) Sibapada Rath Research Fellow, National Maritime Foundation A brief outline Out of the 54 Small Island Developing States (SIDS) present in the world, six are located in the South-Western Indian Ocean area known as the Vanilla Islands. The significance of the Vanilla Islands, a group of vanilla-growing island states in the South Western Indian Ocean consisting of Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mayotte (overseas region of France), La Reunion (overseas region of France) and Seychelles, has once again grown in recent years. The strategic importance of these islands is due to the fact that they sit astride vital Sea Lines of Communication (SLOCs) linking Africa and the Southern oceans with the West Asia, the Indian Subcontinent and East Asia (see map 1). The geographical position of these islands along the SLOCs between Europe and the Indian Ocean via south of the Cape of Good Hope places them as the first possible stop for navies seeking an early replenishment and R&R halt for their crew. This aspect also posits these islands as possible power projection points in the IOR. Choke Point (Mozambique Channel) and SLOCs India Sri Lanka Seychelles Maldives Comoros Mayotte Reunion Madagascar Mauritius Map 1: The Vanilla Islands, Choke Point and the SLOCs Source: Author After the commissioning of the Suez Canal in 1869 the merchant traffic via the Cape of Good Hope had reduced. , and therefore, the strategic importance of these islands diminished over a period of time.

  • Seychelles Big 5 Musicians Launch Their First Performance to Prepare Their Coming 2014 Tour of the Indian Ocean Vanilla Islands Region
    SEYCHELLES BIG 5 MUSICIANS LAUNCH THEIR FIRST PERFORMANCE TO PREPARE THEIR COMING 2014 TOUR OF THE INDIAN OCEAN VANILLA ISLANDS REGION In the presence of Minister Alain St.Ange, the Seychelles Minister of Tourism and Culture and his PS, Ms Benjamine Rose, the big names in the Seychelles Music scene informed the press on their planning for a tour of the region, before they venture further afield to the African mainland and then on to Europe. The “Seychelles Big 5” group is set to start promoting their regional tour due to be held in some Indian Ocean countries namely Mayotte, Comoros, Reunion, Mauritius and Madagascar in July next year. The group was officially launched on Wednesday in a press conference organised by the Ministry of Tourism and Culture. “Seychelles Big 5” is a group engaging five of Seychelles well known artists: Sandra Esparon (originally from Dezil), Jean Marc Volcy, Joseph Sinon, Elijah (Stephen Eliza) and Patrick Victor. All these artists have performed in one or more neighboring countries, and most of them are well known individually for their music and performances in the countries where they have presented their production. It will be the first time though that they will all be seen on stage in one concert where they will be performing some of their best hits, and new singles. Minister Alain St.Ange who is giving his full support to the project said to the press that his office will follow them closely, and providing logistical support in various countries where they will be visiting, networking with other countries and airlines to ensure the smooth running of their programme during their travels.

  • India and the Strategic Salience of the Vanilla Islands
    December 2014 19 January 2021 India and the Strategic Salience of The Vanilla Islands Raj Mittal FDI Associate Key Points To better mould the region’s strategic environment in its favour and as a resident power in the Indian Ocean region , India needs to engage with the island states of the south-western Indian Ocean: Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mayotte, Réunion and Seychelles . Known as the Vanilla Islands, the group abuts maritime chokepoints and busy Sea Lines of Communication (SLOCs), giving it enhanced strategic importance. For China, the importance of Brazil, South Africa and the rest of Africa as sources of commodities and oil is ris ing and vessels travelling to China transit the chokepoints and SLOCs around the Vanilla Islands. Consequently, those chokepoints and SLOCs gain prominence in India’s strategic calculus. India’s formal entry in the south-west ern Indian Ocean region has been facilitated by France. With France’s support, India joined the francophone Indian Ocean Commission (IOC) in March 2020. In a setback to India, however, the newly-elected President of the Seychelles, Rev. Wavel Ramkalawan, indicated that the Seychelles-India agreement to develop a naval base on Assumption Island would not go ahead. India urgently needs to engage with the new government of Seychelles. Summary The group of islands in the south-western Indian Ocean, comprising the Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mayotte, Réunion and Seychelles, is known as the Vanilla Islands; ‘the term Vanilla is used because these countries are known for their export of the flavouring substance, vanilla.’ India perceives the Vanilla Islands to be in its sphere of influence.

  • A Concept for Branding and Promotion of the Indian Ocean
    Paul Moore Constellation Aviation Consulting Ltd Air Seychelles have stopped long haul flights and The Gulf carriers Qatar, Etihad and Emirates now have a firm foothold in the region through the Seychelles. The first of the Super Connectors, Emirates has arrived in Mauritius, there are other Gulf Airlines who may well show up soon in Mauritius. MK is making great inroads into China. The Gulf carriers open up not only China but also India and Japan. Two centre holidays remain expensive. Comparisons with other groups of Islands show that the availability of two centre holidays influences tourists choice of a destination and two centre tourists spend more. This has been a “desk top” study, based only on publicly available information, We have not conducted any polling or focus groups, but we have taken some informal soundings from our industry contacts, We have not discussed our findings with any airlines, tour operators or other travel industry representatives in the region, It may be necessary to address capacity and/or pricing issues before implementing any new branding concept. Five carriers are domiciled in the COI region. 16 foreign carriers operate into the region. All carriers operating within “old fashioned” restrictive ASA agreements - these restrictive ASA agreements (once common worldwide) create and maintain inflated air fare levels. Many foreign carriers are operating under non- competitive code share and revenue pooling agreements.
