Meet The Great Communicator

That's how the late Ronald Reagan was dubbed for being so good at getting his message across. Navin Ramgoolam is like that too. We saw that again on Saturday morning. He delivered another almost perfect press conference. For sure he does what great artists do. Still, his main opponents, Pravind and Paul, are not only light-years behind: listening to any of their press conferences could reduce your brain cells by half. And given that Berenger holds one every week no wonder then that the MMM has been brain-dead for so long. Which would also explain why it hasn't changed strongman in the last forty-three years. Despite having lost so many elections. Despite liking to brag about having a lot of talent within its ranks.

Ramgoolam of course cannot get a lot better talking to us. So that the only way he could be remembered as a better Prime Minister than SAJ is to end his seven-year old economic policies of putting 1% of the people first.

Wow, an actual 'relative' compliment. Even though it's relative its still significant!

Might be hanging around in here more, not because I expect more - Kav atan ek labuzi rouz sa. Simply because you're a pretty good newsfeed(not filled with useless garbage).

He is a good 'passeur sirop' with his usual charming smile.This doest not make him a good PM. What has labour achieved for MRU in 12 years of power under his leadership?

"Good Passeur sirop" is another name for Great Communicator. His first 5 years were mediocre but not toxic. Since 2005 it has been toxic with a few good moves here and there. SAJ hasn't been a terrific PM. Navin can do better only if he scraps the Paglanomics and start working as he ought to.

@Anonymous: Yeah, haven't been dishing out a lot of compliments to the PM. When he will earn them he might a get a few. For sure he has earned all the katyushas I've deployed so far.

Another analysis of the speech misses Navin's smile... Mé, dan tou siro ki li konn passé, péna batt ça siro-la!
