MP Victim of Protocol Faux Pas

That happened on Thursday during a function organised for India's President. MP Aurore Perraud broke down when she was denied the red carpet and a seat, at least initially, with fellow MPs.

Some people have been quick to say it's because of her braids and have reduced the matter to a race issue. Just like they waste little time to accuse us Mauritians of disliking both Paul Berenger and Rama Sithanen not because we disagree with their regressive plans for our country but because we have a serious problem with their skin colours. That even though these two politicians don't exactly have the same skin pigmentation.

I rather think that people may genuinely not know Ms Perraud because she's way too quiet in the Parliament and she's been there for only one year. Bet you that the Passport Office has a solution to prevent these kind of incidents from happening again.
