At 10h56 today, Mauritius had reached the goal of collecting 25,000 signatures to help return the Chagossians home. There was a gigantic surge yesterday: probably more than 10,000 people signed. This compares to a worrying 400 that was collected on March 27. The 25,000th person is one Oomesh L.

Olivier's enthusiasm is tempered by Rudy's realism.
But again, bravo to all Mauritians.
Wai. Zot retur kav prosed par etap usi. En plis Pentagon pe ferm enn pake baz a traver le mond a koz kupur bidzeter. Ferm Diego usi.
Wai, enn lespes 'windfall consequence' dett piblik... Extra ha hein?
And we now learn that the British should be handing back Diego to us in 2016?
Lalit pe ofer bann nians interesan.
Dans Le Mauricien, ena nuans pro ek anti-petition. "Advocacy journalism" responsable?
Bravo for the willingness to make a difference
Minus the bravo for not having thought of the implications first
I understand from what LALIT said and an article in week-end a couple of weeks back that
this didnot explicitly demand Mauritian sovereignty
moreover
I can't imagine US forfeiting not just the investment but a strategic base which may be a determining factor in many respects in view of China, India(let us say US is a "caparate which changes lichien" too) and middle east.
At least Mtius should earn billions in terms of rent instead of UK
I have a dream... Uh oh, if all superpowers are increasingly prone to spit in the face of international law, then it's a growing nightmare.
Nice gift eh?
Hopefully this will inspire Chindia.
Alright, we are going somewhere now! But there may be huge disillusions about any future restitution if any...
According to which logic can UK send its own passport holders to Jamaica, but not Chagossians...?
