Collendavelloo Whisked Away After Making Insensitive Remarks



That was in Barkly on Monday when he said that opposing parties could eventually sit around a square, round or oblong table but that he preferred one which is karé karé. As the clip shows no one on his side found that funny. The residents of Barkly present at the meeting were not in a laughing mood either. It couldn't have been otherwise when we know that some of them had just been through the traumatising experience of seeing their houses demolished. For the Lepep tram which we don't really need.

It's not exactly the first time the Minister makes controversial statements. He's the same politician who wants to privatise the CWA because he doesn't like its hotline

Agree that the Metro is not needed but let's assume land was required for another capital project like a bridge for making Mauritius more connected. Would we have sympathised with people who are expert at putting up drama? Notices had been served several months earlier by the way.

Probably not. Then again how many people will be able to buy a plot a land and build a house now with the real estate bubble that was initiated about a decade ago?

Ranini our Muay Thai World Champion who appears in the clip above has seen her request for financing of the participation of a local team to the World Championship next month denied by the authorities. Is this retaliation and/or another victim of the stupidity of the Sithanen flat tax?
