The Seychelles Minister said that Seychelles and Mauritius have common cultural assets which should be put to forward.
“Seychelles hosts annually the Creole Festival, which showcases a melting pot of Creole-speaking cultures, whereas Mauritius has its own Creole Festival. We should decide how to now work together on these two festivals. It is important that both islands come together as a solid block to promote these Creole events and in doing so bring more visibility to the region.”
The Mauritian Minister of Arts and Culture has complimented the Seychelles Minister’s initiatives for cultural exchanges between the two islands and said that “Maurituis and Seychelles are two islands, two people with one common destiny,” and Minister St.Ange said that he was working to unlock the full cultural potential of the Seychelles.
The Mauritian Minister has agreed to work with his colleague, the Mauritius Minister responsible for Tourism, to see how the Mauritian culture and people can be showcased at the annual Carnaval International de Victoria that is held in Seychelles.
