It is obvious without any doubt that the Labour party is definitely making a gradual revival across the country. By basing on the report of their mass communication, proximity with the population, and their constant presence on the ground and in other strategic sites, we witness that in most of their meetings, congress and political functions the labour party has pulled large amount of crowds which in itself are signs and symptoms that the Labour party is moving ahead towards a genuine political progress
Let us face the reality. The Jugnauths won the 2019 general elections by default. Today we have a rubber stamp PM who is administratively controlled by his civil servants, and certain senior advisors before he takes a decision. As a PM Pravind Jugnauth CAN’T TAKE DECISIONS, he leaves everything to his advisors and civil servants to decide for him. This is how he functions as a PM unlike his father, SAJ who was a strong decisive PM. Pravind Jugnauth has already been regarded as a puppet PM in the hands of his senior advisor, the Financial Secretary. Plus the fact that he is under the directive of La kwizin.
Pravind Jugnauth is being given lots of exposure on the MBCTV, thinking that this will have an advantageous effect in his political career as a PM but he is greatly mistaken as this will create his downfall because the public hate this type of exposure.
All the time, this government keeps sweeping in the fore courts of their political opponents in an endeavor to so call cleaning the country but forget to sweep the dirt that is found in their own back yard. Since this government took power in 2019, we are left with the worst ‘bilan’ the country ever gets.
Nepotism and favoritism are well practiced by this government in their nominations in many key administrative posts. The constant arrogance of the Jugnauths, both father and son are to be deplored as they try to challenge any one that tries to oppose their so called philosophy and concepts in active politics. The country is heading towards bankruptcy. Mauritius is on the EU black list because of the incompetence of this government. There is no meritocracy today as 8000 university graduates find themselves without jobs. And yet the PM seems to ignore such a problem and keeps defending his Minister of Education, Mrs Dookun-Lutchmun who is a great “poids lourd”.
We have got today a begging bowl Prime Minister who relies too much on India for all sorts of financial help. Mauritius today is in debt up to the neck. All the line of credit given by India has to be refunded with interest by the tax payers. The country is heading towards bankruptcy.
This government is more or less helping the rich by making them richer where the gap between the rich and the poor keeps widening. Unemployment is gradually becoming a malaise in this country. Exact figures of unemployed people in this country are falsified and are not accurate just to deceive the population. The country is going to the dogs where we have shortage of water since donkey years in most areas of the country. In some part of the country, people have no electricity and live in absolute poverty.
The public are not at ease (except bootlickers and those who have been privileged to get something such as political nominations, state lands, or financial assistance) from this government. Did you know that the majority of the Muslim Community is no longer with the Jugnauth MSM since this government has downgraded the Rawat family and ruined the BAI enterprise? Besides, from my political observation, I am well placed to say that hardly any Muslim supports the Jugnauths. There are so many incompetent Ministers of the like Toussaint, Daureeawoo, Lutchmun and Hurdoyal in this government who do not know how to do their jobs apart from giving little favors to their mandate within their constituencies.
Today after nearly six years since the government is in power, we have more than 47,000 unemployed people, including over 8,000 university graduates. In certain areas in the East and West of the country there is a constant shortage of energy such as electricity and water. Some people in certain remote areas have no access to tap water. Prices in the shops and supermarkets are rocketing sky high where people can’t make both ends meet. The exorbitant rise of petrol and diesel, the forthcoming coming increase of the water and electricity bills are on the cards and what about the old age pension which will soon be probed and target for certain categories of people
The Minimum Salary Compensation and Negative Income Tax are just temporary bribes to pull the wool over the eyes of the population. It is a clever strategy of robbing Peter to pay Paul! Who will pay for the expenditure of the Metro Express? Just think how the government is crafty and clever how to dupe this population! Pravind Jugnauth is only good to blow his own trumpet that he is the savior PM against Covid 19 when we all know it is not the case. 10 people died which is too many for a very tiny population like Mauritius
In fact the future looks gloom and doom for the MSM.
