Le combat de Rezistans ek Alternativ contre la déclaration ethnique des candidats est très louable. Tous les citoyens responsables en conviennent.
Même les politiciens les plus roublards ne trouvent rien à redire, du moment qu’ils peuvent utiliser ce combat pour mettre au point une image impeccable d’eux-mêmes pour la consommation publique.

Par contre, la question du Best Loser System permet de construire pour l’avenir. Et plus les débats s’enlisent, mieux c’est pour ceux qui veulent participer à la grande représentation politique.

A cet égard, le raisonnement le plus bizarre, un pur exemple de sophisme, peut probablement être attribué Aadil Ameer Meea. Voilà un jeune député, à qui l’on prête volontiers des velléités progressistes et que l’on avait tendance à associer à Kee Chong Li Kwong Wing ou à Satish Boolell, pour leur capacité à ne pas s’embarrasser de la langue de bois.

Pour le député mauve de Plaine-Verte, le pays, après avoir utilisé un même système électoral pendant 40 ans — donc avec le Best Loser — « doit chercher à se renouveler » — évidemment avec le BLS !

Qui, pour lui, « a apporté une certaine cohésion sociale en assurant la représentativité des minorités au Parlement ». Pfffffff… Vraiment difficile de prendre ses distances de ce que dit Bérenger, quitte à perdre son âme.

Même s’il fait semblant de prendre à contre-pied son leader : « Je ne crois pas dans l’adage qui veut que le BLS mourra de sa belle mort à la longue, parce que nous ne connaissons pas l’issue des élections futures. »

Avec l’imminence des élections municipales et la nécessité de récupérer un électorat naguère acquis à la bannière mauve, Paul Bérenger se donne à cœur joie de remuer les sentiments d’insécurité, fondés ou non, des « minorités ».

Du coup, il oublie cette image qu’il voulait donner de lui-même le samedi 1er octobre 2011 quand il promettait de « secouer la baraque ». Ce jour-là, lors de sa conférence de presse hebdomadaire, il indiquait que samedi après samedi, il procéderait à « une dénonciation en règle des scandales qui conduisent Maurice dans une situation de pourriture généralisée ».

Représentation, disons-nous plus haut. Il s’agit surtout de s’assurer que rien ne vienne bouleverser l’ordre et l’équilibre d’un système politique qui permet de faire de grands discours creux et de continuer tranquillement à mener une riche carrière politique.

Un système qui permet aux élus des grandes formations politiques de faire la pluie et le beau temps.

Yusuf Mohamed, qui laisse sa longue carrière derrière lui, peut se passer de la langue de bois et dire crûment, dans l’édition du 29 janvier de l’express-dimanche, à quoi sert d’être un élu : « La représentation à l’assemblée, c’est quoi ? Des patentes de taxi, des licences commerciales, des emplois. Tout se joue là. L’Equal Opportunities Act, c’est du vent. »

@ChitChat et Uncle Starbright : I was not around then, but I have been told that Education became Free just before the 1976 Elections by SSR. Whatever the reasons and no matter how, the important thing is, we got Free Education. Prior to 1976, many students were deprived of Secondary Education because their parents could not afford the "School Fees" or " scolarite" as it was called in some quarters! My dad used to tell me that in his " college", there was a chap, with the title of Usher or something who used to "chase" boys ( not that type of chasing , you dirty mind Chitchat !!) with a catchphrase : "TU VINNE , TU VINNE PAS, IL FAUT QUE TU PAYE ( LA SCOLARITE). This Chap was also the College Discipline Master. My dad College was a Mixed Education College. Boys being boys, they would disturb the classroom all day by throwing " Missiles " at the Girls who as a rule were seated in the front of the Classroom. Mostly they used Peanuts as missiles. Apparently one day, a teacher refused to teach because the classroom was in a real state, littered with rubbish, so he called this Chap to get the classroom cleaned. The Chap came , had a look, and turn to the Boys and said in perfect Moliere French :" VOUS LES GARCONS , COMBIEN DES FOIS JE VOUS DIS NE METTEZ PAS VOS COQUE ET VOS GRAINES DERRIERE LES FILLES " !! He was referring to Peanuts , of course !! Of course, my Dad claimed that he only eat PISTACHES SALER, which has not got any " COQUES" !! wow !!! This was a different Mauritius than the one I am stuck in ! Still, I love it !!

@ Uncle Starbright : I may be the wrong person to ask about the Muslim Personal Law as they are possibly better suited or knowledgeable to speak on this subject. However, being a person who never turn down a challenge, I shall be more than happy to give it a try, albeit for the purpose of civilised and objective debate but above all, in our COMMON AND HONEST SEARCH FOR A BETTER MAURITIUS. I am sure those affected or not affected by the MPL, more than I do, will not mind as it will never be in my intention to hurt anyone or to promote hatred or encouraging discriminations within our institutions or in society at large. So, let me know , what specifically of the MPL, you would me to comment and I’ll oblige. But a word of caution dear Uncle: You may have more on your plate than you are able to chew! Now then, on a different note, you stated in the Rabin Bhujun’s Dieu et mon Fric! , “When I was a school boy, there was not even ONE government school in Rose Hill, Curepipe and some other places but just Catholic schools. I just want to remind you that our Catholic Primary schools , colleges and other institutions were built up on money collected every sunday masses.The Catholics have contributed for the education of every single pupil all over the island regardless his faith, colour or whatsoever.I myself went to " Notre Dame Des Victoires "in Rose Hill and the school standing there today was brand new in 1955 as the old one was demolished.”. Uncle Starbright, I fully appreciate the point you are trying to make but your “facts” simply don’t add up. Have you heard of the Royal colleges, both Port Louis and Curepipe? RCPL : existed as long ago as 1791 and became Royal College in 1813. RCC was founded in 1871. QEC ( Girls) founded in 1950. Roman Catholic schools have existed since French rule and were mandated under contract to deliver education on behalf of the 2 Colonial administrations (French and British), just as they were doing in France under the Concordat but were abruptly prevented to do so from 1905 with the Law of separation of State and Church. In Mauritius these schools had the designation RCA after their name: Roman Catholic Aided schools. The “AIDED” mean that they were NOT doing it for free but were getting paid for delivering the services, including grants for building new schools. For your information: In 1955 (the year mentioned in Rabin’s article), the Colonial Government were paying Religious subsidies and other grants ONLY to the Roman Catholic, the Anglican and Scottish churches, which prompted Bissoondoyal to raise and challenge this practice in the Legislative assembly. And as a result a Commission was appointed to look into the possibility of subsidizing Religions which were not being subsidized at the time. The Commission submits their report in October 1956 (see Sessional paper No.9 of 1956). The discriminatory practice thus came to an end. As example: in 1949, the subsidies to the 3 Churches were Rs 184,704 of which the roman Catholic received Rs130,316 and in 1955 the total subsidy was increased to Rs388,411 which prompted Bissoondoyal’s interest. As to whether today’s subsidies or grants meet Bissoondoyal’s objectives is open to debate. Or indeed whether socio-political organizations should be eligible for “Religious subsidies”, is another thorny question but journalists should come up with proper investigation into how these subsidies are used (whether or not they are being siphoned for political activities or indeed being paid as rewards for political services rendered.

The BLS is from the first constitution - Heard so many times the second republic by politicians!!!the BLS has historically been to safeguard the interest for minorities in the Mauritian republic....That was years ago- does a modern mauritius still need the BLS??? There should be Debate contest at Schools and Universities on the BLS- lets see what the next generation want? BLS - meritocracy - Gender equality- we have lived with BLS for 40years- now that there is a chance to make a change - this should definitly not be missed.

Who is taking us for a ride? Is it the MMM or the PM? In their passion for or against the BLS, people fail to realize that the PM is a playing a political gamemanship where he wins whatever the outcome. If the BLS is abolished,minorities might lose while the majority consolidates its grip on power. If the parties continue to disagree on the BLS, the PM would have an excuse not to proceed with electoral reform, which suits him as the FPTP system is more beneficial to a party in power able to strike a pre-electoral alliance, as we saw in 2010. The idealists are losing sight of the realpolitik of power in Mauritius.

@ Starbright : But Mauritius is not USA . We have our rules ( good or bad !). What is your obsession with the Mohameds and their community? Razak may have been born in India, but from the point of view of the Colonial Government, Razak Mohamed was a British subject just like Koenig, Ramgoolam , Bissondoyal or Rozmont and others. And as such there was no legal impediment against him taking parts in Mauritian Politics. He has been Mayor Of Port Louis 3 times before he founded the CAM with Mr Ajum Dahal. But only after a decade of involvement with the Conservative Jules Koenig. He stood as a candidate of Ralliement Mauricien of Jules Koenig in the 1953 Legislative Assembly election. He stood in Port Louis which had 4 seats. At the time there no organised Political Party except the Labour Party under Rozemont. All other candidates stood under what was then known as Groupement Politiques- Ralliement Mauricien (RM) was one of them, Union Mauricienne of Laurent and Rivet was another. Only Koenig and Mohamed were elected under RM. But there was a major political shift both in attitudes and on the ground. Mohammed secured the 4th seat in Port Louis with 6977 votes after the 3 Labour candidates ( Rozemont(7889) , Seeneevassen (7202) & Edgar Millien(7036). Alex Bhujoharry ( same RM as Mohamed) was defeated and came 5th with 6976 votes just one vote behind Mohamed. Jules Koenig, against all common sense, and from extreme pressure from the Creoles Elites( Laurent and Rivet) and the Franco conservatives, APPEALED AGAINST MOHAMED ELECTION !! YES MOHAMED WAS IN THE SAME GROUPEMENT RM AS KOENIG!! This was to sideline Mohamed in favour of Bhujoharry, a Creole , not quite Elite as the Laurents and the Rivets who aspired to be Whites! The appeal was carried out against a very angry Muslim electorates in the Capital. But on re-count Mohamed would increase his votes over Bhujoharry by 4, so now he was duly elected with a majority of 5 over his co-RM colleague Bhujoharry. This is how the first Muslim was elected in our Legislative Assembly and it gives us an appreciation of the level of communalism that existed at the time. Mohamed would be very disappointed with Koenig who up to that time , they were very close Political collaborators. Mohamed would gradually shift from the Conservatives to the Labour camp. He was already very close with Ramgoolam in the Municipal affairs having directed the strong Muslim votes in the Capital towards Ramgoolam and getting him elected as a Councillor. In parliament Mohamed would side with Ramgoolam and not Koenig who adopted a very pro-conservative position (in favour of the Sugar Barons). Notice that Koenig started political life as a moderate Liberal and progressive minded “Franco”- Mauritian lawyer of German Origin. In the 1959 Elections, Labour and CAM( recently created ) Ramgoolam would face a very strong challenge from Beedassy, a Bissoondoyalist IFB candidate in Triolet. The small but significant Muslim Votes in Triolet would be the determining factor. In the beginning, the Triolet Muslims were backing Beedassy on advise of their Local Community Leader Mr Nisar Khan, a Pathan Muslim ( possibly a Kokni). Mohamed leaving his safe seat ( Plaine Verte ) and went to Triolet to help Ramgoolam against Beedassy. He stayed at Nisar Khan’s place and took no time to persuade Khan to shift his allegiance to Ramgoolam. The following day , Khan was on the same podium when Ramgoolam was giving his speech at the 9th Mile Govt School at the Labour Rally, when someone from the crowd threw a stone at Ramgoolam. Khan in a quick moment of bravado, swiftly moved in front of Ramgoolam and took the stone right in his ( Nisar’s) face and blood was spilling all over. Khan not only saved Ramgoolam from injuries and political embarassment but from that moment all the Muslim votes turns to Labour and Ramgoolam was easily elected . The rest is history in terms of the CAM/Labour Alliance leading the 1967 Independence elections. So Dear Uncle Starbright, hope this short glance into our Political history would help and cure your fixation on the Mohameds and their Community.

@ MBCTV...The " Best Loser System" should be abolished to stop being the worst losers of this world. Even we should respect the opinion of each other, we cannot accept a system which is unjust and antidemocratic. Human rights should be equal for all, not considered as properties to be divided proportionally as most communities are related to their ancestral values.

According to the constitution of the United States of America "No Person except a natural born citizen shall be eligible to the office of President."I wonder what it's written in the Mauritius constitution?.Mr Abdul Razak Muhamed an Indian born founded the CAM and in 1969 he proposed " The Muslim Personal Law."I wonder when or if he ever became a Mauritian citizen by naturalization but anyway his country of birth was splitted into 2 parts in 1947 and the partition should have never made any impact over Mauritus.The Muslims and the Hindus were Indian brothers when they came to Mauritius for a better life until the division of India and that's why we are struggling with the BLS. I guess that sometimes in 1930s Mr Abdul Razak Muhamed became a Mauritian citizen by law otherwise he would have never been allowed to form a political party.

Je suis aussi très déçu par la position d’Ameer Meea sur le sujet de BLS et surtout des raisons qu’il avance. Certains députés musulmans veulent bien garder le BLS afin de pouvoir être repêchés comme député (et même devenir ministre) même s’ils sont rejetés par les électeurs – cela leur promet un bel avenir même âpres leur date d’expiration comme représentant du peuple. Quant à Sik Yuen, je me demande s’il est vraiment le ‘méchant’ qu’on le décrit. Il semble qu’il n’a fait qu’utiliser la définition de la constitution qui dit que s’il ne se reconnait pas comme vivant un way of life d’un sino-mauricien ou d’un musulman ou d’un hindu, alors il est de la population générale. Qui a l’autorité de définir le way of life d’un mauricien ? Sik Yuen n’a fait que démontrer l’absurdité de diviser la population en groupes illogiques. Puis-ce que la majorité des groupes dites « minoritaires » vivent dans les villes ou il n’y a pas le BLS pour les élections municipales. Pourquoi personne ne se plaint de sous-représentation des minorités au niveau de ces élections ?

Same questions to A A Meea that I put to YM :. why has everybody fail to see blatant contradictions in some of YM statements: BLS guarantee non- communal Riots !! Does it ? In 1968, his Father became among the first recipient of BLS MPs ( actually Minister as well) after it was introduced in the 1967 Elections following an amended Banwell ( by Stonehouse) proposition. So even though we had BLS in place in 1967, it did not prevent Communal Riots in January 1968. But most importantly, the Riots took place between 2 so-called Minorities ( as per Trustram-Eve definition) , the Creoles and the Muslims in Roche Bois and Plaine Verte respectively. Two areas that voted emphatically for the same Party, the PMSD months earlier in August 1967 ( de surcroit rejecting Abdul Razack Mohamed ( Yusuf's Father) in favour of a Chinese ( Jean Ah Chuen). It is significant (fortunately for us) to point out that the Riots did not spill to other areas , neither dragging other communities into it. So Mr YM, explain to us, the connection between BLS and Riots of 1968? My other question to YM: What guarantee ( in numbers or in manner) do the BLS provides your community since 1967 since a far bigger number of Muslims have been elected hailing from all Parties through the Block of 3 candidates system and went on to become Ministers and even DPM ? However I must admit you are right about the PMalways being a Vaish only or appointments in the Police force, PSC etc, because these practices reduce non- Vaish or non-Hindus as SECOND CLASS CITIZENs. You are also right about the dangers to Society as a whole and not only to Minorities, if we have a PM with extreme inclinations ( as per the example given by YM). However, retaining the BLS in its present form does very little against such dangers.

Devant la levee des boucliers de principaux representants des associations socio-religieuses lors du forum au centre Dr I. goomany, tous les orateurs(politiques) ont hesite a prendre a contre pied la tendance affichee. Shakeel Mohamed en voulant reconcillier les opinions exprimees avec le point de vue de son leader en avait fait les fraits. Comme quoi entre l'ideal et la realite du terrain, les politiques n'ont pas toujours une marge de manoeuvre appreciable. Adil Ameer Meea, un fidele de la Mosquee Shane-rassool depuis son enfance ou l'Imaan est le tres influent Maulana Haroon Assen, se doit de bien veiller ou il met les pieds. Comme je l'ai dit ailleurs, la reticence de nombre de musulmans decoule du fait qu'ils n'ont plus confiance et dans les politiques et dans le syteme, pour avoir ete ostracises dans tous les secteurs de la vie. Une tenace perception, certes, qu'aucun pouvoir n'est parvenu a disssiper. Les musulmans ne demandent qu'a etre convaincus par des faits, pas par de rhetoriques, qu'ils ne courent pas des risques d'etre broyes. La prudence d'Adil Ameer Meea, apres les mesaventures de son collegue Shakeel, est comprehensible. Si la proportionnelle est, enfin des comptes, introduite et parvient a prouver son efficacite en permettant a notre auguste assemblee de refleter la pluralite tant d'opinions et d'appartenances, alors la reticence s'estrompera chez les minorites avec les nouvelles generations montantes. 'Mort de sa propre mort' est une expression mal inspiree.
