AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Sailing & Sport: SSL Gold Cup African and Oceanian Qualifiers kicked off on Lake Neuchâtel with Seychelles’ Vann Swet pushing early, battling seaweed, shifting winds, and tight startline drama before the race committee shortened the course. Public Broadcasting Governance: The Seychelles Broadcasting Corporation Bill is drawing serious pushback as the SBC board warns new appointment rules could weaken the broadcaster’s independence and tilt influence toward the Executive. Tourism & Culture at Home: Seychelles launched “Rediscover Seychelles – Your Islands. Your Escape” to boost domestic travel during the Golden Jubilee, spotlighting local heritage and island staycations. Arts & Education: Day of Slavic Writing and Culture was celebrated in Victoria with Seychelles Tourism Academy students performing Russian songs and a short scene, showing growing interest in Russian for the service sector. Regional Spotlight: Seychelles Tourism Board was reinstated and Vesna Rakic appointed CEO, aiming to strengthen long-term tourism strategy and promotion. Climate-Ready Homes: A study highlights “cool roofs” that can cut indoor heat by 3–4°C and improve sleep—relevant for island resilience conversations. Global Mobility: Sri Lanka rolled out free 30-day tourist visas for citizens of 40 countries (ETA still required), with Seychelles listed among reciprocal partners.
