If ever you want to know why we do not have a local circus in Mauritius, it is because we have extremely talented performers locally. Find out who is who.

The Driver

If only we could have guessed that we would have a Bollywood Playboy in the Aston Martin driving seat!

If his Aston Martin driving skills are anything to compare with his driving this country, we are in for a rough ride and a lot of bangs!

The Eavesdropper

God gave him two remarkable ears, and like all men, he was not satisfied. He had to get the apparatus that lets him hear others’ telephone and other conversation all around him!

Now, he says the apparatus is to detect others’ ears around him! Is he really that important that he has to take on the tasks and responsibility of the Police?

The Gambler

Oh Rama, Dear Rama! Rama is God’s name and what don’t we do in, or rather with His name!

There was, last year, a certain Rama of the ill-fated Horse Racing secret CD who remained uncaught because of a ‘super virus’!

This year we were witness to the fabulous luck in the destiny of the wife of another well known Rama. She was shown leading her winning horse to the paddock. The same Husband Rama claimed last year he did not know the difference between the head and the tail of a horse.

Does God only favour the rich when there is Money to be got?

The Trader

No wonder he got a Doctorate. Everything he touches disappears!

He should be a Magician of world caliber!

We have seen examples with iron bars, cement, milk and a host of other products we commonly use.

What is even more remarkable is the way and the price at which the objects reappear.

Within less than two and a half years, the price of milk has doubled. Same for grains and pulses, canned fish, rice and other staple foods of the less fortunate people..

The Book seller

We still don’t know if he is a book writer or a Book seller. Apparently he wrote a French text book some years back and left the book to mature for a number of years. Once at maturity, the book must have impressed some people.

By coincidence, his Education colleague made sure it was impressed onto the list of prescribed books for secondary schools. He even made it easy for the independent book selection committee by writing the tile down for their benefit!

The Butcher

He is a guy who knows only his books. He has carved up the economy so much that he chopped the fingers of many budding Entrepreneurs in the process. Boy! Does it hurt!

One now pays Income and other new taxes on everything we do. This is what he calls a new paradigm in Finance!

The Road Maker

After having successfully managed to inaugurate the Rose-Hill Vandermeersch link road built by the previous MSM MMM lot, he has just made plans on plans on dreams.

We have spent so much precious money on plans for a light railway, a bus lane, a third highway lane, a Dream bridge, a traffic-less Caudan and so on.

Plans, plans everywhere and so little done!

He has had the time to asphalt and survey the Curepipe-Quartier Militaire road THREE times, yet has not said what he did with the money of the 2005-06 Budget allocated to upgrading the said road. To hell with the congestion and daily problems of road-users!

The Bumper

She is well known for bumping into things she should have known and for bumping into other “ghost’ scandals.

It is accepted world wide and also locally that handicapped people have their place in society. Big enterprises have a legal obligation to employ up to 3% handicapped people. She bumps into handicapped people who receive Invalid pension and a small salary and cries out scandal…. Until her officers say it is normal to help a severely handicapped person willing to work….

She then bumps into welfare payments and cries out scandal there too, until her officers say it is all legal.

She lately bumped into ‘overpayments of millions of rupees monthly and adds that this practice started in 1996. (Guess who was PM at the time?)

Now, she says it is all ok and an accountant error!

Wonder what she will bump into next. As we say, anything just to hear her voice on TV or radio…..

Some more in the near future. Bye Guys!
