I wonder what we have to gain by strengthening ties with Seychelles. This is in a no mans land place with only 80,000 population.

What is benefit to the country from the participation of these people on this tour at the cost of public funds? Was there no better purpose to use this money?

A good team gone with MR. Hon Minister Mr Mervin Silva can teach some political tactics to She shells counter part. A few lessons would help theme to make Sheshells as SRi-Lanka.

80,000 population maybe. But offshore banking and companies are there in the millions. Very useful for the entourage now that the Singaporean cat is out of the bag!
