"If I Were the Christmas Minister..." - Malaika: "Without hesitation, I would lower the taxes on chocolate!"
On December 24, 2025, at 18:00, Le Dimanche Hebdo reported on an imaginary Ministry of Christmas Affairs that has opened in Albion, led by a sibling duo certified in Virgin Colada, chocolate, and wacky ideas: Malaika Phokeer and her little brother Keziah.
If you were the Christmas Minister, what would be your first law to make Mauritius happier?
"Without hesitation, I would lower the taxes on chocolate! Everyone deserves unlimited chocolate during the holidays. Just imagine: cheaper chocolate bars, hot chocolate everywhere, and even chocolate fountains in shopping malls! That would truly make Mauritius happier."
What would you change to ensure all children in Mauritius have a better Christmas?
"I would build a huge indoor ski resort with artificial snow and slopes for all skill levels. This way, even under the sun, we could ski, sled, and make snowmen. It would be the world’s first tropical frozen Christmas (laughs)."
One thing you would ban during the holidays?
"(Serious tone) Arguments. Banned, eliminated, gone! At Christmas, we should laugh, share, and forgive. If someone starts to quarrel, boom, a rain of peace glitter falls on them."
If you could give a magical gift to the entire island, what would it be?
"I would make it snow in Mauritius for just one day. Real soft snow that doesn’t melt too quickly. Kids could run around, make snow angels, and adults would turn back into kids. (Eyes wide open)"
A special guest for your ideal Christmas?
"(Fan attitude) I would invite the K-Pop stars Demon Hunters. All the teens would be over the moon! A Christmas concert K-pop style with choreography, lights, and confetti… It would be the greatest gift for an entire generation!"
