[Evening News]: "We Can Denounce"

[Evening News]: "We Can Denounce"

Summary for Tuesday, April 28, 2026:

It's a silent poison that destroys lives. In Mauritius, harassment and workplace violence remain a heavy, deeply entrenched taboo. While many suffer in silence, the figures from the Ministry of Labor speak volumes: hundreds of cases reported in just one quarter.

On the social front, preparations for Labor Day are ramping up. The ministry plans several days of mobilization, including wreath laying, citizen meetings, and a grand concert in Port-Louis.

Rodents, cracks, and suffocating heat for storing vital supplies. The Public Accounts Committee, chaired by Adrien Duval, has made a clear observation: the management of warehouses in Plaine Lauzun and New Grove is failing. The result: a loss of 200 million rupees over three years. The PAC demands a complete overhaul.

The cost of your electricity bill made headlines this morning in the National Assembly. The issue: the premiums paid by the CEB for importing heavy fuel oil. Opposition leader Joe Lesjongard is concerned about a massive cost increase, while Minister Sik Yuen mentioned ongoing discussions without providing guarantees on freezing prices.

It's time for the giants of the sea to depart. With winter approaching, the cruise ships are leaving Port-Louis with record numbers. Paradoxically, the conflict in the Red Sea has benefited Mauritius, making it a strategic stopover for rerouted ships.
