The Czech Republic's fifth ambassador to Seychelles, Mr Marek Libřický, presented his credentials to President James A Michel at State House Tuesday.

The two countries are seeking ways to strengthen their bilateral cooperation, notably in the fields of education, training, investment and training.  

Ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary Libřický told the national media after meeting President Michel that during his mandate he would look at "what more the two countries can do together".

Increased cooperation in education, possibly between the University of Seychelles and Czech universities, featured high in the State House discussions.
