The Committee set up by President Danny Faure to consider and propose to him actions that could be undertaken to honour the memory of the late President James Mancham, met yesterday, Monday.

Members shared their thoughts on honouring the former Seychelles President in ways that would also contribute to promoting national unity. They also reviewed proposals received so far from members of the public.

The Committee expects to present its recommendations to the President Faure in March.

The other members of the Committee are Ms Simone de Comarmond, Dr Odile de Comarmond, Ms Laura Valabhji, Mr Paul Chow, Mr Julien Durup, Mr Dolor Ernesta, Mr Bernard Georges, and Mr Tony Mathiot.
