Alain St. Ange Launches His Book “My Journey – Life and Politics”
Victoria, Seychelles, February 18, 2025 / TRAVELINDEX /Today marks the launch of “My Journey – Life and Politics,” a compelling new book by political figure Alain St. Ange. The work chronicles the political evolution of Seyc helles, spanning from the nation’s early political formation, through the infamous Coup d’Etat, the transformative years leading up to independence, and the dramatic changes leading into the Third Republic.
In this detailed account, St. Ange provides unprecedented revelations about the events leading to the 1977 Coup, shedding light on previously undisclosed letters and insider information. The book reflects St. Ange’s dedication to unveiling the complex history of Seychelles’ political landscape, which he meticulously pieced together after years of archival research and interviews with key figures.
The launch event was attended by several members of the media, but the absence of the Seychelles Broadcasting Corporation (SBC) has raised eyebrows. The SBC’s decision not to cover the event has sparked speculation and raised concerns about media independence, especially as St. Ange is now a political candidate in the upcoming elections. This has led to discussions around the right to free speech and the role of media in Seychelles’ political discourse.
“My Journey – Life and Politics” is not only a personal memoir but a significant contribution to understanding the intricate political history of Seychelles, making it an essential read for anyone interested in the island nation’s past, present, and future.
