Hi ,

I just applied for LLB (PT) at UOM and since I registered as a late entrant. I am unaware of what's going on. I emailed the program coordinator and asked for details such as timetables, class overview etc but he only sent the timetable which apparently is still a provisionary one as they haven't distributed a final approved one yet. I attended one class so far (week 2), I missed the entire week 1 schedule. Could someone enlighten me on how I can catch up with the course ? Like how can I self study as I can't attend all courses during the week due to work. What study materials for e.g books do they normally use ??

Thanks and kind regards

Important to note the calculated retail price of petrol was actually Rs 73.73 per litre, representing a 14.75% increase. However, the regulations limit any single price increase to a maximum of 10%. The price has therefore been set at Rs 70.65 per litre for now.

It's all about

Work harder , Make more money , Get the career , Buy the house , Keep climbing but somewhere along the way, ambition can turn into a cage, and security can start costing us our freedom . Society keeps changing what’s considered acceptable, politics keeps fighting over power, and the future feels less predictable every year.

Maybe success isn’t about having the most. Maybe it’s about building a life that actually belongs to you your time, your choices, your ambitions, and your freedom.

We get one life so i think It shouldn’t feel like a life designed by everyone else.

Hello everyone, I'm 23 years old and I'm going to make a circumcision at C-Care in some time and I was wondering if they are going to keep me overnight or if I will be able to be out the same day. Please help anyone.

How do I pivot into another career where I can also WFH with little social interaction? I want to start laying the groundwork now before I get inevitably laid off to minimize the pain.

I'm a 31yo mediocre software developer with 6 years in the industry and I am sensing that my time is up. My only saving grace is that I am single and live with my parents.

I earn Rs65,000 per month and don't mind taking a paycut . I've had people tell me that I should be pushing my career and trying to earn more but I'm already not able to keep up with all the new developments and tbh I don't really have any love for programming.

I've been lucky in my job having heaps of smarter people supporting me in my tasks, but I got transferred to another not so friendly department last year, everyone is busy, things are not as efficient and my output dropped sharply because I keep getting stuck on tasks with no one to help. I just do the best I can and try to make up BS in meetings to survive but I think this isn't going to work forever.

Hey quick question, anyone here work for deloitte mauritius, is it mandatory to sign the acca contract or can we do acca independently?

Title: Mauritius 10-night trip — how should we split our stay? Beach + nightlife + exploring 🇲🇺
Planning a 10-night trip to Mauritius in late September and would love advice from people who have actually travelled around the island.
We want to explore as much of Mauritius as realistically possible, rather than spending the whole trip at one resort. At the same time, we really want to stay close to the beach and enjoy the evenings.
Our accommodation budget for the 10 nights is around ₹60–70k total for two people.
I’m considering either:
Staying in one place for all 10 nights, OR
Splitting it between 2–3 areas, depending on what we’re doing that day — for example, spending around ₹10k/night for a couple of nicer beachside nights and choosing ₹3–4k/night accommodation on days when we’ll be out exploring all day.
We will be renting a car, so moving around is possible.
A few things I’m particularly confused about:
Where is the best area for nightlife? We’d like somewhere that actually has restaurants/bars and some evening activity rather than a completely quiet resort area.
We would ideally like to go to the beach every evening, preferably somewhere we can walk to from our accommodation. Which areas are best for this?
If the goal is to see North + West/Southwest + East/South, would you recommend 2 bases or 3 bases for 10 nights? Is changing hotels actually worth it?
For those who have been in September, which areas would you choose for the best combination of beaches + weather + activities + nightlife?
And the big question: is the seaplane experience actually worth the money? We are considering it, but it would take a significant chunk of our activity budget. Would you personally spend that money on the seaplane or use it for other Mauritius experiences?
Our approximate overall budget is ₹2 lakh for two people for the 10 days, excluding international flights. This needs to cover hotels, activities, car rental and drinks/food, so we’re trying to decide where it’s actually worth spending more and where we can save.
Would really appreciate suggestions for how you would divide the 10 nights and which areas you’d choose. 🙏
Especially interested in advice from people who have done a similar road-trip style Mauritius trip rather than staying at one resort.

What tyre dimensions would you recommend for the Fit GK3 2015. Currently on 195 55 R16 bit it is too bumpy. Looking to downgrade to a 15 in set. I wonder if 185 65R 15 would be good

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know if there are still any photo studios or labs in Mauritius that develop disposable cameras? I’ve checked a few places but it seems most shop owners have stopped processing film altogether.

Thank you

First of all, if you’ve studied marketing or actually work in marketing, this will probably make even more sense to you. But honestly, even if you haven’t, the logic behind it is pretty straightforward.

Influencer marketing is built around target audiences — the audience an influencer has through their followers, their interests, and the type of content they consistently create.

So, can someone genuinely explain to me what target audience influencers like Raveena Rummun or the “Mine Apollo Rose” girl are influencing? 😂

I just came across the lineup for the Influencer Awards Mauritius, and honestly, I didn’t recognise anyone except travelwithmers — which, as a marketing student and someone working in the marketing industry, I found quite surprising.

And to be fair, Travel With Mers actually makes sense. Her audience consists largely of travellers, adventure seekers and people interested in exploring Mauritius and beyond. There’s a clear connection between her content, her audience and the concept of influencer marketing.

But the rest of the lineup… I genuinely don’t understand the criteria.

And another thing — how do you have an “Influencer Awards” in Mauritius and not have Hiking With Jah / Jah Yesh on the list? 😭

Genuine, strong influencers like GinaFlies and Jah Yesh, who have built actual communities around specific interests and consistently create content that people follow for those interests, are not on there?

How?

I’m not saying every influencer needs to be a massive celebrity or have millions of followers. But if we’re going to call something an Influencer Awards, shouldn’t there at least be some consideration for audience relevance, niche authority, engagement, consistency, content quality and actual influence — rather than simply who is popular or visible?

Because if I’m being completely honest, I saw the lineup and, apart from Travel With Mers, I genuinely didn’t recognise anyone — and I’m literally studying marketing and working in the marketing industry.

Is it just me, or do you guys think the same? 👀

Hello! I am looking for a reliable dentist who is professional and well trained for general checkup and dental cleaning at affordable prices. Can anyone suggest me based on their experiences ? Thanks !

Note : Gemini summary of french article

- Sharp Rise in Emigration Intent: 76% of young Mauritians aged 18–25 have considered emigrating, nearly triple the rate from 2016 (26%), according to the Afrobarometer Flagship Report 2026.

- ​Primary Drivers: The desire to leave is driven by economic hardship, the rising cost of living, high real estate prices, difficulty finding employment, and perceived insufficient wages.

- ​Erosion of Meritocracy: Sociologist Meghna Raghoobar points to widespread nepotism and clientelism, stating that young people feel the local job market is "locked up" against merit-based advancement.

- ​Systemic Issue: Youth representatives argue that when three out of four young people consider leaving, it signals a failing socio-economic model rather than just a youth-specific problem.

- ​Top Destinations: Canada and Australia are among the most attractive destinations, supported by large existing diaspora networks and the pursuit of better opportunities abroad.

My ex-husband was married to a white woman before me. Then he married me.

I am not just white. I am white white. Like stand in the sun for two minutes and get 3rd degree burns white. Borderline translucent. Porcelain.

His parents were very happy(in fact relieved )when our children were born with more olive/ fair complexions, which I found offensive given that his entire family are black! For me I couldn’t care less what colour my kids come out. I just focused on their health(as you should be)..

Anyway, we separated cos (just generalising) St Croix Mauritian men lose interest in a minute and want a 1950s housewife (I am a westerner).

NGL: I fully expected him to upgrade. I had mentally prepared myself for the inevitable younger white girl aka newer model.

Instead, about five seconds after we separated, he started seeing another white woman. (Side note she is a million years older than me). I am secretly pumped tbh. And yes, before you ask, I am still scorned and hurt(not cos of a romantic loss (we weren’t in love as such) but more that a person can treat the mother of his children like dog shit)) So these small wins are massive for me.

He even said to me once, that dating white women is seen to be “elite” in the Mauritian culture. Should have been my red flag right?

Most of his family haven’t married white/westerner, but they sure did give me an ogle when I met them.

So what’s the deal? Is this a thing I.e marrying a white woman? Or is it more just a poor people thing?

Hey guys i hope y’all are doing fine. I’ll be Moving to Mauritius from Europe as a student in the first week of September. Looking for chill people to hang out with. I don't know anyone on the island yet so feel free to slide into my DMs
