PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
You must have welcomed the New Year in a fitting way and in the true Mauritian
tradition.
I wish you, though belatedly, the very best for 2014 and hope
that well have a fruitful year ahead as fruitful and
rewarding as 2013, which has been a very eventful year for
the ESU.
I assumed responsibilities as President of the ESU in June last at a critical period, as we
were, in the ensuing months, fully involved in planning and organizing a series of
activities to mark our 20th Anniversary. These culminated in September in two important
events, namely our being associated with the staging of Shakespeares play A MidSummer Nights Dream by The Troupe and Charles Telfair Institute. This was followed
by an enriching debate in the MBC studio and it is hoped that such an event will become
a regular annual feature. We also propose to contact the Mauritius Broadcasting
Corporation so as to get full coverage for two important events, namely the Public
Speaking Competition and the Spelling Bee. I do not propose to again enumerate the
other events held during the year, through they are no less important. These had
sufficient coverage in the speech which I gave at our Annual Dinner and which is
reproduced in this issue.
We shall in 2014 certainly consolidate on the regular events held at school level,
inclusive of the Commonwealth Essay Competition. However, stress will be laid on
innovation to cater for other age groups as well. The English Language Day will become
a yearly event and will be celebrated on the 23rd April, which is the date of the birth of
William Shakespeare. We also hope to enlist the help of the Mauritius Commercial Bank
and see how it could further support us.
We will pursue our efforts to upgrade teachers of English both at local level and
overseas, through the facilities provided by the United States Embassy and courses in the
United Kingdom through scholarships. It is imperative that we forge further links with the
outside world for closer global understanding through mainly the ESU Head Office at
Dartmouth House, London, which already hosts the finals of the International Public
Speaking Competition and enables our national winners to meet others from many parts
of the world. It will hopefully renew the Cultural Globe Seminar and the International
Relations Conference, in which some teachers have already participated. Mauritius
should henceforth also make it a point to be officially and regularly represented at the
ESU International Council Meeting and interact with other ESUs across the world.
The ESU has certainly carved itself a niche in the education sector in Mauritius. Our
membership, especially among teachers, is now increasing, whereas more outside bodies
and institutions are having recourse to our services and collaboration for various literary
activities, competitions and upgrading of teachers. This is an encouraging trend!
Another challenging year lies ahead of us. As usual, we are
grateful to all those who support us in our noble mission of
Creating global understanding through English. We are
confident that we can rely on their unstinting efforts.
With kind regards,
A. Prem Burton, CSK,

THE ENGLISHSPEAKING UNION

PAYS TRIBUTE TO
NELSON MANDELA,
FORMER PRESIDENT OF
SOUTH AFRICA, WHO
PASSED AWAY AT THE
AGE OF 95 ON
THURSDAY 5/12/13
When the sun shines, the stars are not seen. One such
luminous twinkling star has disappeared from the galaxy.
Yes! Some say The Gandhi of South Africa, the Dalai
Lama, the legend of mankind, the God-sent messiah, an
inestimable gift of God to humanity Nelson Mandela
who passed away at the age of 95 after accomplishing
his sacred mission on the planetary earth.
The life of Nelson Mandela speaks volumes. A few
minutes, hours or weeks will not suffice to assess his
immense contribution and the sacrifice he has made for
mankind. Let us together analyse one aspect of his His
vision for a better South Africa.
However, Nelson Mandela, that unique personality, after

his liberation, nursed no retaliation. A common man would
have been vindictive an eye for an eye, a tooth for a
tooth, blood for blood
In his inaugural speech, as the first black President of the
democratic South Africa, he emphasized the reconciliation
between Blacks and Whites, create a new society, a
model of racial harmony, peaceful co-existence and unity
in diversity. Why? Like Gandhi, he also believed in
Ahimsa Non Violence (Ahimsa Parmo Dharma).
Coming generations from the four cardinal points from
North to South, East to West, from Japan to Jamaica,
from Durban to Delhi would wonder whether such a man
ever lived on this planetary earth.
May his soul rest in peace!
Ganesh Rampat
Member of the Executive Committee, ESU-Mauritius
Former South African President and anti-apartheid

icon Nelson Mandela: the man who changed the
course of history
1)
National enfranchisement for one and all

irrespective of race, colour, class, caste and religious
denomination.
Nelson Mandela was the architect of South Africas

transformation from racial despotism to liberal
democracy, saving his country from civil war.
2)
Bring and end to the manacles of segregation and

the chain of discrimination.
He became the first black president of South Africa in

1994, serving until 1999. A symbol of global
peacemaking, he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993.
3)
He wanted a South Africa where people would be

judged, not by the complexion of the skin, but by the
content of their character.
South African president Jacob Zuma addressed his nation

in a televised address:
4)
That South Africa, where the son of the black may

say This is my South Africa, the son of the white
would be proud to say This is my South Africa, and
both the black and the white would proudly say This
is OUR South Africa.
5)
Create such a society in which South Africans would

say Black in not beautiful, White is not beautiful.
What goes beyond colour is beautiful.
6)
A South African society in which the sons of the

blacks would lift from the quick sand of racial
injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.
In his unflinching endeavour to translate into reality his

long cherished dream of a united South Africa, he
suffered multiple agonies of loneliness, humiliation - the
most tragic aspect of his life was 27 years of
incarceration. His entire prime days spent within the four
walls of his prison cell, deprived of family and social life.
"This is our moment of greatest sorrow - Fellow South

Africans, our beloved Nelson Rohlihla Mandela, the
founding President of our democratic nation, has
departed. Our people have lost a father. Although we
knew this day was going to come, nothing can diminish our
sense of a profound and enduring loss. His tireless
struggle for freedom earned him the respect of the
world. His humility, passion and humanity, earned him
their love.
As mourners gathered to pay tribute, remembrances
poured out from all over the world. In a televised
statement, President Obama spoke of the influence
Mandela's work had on him, personally, and to the entire
world. "I cannot fully imagine my own life without the
example Mandela set." Obama said, adding that
Mandela "no longer belongs to us. He belongs to the
ages."
The extraordinary life of Nelson Mandela was
remembered in ceremony at Soweto stadium, with Barack
Obama leading tributes to the anti-apartheid hero.

I welcome you to our Annual

Dinner which assumes a special
significance as we are celebrating
the 20th Anniversary of the
foundation of ESU-Mauritius. It is
fitting at the outset that we pay
tribute to its founder Members,
some of whom are unfortunately no
longer in our midst.
The ESU was established in Mauritius in 1983 by late Sir
Rabindranath Ghurburrun, through an Act of Parliament.
Some of our founder members included late Professor
Jagadish Manrakhan and late Mr Mohamad Vayid, whom
we sorely miss. The First President was Sir Victor Glover,
our present Patron, who ably steered the ESU through its
teething problems and continued doing so for a number
of years. The first Secretary was the efficient Mr Colin
Hare, who actually introduced me to the ESU, as he
enlisted the support of the PSSA, the Schools Authority,
which I was then serving, for a closer cooperation
between the ESU and private secondary schools.
To them all, we are grateful for their unstinting support

and their inspiration in our noble mission of creating
global understanding and promoting human achievement
through the worldwide use of the English Language within
the global village.
This is a departure from the traditional debate and will

follow the Doha style to some extent. The topic will be
on the burning issue of Mauritianism. I am proposing to
further discuss with the MBC for such a debate to become
an annual feature.
In the past years, the ESU has concentrated its efforts on

secondary schools through a number of educational
programmes, these being mainly the Public Speaking
Contest, the Spelling Bee Competition and the
Commonwealth Essay Competition, all of which are widely
popular and attract an increasing participation year after
year. Our best speaker for this years Public Speaking
Competition was Miss Dipanjali Samoo of Dr Maurice
Cur State College. That was a welcome change from
previous years, after four male winners in succession. She
reached the semi-finals at the International Public
Speaking Competition in London a highly commendable
performance after the excellent impression left by a
couple of her predecessors at international level.
Still in the context of the 20th anniversary, we have

embarked on the very ambitious project of supporting the
production of a Shakespearean play A Midsummer
Nights Dream at the MGI during the first week of
September. This will be an adult and student venture,
jointly by the ESU and the Charles Telfair Institute. This
experience also could be renewed every two years. Our
past President, Mr Mohamad Vayid was keen on drama
he was the one who actually mooted the idea. In fact,
one of the co-producers of the play is Mrs Soraya Sayed
Hassen, one of his daughters, who is in our midst this
evening.
In the context of the 20th Anniversary celebrations, we

have requested schools to organize an English Language
Day. With a view to creating more awareness on the
importance of the English Language, we have sent a
message to schools to be read to students. I believe that
this should become a regular annual feature. In fact,
every school day should be an English Day. Dont you
think so?
We shall certainly continue working closely with school
students, both in Mauritius and Rodrigues, so as to
enhance their level of English, both written and spoken.
Now 20 years old, the ESU has
reached the age of wisdom and
maturity. We should now ask
ourselves what we have done so
far for our adult members.
To what extent can we further
cater for their needs in addition
to an ESU Annual dinner?
A wind of change is blowing
over the ESU. The time for
innovation has come and my
executive committee and I shall
strive to be innovators.
Earlier this year, we organized, jointly with the Presidents
Fund for Creative Writing, a public lecture on the works
of Mr Ramesh Ramdoyal at the Municipality of QuatreBornes. It was a brilliant lecture delivered by one of our
members, Miss Reshma Koomar; It was attended by
about 250 guests, many of whom writers and teachers.
This public lecture also should become a regular feature.
We are very much looking forward to a challenging
debate with adult participation, to be held on MBC
television some time in September this year.
To innovate further, I should like to organize as from next

year a Scrabble competition for adults. There is nothing
better to help us enrich our vocabulary, exercise the mind
and keep away Alzheimer. Besides, to beat dementia,
there is nothing better than walking.
I am a fanatic of walking. I recently read an article, in an
English daily, on the benefits of a daily walk of 30
minutes, not only to keep physically fit, but also to boost
memory.
Extracts from this article will be published in the ESU
newsletter. I should like my members to be constantly fit,
in good shape and deliver. By the way, I do meet a
couple of them at the Trou aux Cerfs in the morning.
We certainly take pride in our efforts to upgrade the
teachers of English with the support, for example, of the
United States Embassy through a ten-week on-line course
offered for English Language training professionals with
the prestigious universities of Maryland and Oregon.
Those who do extremely well may be among the
participants from all over the world taking part in the ETeacher Professional Development Exchange in the USA.
Two teachers have benefited from such a programme
overseas so far, whereas ten other teachers have
benefited from courses in the UK.
Earlier this year, the US Embassy invited their Regional
English Language Officer from Pretoria, South Africa, to
run two training sessions for some 60 English language
teachers in Mauritius.
The training sessions were
appreciated and feedback was positive. We hope that
this activity also will be pursued on a regular basis.
We also propose to run, on a pilot basis, a workshop on
Phonetics, targeting teachers in schools registered with the
ESU around sixty of them. To perform well in oral
examinations, students must have good and proficient
models.
Hence my firm belief that in this fast-changing

technological age, the importance for teachers to
constantly upgrade and update themselves cannot in any
way be underestimated.
I have a lot of admiration for the increasing number of
teachers who constantly strive to improve themselves.
Immense opportunities now exist.
But this was not the case when I started teaching in 1961.
I had no initial teacher training and I learned the hard
way. Should I say by trial and error? Mr Brian Bullen, an
esteemed English Rector at the Royal College, Curepipe,
would come to my class, sit at the back, make notes, while
I was plodding through my lesson. Then he would later
call me to his office, discuss my performance mentioning the good points, if any, and highlighting the
weaknesses. I was expected to attend to them and he
would come back after four weeks for a new assessment.
This experience was repeated a number of times.
This was my initial teacher training and I am grateful to
him. He was one of the best rectors Ive known in my long
career. Serge Rivire, Rajen Gangoosingh or Vinod
Busjeet, here present, and his past students, can surely
vouch for that.
The MIE did not then exist and it was only after seven
years that I was given the opportunity to follow a post
graduate course in teaching overseas. I was among the
lucky few to do so. Other teachers received locally, from
a team of lecturers who came from Murray House,
Scotland, in-service training in the main subjects taught
over a couple of weeks. I had the privilege of working
with the team, when I had joined the Ministry of Education
headquarters later, as a Course Coordinator.
Finally, I was recently on a private visit to the UK and I
made it a point, as on previous occasions, while passing
through London, to call at the ESU headquarters at
Dartmouth House to pay a courtesy call on our overseas
partners. I met the Director General, Mr Peter Kyle, and
two of his colleagues to whom I conveyed the warmest of
greetings from Mauritius they were so warm indeed,
that during the next few days, there was a heat wave in
London.
I discussed with him two projects in which Mauritius, along
with other countries, is involved, namely the Cultural
Globe Seminar and the International Relations
Conference, which will now be renewed after two years
break, owing to the Olympic Games last year, and
financial constraints, so I was told. He also mentioned the
ESU International Council Meeting to be held in London
this year, end of October. He wanted Mauritius to be
represented.
I mentioned to him our 20th Anniversary celebrations and
owing to his being unable to attend our Annual Dinner, I
requested him to send us a message which Mr Barlen
Vyapoory, Master of Ceremony, is going to read (please

see below).
In our bid to encourage the enjoyment and constructive
use of English, the ESU would like to increase its
membership. Please enlist as members if you are not one
yet and encourage your friends and social contacts to join
the ESU family.
We have an ambitious programme and rely on all
members, from the Executive Committee and otherwise, to
get fully involved. To those who already support us in our
mission, namely the Ministry of Arts and Culture, the British
Council, the US Embassy, the British High Commission,
sponsors and volunteers, we convey our gratitude and
sincere thanks.
Note of Congratulations on the
20th Anniversary of ESU Mauritius
By Peter Kyle, Director General, English-Speaking
Union, London
The following message was read at the Annual Dinner
of the English-Speaking Union
On behalf of the English-Speaking Union at Dartmouth
House, I would like to extend my warmest
congratulations to you on the twentieth anniversary of
the founding of ESU Mauritius.
For the past twenty years, ESU Mauritius has worked
tirelessly and innovatively to further the mission of the
ESU, empowering those residing in the country with the
skills and confidence in communication to realise their
full potential.
I would also like to take this opportunity to offer our
most sincere condolences for the passing of your former
President and one of the founders of ESU Mauritius, Mr
Mohamad Vayid. It is people such as Mr Vayid whose
vision and dedication enable the Union to change the
lives of so many, and we know that he will be deeply
missed.
The ESU international network is at the very heart of the
ESU's global mission, and our gratitude goes out to all
those involved in ESU Mauritius, and especially the
executive committee, for the work and commitment that
they have shown in ensuring that the English-Speaking
Union's work is able to prosper in Mauritius.

DAILY WALKS TO BEAT DEMENTIA
BRISK EXERCISE BOOTS MEMORY SAYS NEW STUDY
Every year, teachers are

provided training through
various scholarships and
workshops offered thanks
to our partnership with
the US Embassy.
A brisk walk every day could be the key to warding off

dementia. Regular exercise is so effective; it far
surpasses any benefits from drugs currently available,
researchers found. Striding out for as little as 20 minutes
a day not only boosts memory but also improves the
walkers brain function, they discovered.
The encouraging results were achieved with a dose of
exercise within the recommended maximum physical
activity level for older adults. Experts suggest 150
minutes exercise a week at an intensity that raises the
heat rate and makes people perspire but is not so
strenuous that breath becomes too short for participants to
be able to hold a conversation. Something as simple as
a brisk 20-minute or half-hour walk each day fits the bill.
Researcher Dr Carson Smith said: No study has shown a
drug can do what we showed is possible with exercise.
And Dr Laura Philipps, of Alzeimers Research UK, said:
While there is currently no way to prevent dementia,
the best evidence shows that regular exercise, along
with eating a healthy diet, not smoking and keeping
your blood pressure and cholesterol in check can help
lower your risk.
The researchers put people aged 60 to 88 on a
progamme of moderate exercise. Half had mild cognitive
impairment a condition that is seen as a precursor to full
dementia putting them at risk of developing the brain
disease. They were all asked to do their walking on a
treadmill, guided by a personal trainer. Both those with
cognitive impairment and those without improved their
cardiovascular fitness by about 10 per cent. Scans
showed that the gentle workouts also improved brain
function. Researchers hope to learn more about the
impact of exercise on brain function and whether it can, in
fact, delay the onset or progress of dementia.
Dementia is the greatest medical challenge we face
today and we urgently need to find ways to prevent the
condition.
Workshops on Pattern in pronunciation and word stress

were held by the ESU in four secondary schools, targeting
teachers and Upper Forms students.
Feedback from
schools was very positive.
College St Marys West commented as follows:
-
The workshop was very interesting and enriching for

both students and Educators.
Students participated actively in the oral activities and
were very attentive throughout the workshop
It helped students who were sitting for oral exams.
Some teachers have realised that they too do not know
how to pronounce certain words.
Both Students and teachers welcome further workshop
so as to enhance our competency in oral
Those interested to benefit from this training are invited to

contact the ESU.

INTERVIEW OF ESU-PRESIDENT
MR PREM BURTON, CSK
(EXTRACTS APPEARED IN WEEKLY
MAGAZINE OF AUGUST 2013)
1) According to you, what makes a good English

Speaker?
A good speaker should have a mastery of the language
he is using, of the syntax, of pronunciation and more
particularly when it comes to the English language, word
stress. He should avoid using long protracted sentences
and be able to communicate with his audience and keep
the eye contact.
Irrespective of the language, the same criteria should
apply. It all depends on the audience one is targeting
and its interest in the topic. A good speaker should have
a mastery of the subject he is to cover he should be well
inspired. He must have a meaningful message to convey.
Once the first ideas start to come, the rest will flow
naturally. As to how a speaker expresses his ideas, that
must be entirely down to him or her - The way he thinks,
his patterns of speech, his own experiences. In fact,
everything that makes him an individual among hundreds
of other individuals will all come into play.
Finally, a word about humour it is by far the most
effective way to make a speech enjoyable both for the
speaker and his audience. Make an audience laugh, even
a little bit, and they will love you for it.
2) ESU has held numerous competitions involving
public speaking and spelling in English. From listening
to candidates of these competitions and from your
experience as President of the ESU, what do you think
of the level of our written and spoken English in
Mauritius?
Ive been associated with the competitions held by the
ESU over a number of years these being the Public
Speaking Contest, the Spelling Bee and the
Commonwealth Essay competitions. The standards of the
students, especially in the initial stages, certainly vary. As
the competition and the selection progress, we certainly
see an improvement in the content, the delivery, with
better syntax and sentence construction, though the
pronunciation in some cases is not always up to standard.
As for the level of our written and spoken English in
Mauritius, we certainly have a number of people who
perform well, be it in schools, in business, at academic and
professional levels.
Generally speaking, however, the performance of the
average student leaves a lot to be desired. We do also
come across glaring mistakes in some official documents
and newspaper articles. Regarding the spoken English in

particular, I daresay that we do not compare well with
other non-native speakers.
To quote our past President, Mr Mohamad Vayid, the
English Language in Mauritius is honoured more in the
breach than in the observance of its rules.
3) Schooling in Mauritius is done in English, but apart
from Kreol, Mauritians predominantly use French for
everyday communication. French is also the preferred
language of the media in Mauritius, but ironically we
were last colonized by the British. How do you explain
this prevalence of French in our society and why has
English not caught on?
Whether schooling is entirely done in English is a
debatable point even at secondary school level. As for
French, it is now used for everyday communication in some
quarters only. We hear colleagues in private firms
conversing in Kreol as if it were more stylish. As for
officers in the government service, the prevalent language
of communication is Kreol, with, of course, some exceptions.
Generally speaking, it is a fact, though, that French is
more widely used than English in many quarters.
If English has not caught on, it is because it is widely
considered to be a difficult language to learn and master.
Many avoid speaking the language out of fear of being
ridiculed owing to poor vocabulary, pronunciation,
intonation and so on.
What is deplorable is that our students are not sufficiently
exposed to good models in class, as some teachers still
resort to using other languages to convey information, in
spite of English being the medium of instruction. It is also
noteworthy that the level of spoken English of many
teachers is not up to standard. In this context, the ESU will
soon start a training programme for teachers on patterns
in pronunciation and stress. Many students have stopped
reading books in English they rely too much on the
internet for their General Paper and reproduce the same
material verbatim in the rare pieces of work set. It is a
fact that the majority of Form V and VI students are not
set enough written work in class. Surveys carried out
reveal that, in many cases, the number of essays, for
example, set in class in one whole year, may amount to 4
or 5 only and not all of them are corrected. Besides, no
teaching of formal grammar is done in many schools.
Moreover, the majority of films on TV are in French with
little opportunity given to viewers to watch genuine
English films.
It is a fact, though, that there is an oral examination in
English at the Cambridge School Certificate examination
level, for which students are sporadically prepared. But
once the examination is over, students relapse into their
old bad habits.
Finally, if French is more prevalent than English in our

society, it should be said that it is the result of historical
events. When the English took over the island in 1810, the
French language and culture were already wellestablished and the English had the wisdom to allow the
French language to continue prospering. Moreover, the
French Embassy and its various cultural centres in Mauritius
have constantly strived over a number of years to promote
the French language and culture. On the other hand, at
one time, The British Council nearly closed its doors in
Mauritius. The British Council Library is no more. It is,
however, very active nowadays in promoting the English
Language through its various courses meant for young and
not so young learners.
4) We are moving towards greater globalization, and
globalization is also influencing language where terms
or words are borrowed from different languages and
enter mainstream use of a predominant language and
English is not spared from this trend. Do you welcome
use of foreign words in the language or are you a purist?
It is a fact that in the context of globalization, English has
borrowed a number of words from different languages
these have become so great a part and parcel of the
language, that we forget their origin. A few examples are
orchestra (Greek origin), raison dtre (French origin),
pyjamas (South Indian), coffee (Turkish), tea (Chinese),
kindergarten (German). Some recent additions are
samousa (Persian and Urdu), Curry (South Indian),
Kameez (Arabic), Kurta (Persian and Urdu) and Choli
(Hindi). All this owing to a strong inflow of immigrants in
Great Britain from Asian countries.
I welcome the use of such foreign words in the English
language, as they tend to enrich it.
That does not prevent me from being a purist, as far as
observance of traditional rules and structures, especially in
language and style, are concerned.
5) Why should Mauritians strive
to be conversant in English?
First and foremost, English is our
official language and the medium
of instruction.
It is a global
language, widely used on the Net,
the language of business and
commerce.
Scientists
and
researchers all over the world and people in various fields
communicate among themselves in English.
Mauritian students have to take some external
examinations conducted in English. They may have to
attend universities which conduct courses in English.
Interviews for jobs and high international positions are held
in English.
By virtue of being bilingual, Mauritians are appreciated in
international organizations and their services as
interpreters are widely sought.
6) We have witnessed a movement to promote the use

of our mother tongue Kreol in schools and in some
cases informal media and these promoters of kreol see
English as representative of colonialism. What do you
say to that?
For reasons I have given above, English should not be
viewed solely as a representative of colonization.
Mauritians have everything to gain from their learning of
English and should continue to do so.
As for the use of our mother tongue Kreol in schools and in
the formal media, I have no quarrel with that, as long as
the use of the language does not interfere with the
teaching of other subjects, like English and French, and
undermine standards in them.
In fact, I believe that in some schools, Kreol could be used
for students having learning difficulties in some subjects in
the initial stages.
7) What opportunities do you offer local students for
interaction with native English Speakers?
Opportunities for interaction with native English speakers
locally are scarce. We have in the past received the
collaboration of members who are native speakers to go
and address students in schools on topics of interest. This
could be resumed, be it by native English speakers or
Mauritian speakers whose level of English is of a high and
acceptable standard.
The local students who have actually been exposed to
native English speakers are the winners of our Public
Speaking Competitions who spend a week in London
interacting with members of the ESU and other people at
various levels.
8) Do you collaborate with the British Council? If so
how?
The English-Speaking Union was established in 1993
through an Act of Parliament and provides that the
Director of the British Council, or his representative, be an
ex-officio member of our Executive Committee.
As such, we work very closely with the British Council. In
fact, our Executive Committees are held on their premises.
We would certainly welcome opportunities to work more
closely with the British Council, since we pursue the same
aim of promoting the English language so as to increase
opportunity and employability.
We are very thankful to the current Director of the British
Council, Ms Dawn Long, who supports our work. For the
past three years, Ms Dawn Long has been the President
of the Jury for our Public Speaking Competition and has
donated prizes to our Finalists.
9)
Finally, you celebrated the 20th Anniversary of
the creation of the English-Speaking Union. How did
you mark this event?
We wanted to mark this event in a striking and memorable
way. First, we had our traditional Annual Dinner on Friday
23rd August at Indra Restaurant, Domaine Les Pailles. It
was attended, amongst other personalities, by Hon. M
Choonee, Minister of Arts & Culture and Mrs Choonee. We
had this year a Guest Speaker, Mr Serge Rivire, Prof
Emeritus of the University of Limerick, Ireland, who spoke on
the subject The Irish contribution to the development of
Mauritius over three centuries.
There was the reading of an English Language Day
Message in all secondary schools on Monday 26th August,
to create awareness on the importance of the English
Language. Heads of Schools had been encouraged to
organize activities to promote the English language on that
day. The response was encouraging.
The ESU, together with the Charles Telfair Institute (CTI)
supported the production of a Shakespearean play A
Midsummer Nights Dream to be staged by The Troupe
a non-profit organization of amateur dramatists.
The ESU also organized a debate, on the Doha style,
shown on MBC television in September on the topic
Mauritianism.
In a bid to provide more activities to our adult members,
we will consider making some of these events a regular
feature.
The ESU would like to thank the Ministry of Arts & Culture,
the Ministry of Education, the British Council, the British
High Commission, the US Embassy, the Mauritius
Broadcasting Corporation, the Municipal Council of
Curepipe, Mahatma Gandhi Institute, The Troupe, all host
and participating schools & participants, for their help
and support throughout the year.
Thank you also to all members who helped us in our
various competitions, and a very special thank you to
Messrs Sanjit Teelock and Barlen Vyapoory, our Masters
of Ceremonies. Without them, it would have been very
difficult to successfully run our activities.
Our thanks and gratitude also go to our well-wishers:
HSBC Global Education Trust (UK), HSBC Mauritius, MCB,
Reinsurance Solutions, Ken Lee Export Services Ltd,
Currimjee Foundation, Schindlers Mauritius, La Bonne

ENGLISH LANGUAGE DAY MESSAGE

26th AUGUST 2013
Secondary Schools were encouraged to hold an English
Language Day on Monday 26th August 2013 to create
awareness on the importance of the English Language in
Mauritius and internationally.
A message from the ESU was read at the Assembly and
activities to promote the English Language were
encouraged. In a number of schools, activities were
organized on that day to promote the language, e.g
Converse only in English, poem recitation, role play, story
telling, elocution contest, debate, quiz, spelling bee, class
discussion on the importance of English, slam, film viewing,
exhibition of English novels, reading aloud etc
Messrs Prem Burton and Barlen Vyapoory were present for
the reading of the message at Royal College Curepipe
and Mauritius College Girls. These were broadcast on
television, with an interview of our President.
Further, our Vice-Presidents, Mrs Marie-France Roussety
and Mr Parama Veeraragoo were present at St Josephs
College and Mauritius College Boys respectively, for the
reading of the message. Mrs Roussety was asked to make
an address to the students.
Hereunder is the message read :
English, the global language

The United Nations has declared the 23rd. April, which is
the birthday of William Shakespeare, as International
English Language Day. Many countries, however, choose
different dates for this event. In Mauritius, the English
Speaking Union has chosen to observe English Language
Day on Monday 26th August 2013.
One may ask : Why should there be a day of the year
exclusively dedicated to the English Language? There is
indeed a compelling reason for this. English is to-day the
language of nearly two billion people in the world. It has
three times more non-native speakers than native speakers.
No other language comes close to matching this feat, and
this is what makes English the global language. It is the
modern lingua franca, the language that the Japanese
sports official will speak to the Nigerian athlete at the
Olympic games in China, the language that the Indian taxi
driver will speak to the Russian group of tourists visiting the
Taj Mahal, the language that the Chinese lecturers will
speak to Mauritian students studying medicine at the
Guang Zhu Medical University. All these countries do not
have English as their mother tongue, but this is the language
they would use to communicate. English is the international
language of diplomacy, commerce, education, science and
technology, the internet and even the music world. At the
Eurovision song competition, for example, most contestants
from European countries preferred to sing in English rather
than in their national language.
Across the world, parents who are keen for their children
to succeed in life are encouraging them to study English.
Indeed the worlds most popular second language is
English. According to the British Council, within a decade
the number of people in the process of studying the
language will reach the staggering figure of two billion
and the number of people who would actually be
speaking the language will reach three billion, thats
nearly half the world population.
In Mauritius we are fortunate that, through the course of
history, English has been established as our official
language, the language of Government and that of
education. However, it is sad to say that, despite the fact
that English is taught at all levels in the education system,
the level and quality of spoken English leaves much to be
desired. The adverse consequence of this weakness,
though not yet quantified by systematic research, is quite
real. Mauritians lose that advantageous edge they would
have had on the international arena.
It is our firm belief that if we can capitalise on our English
language heritage, we would be able to derive much
personal benefit and we would improve our competitive
edge on the world scene. There is therefore a dire need
for sustained efforts on the part of everybody, at the
collective level as well as at the individual level, to
enhance our command of the language, especially of
spoken English.
Greater efforts should be made for Mauritians in general
not only to have greater exposure to standard spoken
English through radio, television and the internet, but also
to practise speaking the language as much as possible at
school, at the workplace and at home.
Today, the English Language Day, is a welcome occasion
to kick-start this progressive habit. We urge all of you to
dedicate this day to the language by speaking in English
throughout the day, by participating in activities, at school
and at home, in which English is the language of
communication. Such activities would include film watching,
talks, story-telling, drama and singing.
What about tomorrow? Well, why not continue the good
habit you would be starting to-day?
With time you will
definitely be very
effective
at
expressing yourself
in
that
global
language and that
will open many
doors of success for
you.

THE TROUPES PRODUCTION: An adaptation of William Shakespeares A Midsummer

Nights Dream
The English-Speaking Union was delighted to be associated with The Troupe, a non-profit
organization of amateur dramatists, and Charles Telfair Institute for the production of a
play Shakespeares A Midsummer Nights Dream., which is one of the classics of English
Literature and which will be on the Cambridge syllabus for next years HSC examinations.
The Troupe had taken the liberty of making a few changes to the play in order to make the story more accessible to a
contemporary audience. However, they did not tamper with the plot or the major themes. The audience was able to sit
back and enjoy the story of a reluctant bride, four confused lovers, a bunch of bored domestics and the machinations of the
Fairy world.
Most of the performers were on stage for the first time and were students from Charles Telfair Institute, University of
Mauritius, Royal College, Curepipe, College du St Esprit, Northfields International High School and Universal College.. They
worked very hard to produce the show and were helped by Mr Barlen Vyapoory, member of the Executive Committee of
the ESU, for the language delivery.
Owing to the enthusiasm and interest received from schools, three live performances were staged at the Mahatma Gandhi
Institute auditorium on 4th, 5th and 6th September 2013 for students of Form 1 to Form 6. A gala show was held in the
evening of 6th September for the public.
ESU conveyed its warmest congratulations to the cast and to
Director of The Troupe, Mrs Soraya Sayed Hassen, daughter of
our past President, Mr Mohamad Vayid, for her brilliant
performance as Producer. The success of the play was a well
deserved reward for her relentless effort and the hard work put
in by the Troupe.
DEBATE : THIS HOUSE IS OF OPINION THAT

MAURITIANISM IS A REALITY
The activities marking the 20th anniversary of the ESU ended on
a high note with a challenging debate held on 11th September
2013 at the studio of the Mauritius Broadcasting Corporation.
It was broadcast on Wednesday 2nd October 2013 on MBC 3.
ESU Members, teachers and Upper form students had a
wonderful time listening to the very convincing arguments from
both sides. We would like to thank all four debaters, namely
Mrs Soorya Gayan, Mrs Paula Atchia, Mr Parama Veeraragoo
and Mr Barlen Vyapoory. As the feedback was very positive,
ESU will be discussing with the MBC so that it becomes a regular
activity of the ESU.
We are also very grateful to Sir Victor Glover, our Patron, who
was the moderator for the debate. We also convey our thanks
to the Mauritius Broadcasting Corporation for their support.
Last but not least, we say a big thank you to Mr Barlen
Vyapoory for his help in the organisation of the debate.
