The Seychelles Public Transport Corporation (SPTC) has unveiled a QR Code bus payment system and introduced five low-floor buses, enhancing convenience and accessibility for its passengers. At the launch held at Victoria Bus Terminal, the SPTC chief executive, Jeffy Zialor, hailed the QR Code platform as a “cutting-edge addition to our cashless ticketing solution.” Accessible through the SPTC app on Android and iOS smartphones, the system allows commuters to scan a QR code to pay for their fares. “This platform represents our commitment to embrace technology so as to improve efficiency and convenience for our passengers,” Zialor said. The innovation builds on SPTC’s transition to cashless travel in July 2023, which eliminated cash payments for bus rides with the introduction of an obligatory bus card. The QR Code system was tested during a six-month pilot on Praslin, the second-most populated island, where 600 tickets were sold daily. Alex Etienne, SPTC head of Corporate Affairs, said the new system addresses previous issues with payment delays. “Previously, some of our customers had experienced a lag when paying for their fares on the app, but with the introduction of the QR Code, the money is immediately loaded onto their cards,” he explained. Themed “We Are Evolving,” the launch also showcased five new buses, the final delivery in a fleet upgrade funded through a credit line from the Indian government. In total, 59 Ashok Leyland buses, valued at $2.8 million, have been acquired under the agreement. The Indian High Commissioner to Seychelles, Kartik Pande, reaffirmed India’s support for Seychelles’ development goals, saying, “India is standing alongside Seychelles in any developmental need as it embarks on the environmental energy-efficient route.” The new buses are designed with fuel efficiency in mind, reflecting SPTC’s commitment to sustainability. Zialor emphasised, “SPTC remains committed to the reduction of our carbon footprint and we have eagerly joined the world in a much-needed strategy for decarbonisation.” He also revealed plans to include at least two electric buses in the fleet replacement programme for 2025-2026. Each of the five new 60-seater buses, measuring 12 metres long, features accessibility improvements such as flat floors, a kneeling mechanism, and wheelchair ramps. These additions ensure greater inclusivity for passengers with mobility challenges. Alesha Seraphine, a wheelchair user who tested one of the buses during a ride to Perseverance, expressed her satisfaction. “It has been over 25 years that I have not been able to board an SPTC bus, but the new ones are easy to use and will cut my current reliance on taxis,” she said. SPTC currently operates a fleet of 230 buses serving Mahe and Praslin, with the 59 new buses bringing the proportion of modern vehicles to over 30 per cent. The company provides services to around 50,000 commuters daily.

The African Union on Thursday urged Ethiopia and Somalia to implement «without delay» an agreement aimed at ending tensions between the neighbours over Ethiopia's access to the sea, calling the deal an «important act». The two countries have been at loggerheads since landlocked Ethiopia struck a deal in January with Somalia's breakaway region Somaliland to lease a stretch of coastline for a port and military base. In return, Somaliland -- which unilaterally declared independence from Somalia in 1991 in a move not recognised by Mogadishu -- said Ethiopia would give it formal recognition, although this was never confirmed by Addis Ababa. Somalia branded the deal a violation of its sovereignty, setting international alarm bells ringing over the risk of renewed conflict in the volatile region. Following hours of Turkish-brokered talks, Ankara announced late Wednesday an «historic» agreement had been reached between Somalia and Ethiopia. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said he believed the agreement would help Ethiopia gain its long-desired access to the sea. Technical talks are set for next year. Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud had flown into Ankara for the talks following two previous rounds that made little progress. Speaking in the Turkish capital after the agreement, Mohamud said the neighbours had «mutual interests in cooperating together». «We belong to a region where peace and stability is first priority for our people's lives,» he said. African Union Commission Chairman Moussa Faki Mahamat stressed the «important act» taken by the leaders to find a deal but emphasised the urgency to «implement, without delay, the relevant measures adopted». He did not give any indication in the statement, posted on X, of what measures had been agreed. East Africa's regional bloc IGAD (the Intergovernmental Authority on Development) also welcomed the agreement as an «important step». It «demonstrates a commitment to resolving bilateral issues amicably», IGAD Executive Secretary Workneh Gebeyehu said. - 'Reliable, safe access' - According to the text of the accord published by Turkey, the parties agreed «to put aside differences of opinion and contentious issues, and to move resolutely forward in cooperation towards common prosperity». They agreed to work closely together on commercial arrangements and bilateral agreements that would ensure Ethiopia's «reliable, safe and sustainable access» to the sea «under the sovereign authority of the Federal Republic of Somalia». To that end, it said they would start technical talks no later than the end of February which would be completed «within four months», with any differences to be dealt with «though dialogue, where necessary with Turkey's support». However, there was no detail on how the agreement might impact the controversial memorandum of understanding between Somaliland and Ethiopia, which has never been made public. Ethiopian authorities did not immediately respond to AFP's requests for comment about the future of the agreement with Somaliland. A source close to the Somaliland government said nothing had changed regarding the agreement with Ethiopia, noting: «Agreeing to work together to resolve their dispute is not the same as walking away from the MOU.» While Abiy has repeatedly insisted that his country must have coastal access, he told parliament earlier this year that Ethiopia had «no interest in getting involved in a war» over access to the sea. In response, Mogadishu has strengthened its ties with Egypt, Ethiopia's long-time rival. Somalia expelled Ethiopia's ambassador in April and said Ethiopian troops would be excluded from a new African Union peacekeeping force against Islamist Al-Shabaab insurgents that is due to be deployed on January 1. Ethiopia, which has the second largest population in Africa with 120 million people, lost access to the sea when Eritrea gained independence in 1993. © Agence France-Presse
