더불어민주당이 22대 국회 상임위원장 배분에서 ‘3선 의원 이상 나이순’이던 기존 관례를 깨고 3선만 되면 나이 상관없이 ‘전문성과 실력’을 우선으로 결정하기로 했다고 한다. 당론 법안의 신속 통과 같은 성과를 낼 인물들로 배치하겠다는 것인데, 그러다 보니 주요 상임위원장 후보로 강성 친명(친이재명)계 인사들이 줄줄이 거론된다. 당내에선 “결국 상임위원장도 ‘강성’을 기준으로 따지겠다는 것이냐”는 우려가 나온다. 7∼8월 시도당 대의원대회를 앞두고 지역 조직을 총괄하는 시도당위원장에도 주로 친명계 간 경쟁이 치열하다고 한다. 4·10총선 이후 민주당을 보면 사실상 이재명 대표와 친명계 일색의 ‘이재명 일극(一極) 체제’를 완성해 가는 분위기다. 친명을 넘어 ‘찐명’으로 불리는 인물이 원내대표 선거 단독 후보로 나와 사실상 추대된 데 이어 오늘 국회의장 경선을 앞두고선 친명계가 나서 다른 친명 후보 2인을 주저앉히고 초강성 후보를 밀고 있다. 그러니 원내대표와 국회의장, 상임위원장, 시도당위원장까지 오

DPM Lawrence Wong has been sworn in as the fourth prime minister of Singapore on Wednesday (May 15) evening. This makes the first change of leadership in the Republic in 20 years. Wong took the oath of allegiance and oath of due execution from Chief Justice Sundaresh Menon at the Istana. At the swearing-in ceremony, President Tharman Shanmugaratnam said that Wong is taking over as Prime Minister in a «period of growing global fractiousness and big power contestation, and a weakening international order». «Wong and his team… are well-placed to secure our national interests amid these unpredictable geopolitical currents and to help advance Asean unity,» he said. He also highlighted how those who have worked alongside Wong, in government and in the community, would know that he brings «convictions, life experiences and skills». Recalling Wong's contributions in policymaking, the Labour Movement and as co-chair of the Covid-19 taskforce, Tharman also described Wong as being «calm and decisive» in the face of pressure.

In a speech during his swearing-in ceremony on Wednesday (May 15) evening, Singapore's fourth Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said that one of his key priorities is to identify younger Singaporeans in their 30s and 40s to serve. «Help me provide Singaporeans with the government they deserve,» he added. As the first prime minister to be born after 1965, the year of Singapore's independence, PM Wong acknowledged that his experiences would result in a different leadership approach compared to previous generations. «Almost all my colleagues in the 4G team were also born after 1965. My generation's story is the story of independent Singapore,» he said. He added that he and the 4G team understands the importance of good leadership, political stability and long-term planning as they are the beneficiaries of such policies. Citing the Covid-19 pandemic as «the crisis of our generation», PM Wong said that the way Singapore dealt with the crisis deepened the country's social capital, making Singaporeans «better and stronger». «Covid was a baptism of fire for me and my team,» he said.

The cruise ship season is coming to an end and Seychelles has welcomed 38 vessels with around 68,000 visitors during that time, said a top tourism official on Tuesday.   The principal secretary for Tourism, Sherin Francis, gave the figures and explained that despite receiving fewer ships than the 2022-2023 season, which was a total of 52. Seychelles received vessels with much larger passenger capacity this season. She described the season as a successful one coupled with the smooth running of all logistical operations.   «For that, I need to congratulate all partners in the industry, as without them we would not have been able to do it well,» said Francis. She added that all operators respected all regulations and facilities in place during the season and no incidents were reported like in previous years. «However, one of the challenges we do have is for us as a country to maximise tourists' spending when they arrive in Seychelles. Although I must say that there has been some improvement, we still can do more,» said Francis. She shared that the tourism department is doing a comprehensive study on the spending patterns of the visitors on cruise vessels. Francis described the season as a successful one coupled with the smooth running of all logistical operations. (Seychelles News Agency) Photo License: CC-BY.  «We are being assisted by UNECA (United Nations Economic Commission for Africa) where by July or August this year, we will have a report that we could share with our partners and the media, which will give us a better idea of the benefits we receive from cruise ship passengers,» said the principal secretary. Francis added that the data collected at the moment is not enough to get the information needed. The chief executive of the Seychelles Ports Authority (SPA), Sony Payet, explained that with so many passengers entering the country at once, it is important that all partners work together to ensure smooth operations. «Since we are now having more visitors from cruise ships, I think that a committee must be put in place, featuring all invested parties, so that the services can improve,» added Payet. He also spoke of the need for a more vibrant Victoria, the capital, explaining that tourists need to have more things to do and to spend on, especially if they come into port on a Sunday, when everything is closed. «Many of these tourists have already been to other islands in the region and when they come to Seychelles they will not want to buy items similar to what they have already purchased in these other countries, which is why we must look at bringing our own unique products, to give them something different,» said Payet. The cruise ship season will close with the last ship expected in Port Victoria on Sunday, May 19. The next season will re-open in October 2024 and 44 ships have already been booked, a figure likely to increase in the coming months.

The Department said that during his career as a politician, Meriton held numerous portfolios in the government, as Minister for Foreign Affairs, Health and Social Affairs, Information Technology, the Blue Economy and Entrepreneurship Development.

It added that Meriton has also championed Seychelles’ position on the Blue Economy on the international stage. “Meriton’s core objective as chairperson of the AUC is to significantly improve the implementation rate of the Commission’s executive decisions by addressing barriers to implementation and promoting accountability and compliance,” said the Department. The chairperson of the Commission is elected by the Assembly for a four-year term, renewable once. If elected, Meriton will succeed Moussa Faki Mahamat from Chad, who has held the position since 2017.
