Bus companies should opt for 2 + 2 seat arrangement<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

One major issue for bus passengers is the highly inconvenient 2 + 3 seat arrangement. We request those involved with the specifications and tendering procedures for the NTC and other bus companies as well as \u201cIndividual\u201d bus operators to opt for buses with 2 + 2 seat arrangements and preferably with NO air conditioners. These are not MID compatible unless powered by solar PV or other renewable sources. Besides many people are not comfortable with ACs as they are likely to affect their health, and the trip is more expensive. It would appear this seems to constitute a device to get round the free bus transport facilities as the elderly are supposed to pay half fare instead of travelling for free in the AC buses. <\/span><\/p>\n

Lettre ouverte au ministre de l\u2019Education et des Ressources humaines<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

L\u2019\u00e9ducation \u00e0 la sexualit\u00e9<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Votre projet nous int\u00e9resse, Monsieur le Ministre !<\/span><\/p>\n

L\u2019\u00e9ducation \u00e0 la sexualit\u00e9 fait partie d\u2019un plus vaste projet sur les valeurs humaines. Nous pensons que cet enseignement fait partie de la formation de nos jeunes \u00e0 devenir des citoyens responsables au service de la nation mauricienne.<\/span><\/p>\n

L\u2019Education moderne ne doit pas se cantonner \u00e0 fabriquer des laur\u00e9ats pour la poursuite des \u00e9tudes universitaires \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9tranger, le character building est aussi tr\u00e8s important dans la formation scolaire.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nous voudrions avoir quelques \u00e9claircissements sur ce projet, Monsieur le Ministre.<\/span><\/p>\n

1\u00b0 L\u2019enseignement se fera-t-il dans le cursus scolaire ?<\/span><\/p>\n

2\u00b0 Qui enseignera cette mati\u00e8re ?<\/span><\/p>\n

3\u00b0 A partir de quel \u00e2ge ?<\/span><\/p>\n

4\u00b0 Est-ce que le minist\u00e8re fera une \u00e9tude pour d\u00e9terminer l\u2019\u00e2ge de la pubert\u00e9 chez la majorit\u00e9 des \u00e9l\u00e8ves en primaire ?<\/span><\/p>\n

En tant que citoyens et parents, nous pensons que cet enseignement est n\u00e9cessaire pour que l\u2019enfant – \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de la pubert\u00e9 – ne soit pas perturb\u00e9 par des changements anatomique, physiologique et psychique.<\/span><\/p>\n

A cause de l\u2019absence de cet enseignement \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9cole, nos jeunes ont recours \u00e0 des informations souvent erron\u00e9es des camarades, de l\u2019internet, de la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision et de la pornographie.<\/span><\/p>\n

La vision de la pornographie est souvent ax\u00e9e sur l\u2019acte sexuel grossi\u00e8rement exag\u00e9r\u00e9 dans un but purement commercial en montrant le c\u00f4t\u00e9 macho de l\u2019homme sur la femme.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tr\u00e8s souvent, la pornographie montre le c\u00f4t\u00e9 pervers de l\u2019acte sexuel, ce qui peut perturber les adolescents psychiquement.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dans les ann\u00e9es 1980 avec la parution du virus VIH du Sida, difficilement ma\u00eetrisable malgr\u00e9 les recherches, le tiers-monde conna\u00eet une ascension inqui\u00e9tante de la propagation du virus par voie sexuelle.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pour \u00e9viter d\u2019\u00eatre contamin\u00e9 par ce dangereux virus VIH et ceux des MST (Maladies Sexuellement Transmissibles), il faudrait aussi enseigner aux adolescents la mani\u00e8re de se prot\u00e9ger avant l\u2019acte sexuel. Cela aussi fait partie de cet enseignement \u00e0 la sexualit\u00e9.<\/span><\/p>\n

BUTS \u00e0 atteindre :<\/span><\/p>\n

1\u00b0 Eviter des grossesses pr\u00e9coces<\/span><\/p>\n

2\u00b0 Diminuer des cas de viols et de p\u00e9dophilie<\/span><\/p>\n

3\u00b0 Eviter le Sida et les MST<\/span><\/p>\n

4\u00b0 D\u00e9velopper des sentiments d\u2019affection et d\u2019amour entre les partenaires par le respect de l\u2019autre.<\/span><\/p>\n

Avec tous nos respects et notre admiration pour votre courage, Monsieur le Ministre<\/span><\/p>\n
