Relocating to Mauritius

Almost every visitor has whispered his wish to stay longer in Mauritius. Many have chosen their island as their new home or second home, living under the sun and the pearly beaches. Our people are well aware of the island’s beauty, we have thus put in place several residency schemes to allow foreigners to settle down in paradise.

 

Each residency scheme is operated under specific conditions and rules.  Those who want to work, stay and live in Mauritius are able to choose the option that suits their scenario.

Freedom of speech

Media is usually considered as the authentic showcase of freedom.  In Mauritius, media is free of censorship and political constraints. However, to preserve peace and harmony, the press is usually very careful in dealing with religion and other social issues.

 

Freedom of speech is evident.  Auto-censorship is generally a matter of common sense and ethical responsibility. Reporters and journalists are free from any state-imposed censorship rules.  Newspapers and radios are private-owned agencies, each working within its own editorial direction.

 

You will find a link to the radios and newspapers of Mauritius.  Read, listen and experience the daily life of Mauritius.

 

Enjoy!
