Hello Pbrough,
I am glad you appreciate what Mauritius has to offer. Mauritians have worked hard for what we are today and sadly now people take freedom in being judgemental, instead of grateful. For future readers, Mauritius is a country for Mauritians!!! If you want to indulge in business with us, we are more than happy to do business with you. If, however, any one of you isn't happy with something in my country, then you know too well how to leave. Just remember, in some countries people don't have health benefits, can't afford going to the hospital or have family physicians. As far as I know, people (including foreigners) enjoy this priviledge. In some countries retired citizens have become a burden as there is not enough young people to work for the economic turn over, and in those places senior citizens aren't treated well at all. Mauritius is a country where people care for their senior citizens; this is how we are brought up. In a nutshell, sponge_bob2, if you think it's hard being in Mauritius...try else where as starters. Mauritius is already too small to accomodate all the foreigners who want to come esp. to complain after.
Cheers
