Review of the week
● <B>One more rise</B> ? Edible oil prices keep on rising. After four successive increases last year, the price of edible oil is again expected to rise during the first days of March. However, the exact amount of the rise has not been determined yet. The main reason for this increase is the rise of the raw material abroad. However, the general manager of Mauritius Oil Refineries Ltd, Paul Clarenc, said that the valuation of the rupee should help attenuate these prices rises. The increase in the consumption in emerging economies such as China or India, the droughts and floods that affected harvests as well as the speculators? behaviour have led to these major increases in raw materials.
● <B>CP should come back soon</B> ? The Commissioner of Police (CP) should soon get back to office. After days of uncertainties as to whether he would resign from his post and leave it to his deputy(DCP), Dhun Iswar Rampersad, to take up his functions, it appears that it will not be the case. Although he had to postpone his return to Mauritius from India for medical reasons, all points at his return in office as soon as he comes back early next month. After the DCP announced some measures to try and improve the police performance, rumours started spreading about him replacing the CP. But the Prime minister, Navin Ramgoolam, made it clear that ?an acting commissioner of police has the right to take decisions?.
