Formerly the minister of Environment, Energy and Climate Change, Dogley was assigned the new portfolio in a Cabinet reshuffle announced by President Danny Faure on April 26.
Minister Dogley is happy to take over his new position as the minister responsible for tourism, and added that it provides him with an excellent opportunity to shift his efforts and take care of Seychelles tourism and to ensure that discerning visitors get to discover and experience the true qualities of the Seychelles islands as a world class destination.
“In a world where unspoiled natural landscapes and seascapes are becoming a rare asset, Seychelles still offers a wide array of unique sites with breathtaking beauty and exceptional experiences,” Dogley said.
“My vision is to use my knowledge and experience in environment stewardship, coupled with a strong partnership with the trade, to ensure that Seychelles becomes a model for sustainable tourism to the world, enriched by the creole culture and the hospitality of our people,” the minister added.
Didier Dogley was first appointed Minister in February 2015, and assigned the Environment, Energy and Climate Change portfolio.
