Rwanda’s newly accredited high commissioner to Seychelles, Major General Charles Karamba, said on Tuesday that tourism and education are two areas where cooperation is expected to be developed between both countries.
Major General Charles Karamba presented his credentials to President Wavel Ramkalawan at State House in the capital city of Victoria.
Karamba said the two countries enjoy very good relations, adding that Rwandan President Paul Kagame was amongst the first to congratulate Seychelles’ head of state when he assumed power six months ago.
He told journalists that exchanges between the island nation and Rwanda will be in different fields but tourism is top on the agenda.
In the area of education, Karamba hopes the two countries can learn and share expertise, especially where the French language is concerned.
Security is another possible area for exchanges especially with the Police force as Rwanda has a Police school.
Karamba is the fourth Rwandan high commissioner to be accredited to the Seychelles since the two countries established diplomatic relations in 2006.
He replaces Eugene Kayihura who was accredited in March 2017. Karamba will be based in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania.
The newly accredited diplomat is also expected to meet with the Speaker of the National Assembly, the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Tourism, the Minister for Investment, Entrepreneurship and Industry, Dean of the Diplomatic Corps and the Seychelles Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI).
