On a distinctly less celebratory note, the Bank of Mauritius and the South East Asian Bank which we bury tonight, have a common in-house culture of anonymous letters. If poison-pen letters and anonymous tracts were also, like field and track events, an Olympic discipline, the Bank of Mauritius would have won a gold medal a long time ago!
Well before the current avalanche of sleaze allegations and malpractices targeting my person. It pains me to see the time and resources spent by some disgruntled staff in tarring management’s image. But I must say that I often admire the fertile imagination and creative instincts behind some of these concerted attacks.
