My apologies - I do not have time to write this into the article: Patrick Pillay is no longer Minister of Foreign Affairs, he is now High Commissioner to the UK.

This: http://www.mfa.gov.sc/news.php?content_id=30&news_id=62 ...is the press release where the President thanked him for his work as MFA. (not dated)
This: http://www.eturbonews.com/16616/seychelles-president-announces-cabinet-reshuffle ...is a news article listing the replacement MFA, Jean-Paul Adam. (June 2010)
Here: http://www.fco.gov.uk/resources/en/protocol/ldl-june2010 ...is the current version of the London Diplomatic List which shows him as the HC, effective February 3, 2010.

Expansion happened today UTC and exceeds 5x requirement. Article is well-written and well-sourced. Image in article is appropriately licensed (and is pretty good, too). No copyvio issues and citation is appropriately located. Hook is fascinating enough and properly sourced. QPQ done. Excellent work, Jeromi Mikhael. ~ Pbritti (talk) 16:35, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
