Mauritius is a very small country and for them getting a hele is a big thing, so is to us as we just started selling such stuff.

I appreciate your technology but all this ceremoniousness necessary?

@ Parashuram 1
Hi, have you visited the sub-continent, and most of all have you attended (say) a wedding in the sub-continent? If you have, then you'll understand the "pomp and show" which is rife and replete in any such occasion. In countries where even a child (baby) gets to eat his first morsel of solid food (after weaning) with an attendant ceremony, what you saw in the handing over ceremony in Maldives was entirely in consonance.
In any case what is diplomacy about; about ceremony not technology! :)

BTW, the ceremony (if you noticed) was on Maldivian soil.

Funny you ask :). My wife is an Indian and we had a traditional Kashmiri pandit wedding (she being one) also I myself being a Hindu. Apart from wedding, I do visit your country now and then on professional grounds and pilgrimage when time permits.

I agree that events like wedding are festive but this is a military occasion and calls for slightly more business-like dealing. Sorry but being Swiss I find quite a disconnect between the two as among us, business and festive occasions are always separated.

Hi and welcome,
Thanks for the clarification. Having spent nearly half my life in peripatetic fashion across the world, the same question has crossed my mind a few times. However, on further thought, i think that is what makes us unique, may be that is not a bad thing at all. Rather, there are times that i feel that people in the west could be a little less business-like. But that's the way that things are like.
That Kipling-esque line about "East is East and .............."
But, oh; you've made East and West meet already! :)
