Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>The Minister of Finance, Economic Planning and Development, Dr Renganaden Padayachy, had a pre-budget consultative meeting, this afternoon in Port Louis, with professionals of the arts industry to exchange views and listen to their proposals regarding the creative sector.<\/p>\n

Local artists present at the meeting comprised, amongst others, Mr Krishna Luchoomun, Mr Boopen Doobah, Mr Lewish Dick, Mr Dyaneswar Dausoa, Mr Sada Rajiah, and Mr Stephan Rezannah.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the President of the association Partage, Mr Krishna Luchoomun, a visual artist, highlighted that one proposal that can help local artists on a long-term basis would be to allocate 1% of the budget earmarked for some public and private infrastructural projects to local art.<\/p>\n

According to him, local artists could integrate their art work to projects such as the metro express, hospitals, schools, hotels, IRS projects, and smart cities.<\/p>\n

This initiative, he pointed out, would contribute to bring art towards members of the public, and would allow artists to earn a living out of their art works, thus enabling them to pay taxes and create a win-win situation both for artists and the State.<\/p>\n
