Comoros

Mm.

And say, look, you know, uh, or Comoros.

Some said, uh, and this-

How would that rotation work?

Mm.

As a compromise.

It works in, in the Comoros.

You know, it's the rotation of the islands.

Let's see the way it goes.

They're saying he's going to be in charge of the Comoros match.

Yes.

He's in charge of the Super Falcons.

Kouma pè Laval, nou anvi pran swen bann pli pov pour construire un société pli jis et fraternelle.

Bann texte la Bible ki nou nékouté ce soir, Dieu nou fait nou découvert ki pa seulement écoute bann cri bann pov e discerner ki présence Jésus-Christ dans bann pov, mais ki aksyon nou bizin améné pour nou relayé bann pov, bann pli fragile dans nou société mauricienne, agaléenne et chagossienne, rodriguaise, réunionnaise, comorienne, seychelloise et malgache.

Comme nous sommes aussi en temps de conférence épiscopale, bé nou pé kozé en tant qu'évêque sa grande question : pran swen.

Liv Isaïe di nou : « Partaj d'eau du pain avec du moune ki gen faim.

They took out the steering gear so the ships couldn't man- maneuver.

But the third ship they hit, the Kilo, which is this Comoros flag, Dark Fleet tanker that was empty.

The US told the crew to abandon ship, and they utterly destroyed this vessel in a very dramatic fashion.

I mean, this is the largest ship sunk by the US Navy, you know, uh, since World War II.

In 1952 his persistence paid off.

A keelacanth was caught off the Comoros Islands, a small volcanic archipelago between Madagascar and the coast of Mozambique, in the deep waters of the Mozambique Channel.

And here is where the story's pattern reasserts itself, where the recurring theme of every animal in this account surfaces again with the force of inevitability.

Local fishermen in the Comoros had been catching culicanths for generations.

They had a name for the fish.

They called it gombessa or mame.

So I was born in France.

My mom is originally from Comoros Island in Madagascar, which is also in the Indian Ocean.

And my dad is from the West Indies.

I'm really like an island girl basically.

But it's true, my identity is plural, and so my choice was to accept all of this and to sing in different languages, and it's just like a wedding of all those cultures.

So how many languages do you sing in?

I sing in French, English, Creole, and Shikomori, which is the language from Comoros Island.

And do you speak all those languages?

Long before.

By the 16th century, Antilatra merchants were trading directly with Zanzibar, the Comoros, and even mainland East Africa.

They exported rice, cattle, and yes, enslaved people from the interior to the Swahili coast, while importing cloth, beads, and firearms.

But this wasn't just peaceful commerce.

It is, the label of pirate was often applied to any local power that refused to submit to European monopoly.

For the Antilatria, this meant losing their traditional markets and facing increased pressure from the Maraina army.

Many fled to Zanzibar or the Comoros, joining larger diaspora communities.

Those who stayed had to adapt, some converting to Christianity or aligning with French interests to survive.

Yes, I am.

So I've gone to the beautiful country of Comoros.

And the name that I have for you is Jumana, which is J-U-M-A-N-A.

Jumana?
