The Rasin-ist Creed

THE RASIN-IST CREED

The basic Seselwa Rasin-ist principles are:

ARTICLE I
SESEL POU SESELWA

Seselwa Rasin-ists first and foremost stand for Sesel Pou Seselwa. We Seselwa Rasin claimed our independence as a unified people, with all past grievances forgiven, under the banner of “Seychelles Pour Seychellois” with the intention of moving forward to develop our country as a Sesel Pou Seselwa which intentions and unity were betrayed on June 5th 1977.

Our symbol is the BLACK STAR on a white circular background. The BLACK STAR represents the inalienable and permanent nature of the rights of Seselwa Rasin and Sesel Pou Seselwa and the white circular background symbolizes the purity and clarity of Seselwa Rasin rights.

The Independence Flag evidenced international recognition of the Seselwa Rasin people as the distinct, indigenous people and owners of Seychelles, and it further signified our unity and national reconciliation with each other with all past grievances put behind us, and it further represented our determination to develop our country for the benefit of all Seselwa Rasin, and which flag was accepted and was agreed to by all parties, and therefore, the Independence Flag must be restored as our National Flag symbolizing Seselwa Rasin ownership of and control over Seychelles.

ARTICLE II
DAY OF BETRAYAL AND OF ATONEMENT

Henceforth, June 5th of every year shall continue as a national holiday to be remembered by all Seselwa Rasin as The Day of Betrayal and of Atonement.

On this date we will henceforth remember the betrayal of Sesel Pou Seselwa and atone for the ways we individually may have personally betrayed Sesel Pou Seselwa in the prior year and resolve and define ways to improve our individual commitment and dedication to Sesel Pou Seselwa during the coming year.

ARTICLE III
SESELWA RASIN -DEFINITION

Seselwa Rasin are the indigenous people of Seychelles, and Seychelles belongs solely to Seselwa Rasin and to no one else, and Seychelles is the Seselwa Rasin homeland and motherland. These facts were recognized and accepted by Britain and the international community on the date of our independence, June 29th 1976, Independence Day.

A Seselwa Rasin is a person whose ancestors formed the roots of Seychellois culture and society. A Seselwa Rasin is defined as any person who was a Seychellois on Independence Day, June 29th 1976, and his or her descendants.

Except for spousal naturalization and humanitarian grant of Rasin status defined in this Creed, no one can take away or confer the status of Seselwa Rasin based on any action taken or not taken by the individual Seselwa Rasin – it either exits or does not exist and it is inviolable, inalienable and as permanent as the STARs in the night skies of Seychelles.

Rasin spouses may become naturalized after 10 years of marriage to a Seselwa Rasin and after 10 years of residency in Seychelles, which may be counted concurrently, but a naturalized Seselwa Rasin may not confer Seselwa Rasin status to his or her descendents independent of his or her Seselwa Rasin spouse.

ARTICLE IV
POLITICAL CONTROL OF SEYCHELLES

Seselwa Rasin have the exclusive right to politically control and govern Seychelles.

Seselwa Rasin have the exclusive right to be elected to, or appointed to, any position in Seychelles that involves governing, or which has any powers to govern, any part of Seychelles.

ARTICLE V
SEYCHELLES IS THE SESELWA RASIN PATRIMONY

All the benefits and resources of and from Seychelles belong to Seselwa Rasin and are the patrimony of all Seselwa Rasin only. Some of the benefits of our patrimony which belong solely to Seselwa Rasin are for instance, free medical care, free education, free housing and other free social services and entitlements which should be provided to Seselwa Rasin only – all others must pay a reasonable fee for said services.

All Seselwa Rasin who need assistance shall be provided assistance by the Government of Seychelles or by any other Seselwa Rasin, which right to assistance shall be balanced by the obligation and duty of each individual Seselwa Rasin to improve himself and herself, and provide for himself and herself, to the greatest extent possible, so that other Seselwa Rasin in greater need may be provided more assistance.

ARTICLE VI
SESELWA LANGUAGE AND CULTURE

The Seselwa Rasin language and culture shall no longer be referred to as Creole, which name does not recognize our distinctiveness and our uniqueness as a people. Our language shall henceforth be referred to as Seselwa, and our culture shall henceforth be referred to as the Seselwa culture in order to recognize the independence and the distinctiveness of the Seselwa Rasin people, our language and our culture.

ARTICLE VII
FABRIKE – DEFINITION - RIGHTS

A Fabrike is a counterfeit Seychellois or a person who claims to be a Seychellois but is not a Seselwa Rasin. All Fabrike with Seychelles passports, and all claimed rights to Seychelles citizenship held by Fabrike, should be canceled without exception except for the humanitarian waiver described here.

Any Fabrike who has not voted in or participated in our future elections, and who has not violated the laws of Seychelles, and who has not benefited from any violation of the laws of Seychelles, may petition a Rasin-ist government for a humanitarian waiver of the cancellation requirement of their claimed Seychellois citizenship, which may granted only in exceptional circumstances and which exceptional circumstances must be described in exact and extensive detail, all of which must be made public, and each waiver granted shall not be valid until individually confirmed by a majority vote of all Seselwa Rasin voting in a national referendum on this issue. Any waivers which are confirmed by a majority of Seselwa Rasin voters voting in the referendum on this issue shall result in the affected Fabrike and his descendents declared to be Seselwa Rasin by majority vote of all Seselwa Rasin voting in the referendum.

Any Fabrike who votes in our future elections should be deported without exception when a Rasin-ist government assumes political power in Seychelles, and shall not be eligible to request a humanitarian waiver of the revocation of their claimed Seychellois citizenship.

A Seselwa Rasin shall cooperate with any international agency and seek the cooperation of any international agency to identify all Fabrike and the misdeeds they may have perpetrated under cover of their Fabrike Seychelles citizenship.


ARTICLE VIII
SESELWA RASIN DIASPORA - RIGHTS

All Seselwa Rasin, wherever they are, must have the right to vote in all elections in Seychelles by registering as a Seselwa Rasin and by registering as an absentee voter in their motherland.

The voter registration procedures should be the most liberal possible, while maintaining the sanctity and secrecy of the ballot, in order to meet the underlying objective of allowing any Seselwa Rasin the full opportunity to exercise their right to vote in all elections held in Seychelles - the Seselwa Rasin homeland.

All Seselwa Rasin and their descendents, wherever they live or however long they have been absent from Seychelles, shall have a Right of Return to Seychelles as full citizens of Seychelles, and which Right of Return may not be abrogated compromised or revoked.

ARTICLE XI

ARTICLE XII
MEDIA – FREE SPEECH AND ASSOCIATION

Any and all media in Seychelles must be majority owned by Seselwa Rasin only, and that any government owned or financed media must be independently governed to serve Seselwa Rasin interests, and not that of any one person or any one political party or group.

We Seselwa Rasin must have the freedom to associate, think, speak and freely petition our leaders for redress of our grievances in as free an atmosphere as possible without fear of intimidation or retaliation, and we Seselwa Rasin must have the opportunity to freely develop as many media outlets as possible to freely and independently express our views with the least minimum restrictions as is possible in the most liberal atmosphere as is possible.


ARTICLE XIII
REMOVAL OF PP COLLABORATORS

We Seselwa Rasin have a duty and obligation to remove the PP Collaborators from power, unless they renounce their collaboration and implement Sesel Pou Seselwa.

The removal of the PP Collaborators from power must be accomplished first by exhausting all peaceful means available, and then, as an absolute last resort, by revolutionary direct action.

A Collaborator is a Seselwa Rasin who does not promote Seselwa Rasin rights over and above those of Fabrike or foreigner rights in Seychelles the Seselwa Rasin motherland.

It is the duty and obligation of every Rasin-ist to educate himself or herself according to each individual’s highest abilities and capabilities so that each Rasin-ist may have the highest level of skill, abilities and capabilities to individually protect and defend Sesel Pou Seselwa and the principles contained in The Rasin-ist Creed.

ARTICLE XV
