On behalf of the people and the Government of the Republic of Seychelles, I extend my warmest greetings and best wishes to all members of the Zoroastrian faith celebrating Nowruz, both in Seychelles and around the world.

Nowruz, the ancient Persian New Year, is a celebration of renewal, harmony, and unity. It is a time when families and communities come together to welcome the arrival of spring and embrace the values of peace, compassion, and hope. These values resonate deeply with the people of Seychelles, as we cherish diversity and unity in our multicultural society.

As we mark this special occasion, let us reflect on the importance of solidarity and mutual respect, which are essential in fostering a more peaceful and sustainable world. May this Nowruz bring joy, prosperity, and good health to all who observe it.

I wish you a joyous and prosperous Nowruz.
