Bonjour à tous


Merci Loganaden et M. Moonesamy d'avoir partagé cette conversation avec moi. Est-ce que l'un d'entre vous sait si à l'heure qui l'est, des cas ont été détectés à Maurice?


Cordialement

I respect your opinion on the matter. In my opinion, it's fairly easy

are publishing them online, without restrictions.
