What is it exactly ?

Faire face au sida is an organisation to fight Aids as well. Deborah, who guides that organisation is a friend of Stephanies. They often work in cooperation.

Thank you for the photos, Michelle! They're great! Wonder if Stephanie is officially on the function related to social affairs, as was mentioned in some thread at this forum? Although, with or without it, she has specially bond for those who are in need..as they all do..

 

[sebastian]

First of all :

to Albert and Stephie...

In the second photo my sister posted it looks as if Stephanie is extremly tuched ... moved to tears - the expression on her face looks as if she's almost crying.

1000000 x times glad to see Stephanie coming back from the "dark" and enjoying it. I wish she could be seen more and more, especially with a tiara

Who has an idea of the personnalities who are going to attend the coronation cerremonies ?

 

[paca]

the list has not been published yet. everyone important in MC will naturally attend and most likely Chirac with his wife (they will be meeting in Paris btw tomorrow to sign a new agreement between France and MC). The Spanish King was there for the funeral, so he might come again. From England there was Prince Andrew for the funeral since Charles was honeymooning, so this time it might be him. Morocco was represented by the brother of the King, since the King traditionally doesn't attend weddings and funerals. There might be a different custom for coronations . The American delegation will probably not consist of any important political figures, since they are still sulking about Caroline openly demonstrating her dislike of Bush.

The gutters are not yet sealed and the mailboxes are still in service, so unlike for the funeral so far no particular security. But that might change in the next few days, especially if the problems in France persist and Chirac actually does attend.

... The American delegation will probably not consist of any important political figures, since they are still sulking about Caroline openly demonstrating her dislike of Bush...

I must have missed that one. When did Princess Caroline demonstrate her dislike for Bush?

 

[paca]

at the cannes filmfestival she gave 30min standing ovations for michael moores movie and she also published an open letter denouncing the polution of former american army stations in the philipines causing malformations on children and asking the US to take their responsibilities. She also made a high profile visit with lots of journalists to the area. A documentary was shown on TMC earlier this year. In an interview (don't remember who with) she made clear whom she didn't want to see in the WH without of course explicitly mentioning names.

Wow, I didn't know that part on the open letter and that documentary although I know Caroline was upset enough to write Pres. Bush a letter (was that the same open letter?). She was here last year. I'm from the Philippines and I'm very touched that Princess Caroline is trying to get the American government to clean up the mess- toxic wastes, yes -they left behind. The ex-American bases here are now leisure and industrial areas, quite pretty, but I never drink from the tap water there! Scared of the toxic wastes. Actually, I don't think our own officials here care that much - or if they do, they won't do anything about it - that's why Caroline's gesture and concern are all the more endearing!

Looking forward to festivities next weekend!

the open letter was her response to Bushes non response to her letter. Apparently she evoked the problem several times, but some government guy just said that the US didn't have any contracts with the Philippines to clean up there waste. ( I think she wasn't very impressed that she wrote to the president and got an answer from one of the minions of Rumsfeld who wasn't even competent in the matter). I also talked to a friend of mine who worked in the government committee for the environment (she is a member of a former presidential candidates family) but she said it was very difficult to work with foreign ONGs because they were only allowed to work with selected organizations. I was also told that former US government officials proposed their help, but demanded incredible amounts of money for equipment etc. and even though they had exact information about the problems they claimed to need the equipment to find out what was there of course they do that with all the pureness in there hearts and no money in mind

Paca,thank you very much for this! I agree with you on all points. Yes, unfortunately my government didn't compel the American government to clean up their toxic wastes. Why not is beyond me? The point of Caroline's letter, if I remember it right, is that even though the American government doesn't have any legal obligation to clean up the toxic wastes, it's the moral and humane thing to do.

Well, the American government can sulk all they want about Caroline's views. She's right any way you look at it. She's definitely a great person, not only for Monaco, but for the world!

Looking forward to the official enthronement of PA II next weekend......

 

[paca]

Who has an idea of the personnalities who are going to attend the coronation cerremonies ?

I just heard at rehearsal that the French government will be represented by his foreign minister Douste-Blazy. I suppose if Chirac came we would have some more cars on fire down here. And people might even try to cause trouble in MC. the way it was said though, I suppose that originally Chirac had been expected to attend.
