Seychelles, 13 March 2001
The official visit of the Grand Chancellor of the Order Count Carlo Marullo di Condojanni to the Seychelles provided the opportunity of inaugurating the Haemodialysis Centre at the Victoria Hospital, which was built with the contribution of the Order, who also donated two ambulances.

The unveiling of the commemoration plaque at the hospital was attended by the Ambassador of the Order of Malta to the Seychelles, Dr. Antonio Spada, and by the Secretaries-General of the Ministry of Health, Mme Marie Ange Hoareau, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, M. Alain Buttler-Payette.

During the ceremony the Grand Chancellor noted that the Centre was “the symbol of the cooperation between the Order of Malta and the Government of the Seychelles” and that the two ambulances donated “will contribute to the improvement of public health services”.
The Grand Chancellor had expressed his appreciation of this commitment at a previous meeting with the Head of State of the Seychelles, M. France Albert René, during which he stressed the need to strengthen cooperation to create a sound health-care service.
