	Chagos Islanders v. Attorney General
		The Chagos islands, with Mauritius, were ceded by France to the Crown by the Treaty of Paris in 1814.
		It was Chagos Agalega Company Limited and the subsequent management company, Moulinie & Co, which was responsible for reducing the number of workers, for recruitment and organising the transport of the workers and their dependants to Mauritius, Agalega and the Seychelles upon closure of the islands.
		The list of issues was refined and the questions for the Court became generally expressed in terms of whether there was a reasonable prospect of the Claimants establishing the facts necessary for their claim or for defeating the Defendants' contention that the claims were statute barred.

		The entire land area of the islands is a mere 60 km², with the largest island, Diego García, having an area of 27.20 km².

		The applicant is an Ilois from Peros Banhos in the Archipelago.
		We understand from a recent discussion with Mr Robert Newton [who had visited the islands] that, in his opinion, the people on the islands cannot be regarded as permanent inhabitants but are in fact in the category of contract labour employed by the estate owners or commercial concerns...
		These islands were therefore chosen not only for their strategic location but also because they had, for all practical purposes, no permanent population.

		The Chagos Archipelago is situated on the southernmost part of the Chagos-Laccadive ridge, which has been created by hotspot activity since the late Cretaceous.

	[A-List] UK sub-imperialism: Diego Garcia
		The judge acknowledged that some of the islanders had been "treated shamefully" when the British evicted them from their archipelago to pave the way for an American military base on Diego Garcia at the height of the Cold War.
		But he said that their legal claims for compensation for personal injury suffered during their eviction and resettlement in Mauritius and Seychelles in the 1960s and 1970s were stale and were now time-barred.
		The case followed a ruling in November 2000 in which two judges said that there was "no source of lawful authority" to justify the way that the inhabitants of the Chagos Islands were removed from their homes.

		This territory, consisting of the Chagos Archipelago and other small island groups, was formed in 1965 by agreement with Mauritius and the Seychelles.
		One of its islands, Diego Garcia (17 sq mi), is a joint U.S.-UK refueling and support station that was used during the Persian Gulf War (1991), the war against Afghanistan (1991), and the second Iraq war (2003).
		The island's small native population, known as the Ilois or Chagos islanders, were forced to relocate (1967–1973) to Mauritius and the Seychelles, where the majority of these former agricultural workers live in poverty in urban slums.

	Simply Appalling: Yachting in the Chagos Islands
		The natives, who happen to be fl, were forcibly evicted from their islands in the Indian Ocean in the 1960s at the request of the U.S., which leased Diego Garcia from the British to build an air base.
		He replied that the judgment was not binding on him and that he was the one to decide whether we could be on the island or not.
		But come to think of it, the islands are so lovely and there's so much to do that it's almost unthinkable that they should be wasted on natives who have nothing better to do than eat coconuts.

		Former agricultural workers, earlier residents in the islands, were relocated primarily to Mauritius but also to the Seychelles, between 1967 and 1973.
		Mauritius and Seychelles claim the Chagos Archipelago and its former inhabitants, who reside chiefly in Mauritius, but in 2001 were granted UK citizenship and the right to repatriation since eviction in 1965; repatriation is complicated by the US military lease of Diego Garcia, the largest island in the chain

		kendra Project Description Chagos follows the struggle of a small nation of refugees fighting impossible odds for the right to go home.
		By the mid-1960s, Britain and the United States had coveted the Chagos Archipelago for some time—its isolated and strategic Indian Ocean location fit the Cold War militarization-mentality perfectly. The allies considered no island more desirable than the archipelago’s largest, Diego Garcia.
		Once control of the Chagos Islands was transferred to the UK and the native population had been removed, Britain and the United States began to build a joint Anglo-American military base on Diego Garcia.

	[Coral-List] Pulau Hantu and Indian Ocean subsequent bleaching events
		One comment in the press statement on that island's proposed new reef is unintentionally saddening: 'Contrary to common belief, Singapore has natural reefs on its offshore islands.' Today those reefs may just be ghosts of their former selves, but then, I believe the name Pulau Hantu means Island of Ghosts.
		Observations show that in the Seychelles and Chagos (at least) additional bleaching events took place in 2002-4 or so, killing many of the post-1998 recruits in shallow waters.
		For that archipelago, I think the worst is over this year and there has been very little bleaching, unlike two years ago.
