Ua ʻae like nā mea nona ka La Digue e ola hou ana ka mokupuni i ka hoʻi mālie ʻana o nā malihini. Nui ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi e hoʻowalewale iā lākou iho i ka nani o ka mokupuni, ʻoi aku ka maluhia o ka mokupuni a me ka hoʻokipa ʻana o ka poʻe, e ʻike ana iā lākou iho i ka home.
Nui nā manaʻo hopohopo o kekahi o nā mea nona kēia mau hale e pili ana i ka nele o ka hana hilinaʻi a me ka pōʻino o ke ʻano o ke ola ʻana o La Digue. Ua hōʻike pū lākou i ko lākou hopohopo e pili ana i ka piʻi ʻana o ka poʻe huakaʻi lā. Ma muli o nā kumu he nui e like me ka emi ʻana o ka nui o ka hiki ʻana mai o ka waʻa i ka mokupuni i hoʻopilikia nui i ko lākou noho ʻana, ʻuʻuku ka poʻe malihini e noho ana i ka pō, a ua hōʻemi ka loaʻa kālā no ka mokupuni.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Kuhina Radegonde i ke koʻikoʻi o ka mālama ʻana iā La Digue a me kona ʻano o ke ola: "ʻAʻole hiki i ka Diguois ke ola i ka poʻe huakaʻi lā, pono mākou e hoʻomaopopo i ke kumu e noho ʻole ai kēia mau malihini i ka pō. Pono mākou e hāʻawi i ko mākou poʻe malihini i kahi mea e noho ai, ʻo ia ke kumu e pono ai mākou e hoʻololi i kā mākou huahana a hoʻōla i kā mākou mau hana moʻomeheu. ʻOiai ʻo La Digue kekahi o nā wahi liʻiliʻi i koe ma Seychelles i hoʻokō i ke ʻano o ke ola creole, pono mākou e hōʻoia i kona ola ʻana.
Ua hoʻohui hou ʻo ia: "Ke nānā nei kēia mau hale liʻiliʻi i nā kikoʻī, e hāʻawi ana i kā mākou poʻe kipa i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻIke Seychelles, ʻo ia ke kumu e pono ai lākou i kā mākou kākoʻo nui loa. Pono mākou e ʻimi i nā manaʻo hou e paipai i ka poʻe malihini e hoʻolilo a kōkua i kēia mau ʻoihana e hoʻomaikaʻi i kā lākou ʻano kālepa.
Ua hōʻike ʻo PS Francis i kona hauʻoli i ka maikaʻi o nā huahana ma La Digue, "ʻO kekahi o kēia mau hale liʻiliʻi he like nā kūlana me nā hōkele nui a maikaʻi; he ākea loa a hoʻonani maikaʻi ʻia e hāʻawi ana i kā mākou poʻe malihini i kahi manaʻo nani i ka wā e mālama ana i ka leʻaleʻa Creole.
Ua hoʻomaikaʻi pū ʻo Kuhina Radegonde i ka Diguois no ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka maʻemaʻe o ka mokupuni. Ua ʻike pū ʻo ia aia kahi kaulike maikaʻi o nā huahana ma ke ʻano o ka noho ʻana me ka ikaika o ka mālama a me ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i kēia mau huahana. Eia nō naʻe, ua hoʻomaopopo ʻo ia i kā lākou mau pilikia a pehea e pono ai lākou e hoʻololi i kā lākou manaʻo mai nā mākeke Western Western a hoʻopaʻa i nā mākeke, e like me ʻEulopa Hikina a me UAE, ka mea i hōʻike i ka mana nui i kēia maʻi maʻi.

He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- As a result of several factors including the decrease in the frequency of boat arrivals to the island which have significantly impacted their occupancy rates, fewer visitors are staying overnight, which has reduced revenue for the island.
- He has also noted that there is a good balance of products in terms of accommodation with a strong presence of care and effort put into these products.
- Although La Digue is one of the few places left in Seychelles which has managed to hold onto the creole way of life, we need to ensure its survival.
