Nadine Ramaroson
Nadine Ramaroson (May 28, 1958 – August 28, 2011) was a French-born politician in Madagascar.
Birth[edit]
The daughter of André Ramaroson and Odette Andriatsalama, she was born Nadine Laura Eugénie Charlotte Ramaroson in Maisons-Alfort, France.
Education[edit]
She was educated at the Saint Joseph de Cluny elementary school, at the St. Antoine secondary school in Andravoahangy, at the Lycée Français de Tananarive and the École des Roches in France. She continued her studies at the Glion Institute of Higher Education in Switzerland. She then worked at a hotel in Geneva, in the family business Savonnerie tropicale and later started her own import-export company Madisco.[1]
Ramaroson had been Minister of Population and Social Affairs since 2009.[2]
Death[edit]
She drowned in the ocean near Soanierana Ivongo while returning from a festival at Île Sainte-Marie.[2] The boat was apparently overturned by large waves and several people including Ramaroson died. There was a report that a subsequent explosion had prevented a rescue attempt and caused additional deaths.[3]
