Let's make this birthday one to remember.

62 years old (Born on May 28, 1962)

Happy Birthday, Monie Captan! From navigating the complexity of international diplomacy as Foreign Minister (1996–2003) to mastering domestic affairs with unmatched flair at the Ministry of Presidential Affairs—you've certainly proved politics can be dignified… and even stylish. Admit it, how many other politicians could juggle state protocols without spilling their coffee?

As you celebrate another remarkable journey around the sun, we cheer your ability to stay forever graceful under all sorts of pressure—whether negotiating treaties or surviving endless meetings. May your year ahead offer fewer diplomatic headaches and more hilarious moments worthy enough for a memoir chapter called: "How I survived Liberian Politics—and Kept My Sense of Humor." Here's to aging like fine wine; cheers!
