..at us$5,300,000 the ugly black thing is perhaps the hallmark of our past governments' policy of concentrating all vital services on the tiny island capital...



construction of this 68 million rufiyaa 12-storey extention to the IGM Hospital began as recent as September or 2007... and boasts 4 floors of VIP rooms at a time when strong calls were made for providing the most critical services such as basic health care to all islands..

..the building remains incomplete, to this day...

how many a/c's are there in Theemuge?

the auditor general should be prosecuted for his slanderous, baseless, politically motivated Audit Report of Theemuge, the former presidential palace, for the years 2007 and 2008... these reports accuse the former government of cronyism, embezzlement, corruption, nepotism, you name it...




if the term democracy means anything, to me, it is accountability...

the legacy....

lets say you gave a builder 1 million dollars to build your house. it takes him some years to install 4 columns and a roof, worth only a fraction of the $1 million. rest of the money, he shared with his close friends and family, building their homes. now are you going to end up saying "oh how nice of the builder to put a roof on our house?".

what's worse? whenever you asked a question he locked you up, beat you up, to shut you up!

that is the legacy of our outgoing president, Gayyoom. we trusted him with billions of our tourism dollars while spending over $10 million annually on his palace alone. yet he let his close family and friends get away with embezzlement and theft of our money.... for 30 years!

what's even worse? for all this, we're having to reward him with yet another palace ... maybe that's politics, but i don't buy it!
