Another major concern for the people four years ago was discrimination against them based on their political ideologies. Nevertheless, the reality across the Maldives today is that this discrimination has become a thing of the past. The islands and people are provided services. A peaceful environment has been established today, rendering the opportunity for people to think about their lives in comfort. Peace has been restored in the Maldives by great lengths compared to before.
President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih
Shall not believe that all basis for the government to operate on a path of sincerity and justice would be completed within just four years. The biggest reality is that hope that the Maldives is reverting to a path of justice has been ingrained in the last four years.
President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih
The post I assumed four years ago is based upon special changes. So far, Maldives has existed with economic and social discrimination. A pledge I made was to address this with the required modern solutions. The start of this was major changes decentralizing the administrative running of the Maldives. To scatter the power solidified in one place across the nation.
President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih
The most pertinent request of the people four years ago was to revert governance to a path of justice. That day, the people wanted a government formed on laws of transparency and accountability. An environment where an independent life can be led, without leaving behind any island, or any person.
President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih
There is an assurance I gave to the people of Maldives four years ago. That is the assurance that there will be no discrimination in fulfilling the hopes of all Maldivian people. That I will remain steadfast in serving the people without discrimination. Today marks four years later. Without faltering from this pledge, the past four years have passed as a period of equality for all Maldivian citizens.
President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih
President Solih emphasizes the need to isolate chemical warehouses and workshops from residential areas.
President Solih conveys condolences to the families of the deceased in the deadly fire at M. Nirufehi on early Thursday morning.
