Over 1000 youth lined up for just 50 jobs. Here's what this means: 🔴 Severe pvt. sector constraints limited job creation 🔴Mismatch between youth qual. and available jobs; High unemployment among youth 🔴Increase dependency on govt. employment dhauru.com/post/report/36…

Congratulations to sun.mv on your anniversary, and kudos to the hardworking team there. Sun has played a significant role in my career. My journalism career officially began on July 1st, 2011, as a staff reporter at Sun. I am honored to have been part of the team that revamped

We face a significant test with the $500M sukuk maturing soon. The MMA governor disclosed plans to issue a new sukuk for refinancing. The big question remains: how realistic is this given our current 'junk' credit ratings? dhauru.com/post/business/…

📊Breaking down MACL's 24 Audit Report: Velana Airport MVR 1.1 billion in net profit - that's a 21% 🔼 But here's the 🚩: 🔴MACL took $80M loan from BML, supposedly for "corporate purposes," - but it was actually for govt. recurrent expenditure. 🔴Out of MACL's MVR 13B total

Following money trail it's clear that GMCE/GEMCUE is operating as a Ponzi scheme. Using 'AI grid trading' as a facade to mislead public. The scheme is larger than we realized, involving transactions exceeding MVR 200M, which is equivalent to 10M USDT. dhauru.com/post/report/37…

.Jetex eyes a 25-year deal to manage Velana Airport's VIP terminal. Proposal includes: ▶️$25M investment, new terminal, & Jetex handling all jet services ▶️MACL set to get 55% revenue share or $5M guaranteed annually dhauru.com/post/business/… Another 'GMR-style' agreement⁉️

Income generated from jet services and the CIP/VIP terminal are a substantial portion of VIA's revenue. Velana Airport must provide a clear explanation as to why this sector of VIA needs to be leased to a third party. Total investment for the 25-year Jetex deal is $25M. I

Data from Mar real GDP stats indicates a mixed economic picture. A 3.6%🔻decline compared to Feb. But the real GDP for Mar stood at MVR8.9b, a modest 0.4%⬆️ compared to 2024. Is the Maldivian economy hitting a speed bump? dhauru.com/post/business/…

MVR hitting 20 to the USD isn't just a seasonal hiccup. It's a perfect storm of policy, debt & what I believe is a deliberate economic slowdown. Here is my take on this high-stakes gamble ahead of the 2026 Sukuk payment in my new LinkedIn article 👇 linkedin.com/pulse/dollar-s…

Over the past few weeks, one thing that has been bothering me is the lavish $5 million party to open Velana Airport's new terminal. But we are a cash-strapped nation in financial distress. This party is madness. Here are my thoughts: naif.substack.com/p/debt-dilemma…

Rather than a cosmetic change like renaming the MMPRC, Maldives tourism needs a fundamental shift towards a unified, industry-led promotion board. Read more: naif.substack.com/p/maldives-tou…

A participant at the media literacy workshop in Dhuvaafaru this weekend said, "I don't trust any of you journos." A stark reminder of our media's trust crisis. I wrote about why this is happening in the Maldives & how we can start to fix it. Read here: naif.substack.com/p/dont-trust-a…

We have citizens, even children, standing in the pouring rain to greet elected officials as if they were kings. This tradition fosters a culture where politicians feel they have unconditional support, not a duty to be accountable. Read: naif.substack.com/p/lets-end-roy…

Govt. has no choice but to adopt a contractionary fiscal policy, but holding payments and halting projects is draining our economy. This is a tough pill to swallow, and this is only going to get worse. dhauru.com/post/report/38…
