Does Maldives deserve Prez. Yameen ???

For 30 consecutive years, we were ruled by a dictator but at the moment we are being fooled by one. President Yameen seems more of a burglar than a representative of our nation.

In the past few weeks there has been news of Yameen's involvement in different cases like Rilwan's abduction , Dr. Afrasheem's murder, Money laundering, Drug trafficking, selling our islands etc. Eminent leaders like Ali Waheed and Dr. Jameel also accused him of corruption along his wife.

The hospitals and schools of our country are underdeveloped due to lack of funds but the Government is buying private jet for Prez. Yameen. We are dying while paying our house rents,women are being abused, crime rate is increasing day and night. Youth is going towards hell through abusing drugs. And thanks to the Govt. because its taking more loans to burden us.

Do we deserve such governance ?

Is Prez. Yameen a right man to lead our nation ?

Is Maldives safe in his hands ?

We all know the answers and its a shame that we are not doing enough to change this scenario. Significant people have been either killed or jailed for saying anything against this dark regime. Still there are people who continue to fight and it is all happening for our sake. 

Therefore, its time for us to gather all our courage and become the light which will tear off this cloak of Yameen's dark regime!!!

Maldives needs to be saved by MALDIVIANS NOW!!!!

Its time to 'FIGHT FOR MALDIVES'!!!

 

There is an island in Alaska'Shishmaraf'. Its population is merely 650. they have already lost 2,500 to 3,000 feet of land to coastal erosion. And they are aware that their island will erode away completely. A similar case is of 'Marshall island'. They too are facing difficulty due to climate change.Reading about them, scared me to hell because my nation 'Maldives' is also standing in the line, waiting to be disappeared. There are international summits happening around the globe but no one is representing us.

From outside my nation is beautiful, peaceful and serene. Though from the inside it is a battle ground. everyone is fighting for something. Politicians for power,activists for rights,buisnessmen for profit and common people like us for our livelihood.In this circus, my nation is fighting alone with the climate change for our survival. It is bearing all the attrocities of global warming alone.If Maldives vanishes then all the other battles are worthless. We may need to shift as environmental refugees in other countries. the world as we know it won't exist. Nothing will be left to fight for.

I have read about some revolutions and in each of them, there was a single man standing in front. But his power always remained in the common people like you and me. Whether it was 'Che Guevara' or 'Nelson Mandela'. These people stood with them , fought with them and eventualy won. The common people belived in their cause, they understood the motive which was beneficial for all. Without them no revolution was possible.

Looking at the present scenario in our country. This is our time to start a revolution. One to save 'Maldives'! We already have a leader,'Mohamed Nasheed'. He understands the importance of our survival and puts it even before democracy. Let us stand for him now else no one will be left to stand with us.

This one for Maldives..

 Today,we don't have much to say as someone from our readers have said almost everything.Take a look and share your views. Other than this MDP is organising a protest on 27 November at artificial beach. The protest starts at 4:15 pm. We hope that this time you all will stand strong with Nasheed for Maldive.

Here is the poem sent by a reader like you..

My Maldives

Is it justice
or my life,
why I say this
cause Maldives is my home.

After knowing,
you see islands.
Lavish,full of life.
You hear,
sound of waves.
You do,
adventures,
dive in the deep.

But for me ,
there is nothing,
just some clashes between politicians,
protests for my freedom,
a hero in jail,
salty water to drink
and a country
to shrink....


P.S- Do add your comments.

Why President Yameen is scared of Maldivian Army?

There is a rumour going viral on social media that Maldivian Army top brass has expressed reservations about being drawn into the civil protest being held in Maldives.

This corroborates earlier media reports that Yameen had reservations about Army involvement in controlling protesters. Sources say that Army had equal reservations about Yameen as well.

Two questions:

Second question – how such leak took place? But the first question is- why there is so much distrust between the government and Army?

Like most of the things in Maldives, this issue is very complicated.

From the historical time Army has not only been custodian of country’s territorial integrity but also its morality and country’s image. Many brave Maldivians have sacrificed their lives to glory. Equally important to note is that governments have also given Army, as an institution, due respect.

At least most of the times.

One exception was 1930s during the reign of Sultan Mohammad Shamsuddeen III. It was the first time when Army was tinkered with. However, this did not last and most of the changes were withdrawn, practically.

This is second time only in the history of Island when Army is being disturbed again.

There is no secret that Maldivian Army loved the then President Nasheed. But then most of Maldives loved Nasheed. In fact he was loved by a large number of people worldover – primarily by pro-democracy supporters and green-activists. So why should it be a crime for Army. One can’t ignore the fact that personal likings and disliking has never clouded army’s actions.

The secret of Yameen’s fear lies in his own conduct.

History is witness that dictators, especially those who come to power by coup, remain afraid for their survival. Dictators therefore tend to rely on Army’s brute power to remain at helm. But in case of Maldives (exceptionally) the Army has kept its decorum and has refused to become a puppet institution and an instrument of repression of its own people.

It is therefore understandable that Yameen would not want to engage Army in quelling protests.

However, now that Army has also refused to be part of the government brute force, it remains to be seen how Yameen will deal with the situation. Army’s refusal has also put the police under strain. The discontent within the police personnel may further get deepened. This rumbling would not auger well for Police.

In all, this is at least a good news for protesters. Ameen ;)

Maldives is in 'Running' Hands?

When the atolls are gripped with a protest mood and where there is general frenzy and apprehension amongst people about the coming protest, it was rather surprising (and disheartening) to see such news items:

• President Yameen visiting China
• Foreign Minister Dunya Maumoon visiting Qatar
• Tourism Minister Ahmed Adheeb visiting Thailand (where else!!)

Only the naïve will take it as merely a coincidence.

And the most naïve will try to project it as 'indifference' of the leadership towards the coming protest.

The Big question is Why?

For political asylum!!

Yameen, sources close to him reveal, has single objective in mind. He has to secure a place for him run to as and when Nasheed comes out of the forced imprisonment, which is imminent sooner or latter. In today's pro-democracy sentiment running world-over (though hardly practiced), it is very difficult for any dictator to obtain asylum except in dictatorial regimes. This narrows down the choices for Yameen.

Barring countries in Middle East and few places in Africa, only North Korea, China and Russia can offer asylum to Yameen. Russia is itself struggling with foreign sanctions and would not like to invite more adversaries. Kim Jr. of N-Korea is is no better place. That leaves only Middle East and China as any viable option. Middle East is presently one of the biggest security hazard except few Gulf nations, most prominent being Qattar.

And that is why the top leaders are in Qatar and China.

(As mentioned earlier, Adheeb is in Thailand for personal reasons only ;)

PS: At the time of writing, inputs have started percolating in media that Qatar is not so forthcoming for giving asylum to Yameen. That would leave China as only suitable destination.

There seems to be golden opportunity is someone wants to open Chinese language classes !!

Tourism Minister to be next Vice President !!!

Rumors in the power corridors are that Adheeb also conspiring to replace the Vice President. The theory is that VP is only amongst the top leader present in Male at a time when a big protest is to take place. As mentioned in previous article, many top leaders have chosen this convenient time to go on foreign junket including President Yameen.

Government sources admit that this time the protest is likely to be bigger than the mayday protest. It is also expected that the protest would be joined by a lot of visitors from atolls who happen to be in Male for Ramadan shopping and schools holidays among other things.

Add the learnings from previous experience, protesters are no doubt better prepared and more committed. The decision to carry out a 'sit-in protest' (rather than a March) also gives an edge to June 12 protest as it forces the police to act (and therefore to make mistakes).

If protesters succeed in making a big impact, it will reflect poorly on already tarnished image of Yameen. And if protesters are not allowed a peaceful protest and some mishap takes place, this will invite a barrage of international criticism.

In either case, it is the VP who will take the blame.

Now, some one has to be made the fall guy !

It is more likely than not, Adheeb will stake first claim. (despite his dramatic public denial that he was not a contender). Some observer also see the constitutional amendment (first amendment) which alters the age for President as an attempt to facilitate only Adheeb's rise.

Twitter handles are also abuzz that Adheeb is buying support (through his Team Yageen) with filthy cash, which he has amassed form known and more unknown sources.

(At least now we know where the money looted from poor Maldivians has gone!)

What an able deputy for Yameen.

Avengers cast didn't include Yameen. People Shocked!! #Fakenews

People of Maldives are in shocked and sad. Reason is super hero Avengers flick has released without introducing Dictator-man (Yameen) as the super hero. Director was in talk with Yameen before casting actors but from a long time, no news came and it got released without Yameen.

From his indomitable spirit of being a staunch non-supporter of democratic rights and making police beat people of Maldives brutually. Director approached Yameen in 2013 after his win over dictator nasheed for the role of Dictatorman. Yameen was delighted and accepted the role by Hollywood director which he’s pursuing offline as well by snatching democratic rights of people and jailing opposition politicians.

But who ditched Yameen? Did he himself was responsible or Hollywood director neglected him? Let us try to make you understand the role offered to him better.

Dictatorman is a person who’s born and brought up with kings, princes and elite class. He buys branded shoes, eat most expensive food and and wear costliest suits. What he wants is to rule everyone according to his wish. To beat people protesting for their rights, and make their life hell, he started wearing a mask and become one of the special police cop with no mercy. He loves throwing tear gas towards people, while corrupt and drug-addicts are his allies.

While the movie got released without even his cameo appearance, Yameen looked disturbed and sad. Reports are coming that he has beaten the hell out of his dog in frustration.

Will this behavior be able to solve such National problem?

Yameen to meet Kim Jong for his getting close to his dictator swagger. #Fakenews

Kim Jong, who’s famous for his dictatorial antics, has found a new ally. Ally is none other than our President Yameen. Yameen has got close to Kim Jong swagger and following him at fast pace to become one. He's trying to approach Kim office to meet him and learn some antics.

Kim Jong, who has not only executed his uncle but made 7 people naked, later served as food to 120 dogs as well. Kim Jong also ordered last year to all males of his country to follow his hair style. What a great way to run a country! 

Jealous from him being in the highlights of the social media, Yameen is trying hard to become new sensation on world media through dictatorship. An 18 year old college student said, “Oh Kim Jong news keep coming once in a month, which trends on social media every third day, everyone knows about him. But nobody know this self-proclaimed hitler of Maldives, so he’s using force, police and other weapons to attack people’s rights and become new Kim Jong.”

Question arise is Yameen be able to match Kim Jong footsteps? Will Yameen be able to overpower Kim Jong in his media attracting antics or Kim Jong keep ruling on media like a boss. Or will they both sign a pact to create a mutual co-operation platform? Only time knows, we can only predict.

How dictatorship can sink our island. Yes! You read it right

The chair of Aosis is currently the Maldives, a country of hundreds of coral atolls, none of them more than a metre above sea level. The Maldives shot to global attention in 2009, when its charismatic president Mohamed Nasheed held an underwater cabinet meeting to raise awareness of his nation’s plight, and laterpledged to make his country the world’s first carbon neutral state.

Nasheed personally took on the might of China and the US in the climactic closed-door heads of state meeting in Copenhagen in 2009. He then defended the deal from the conference floor when other world leaders had already jetted home, salvaging some positives from a process that was otherwise headed towards total collapse.

However, the Maldives is no longer represented by Nasheed,who was ousted in a coup in 2012 and later lost a rigged presidential election to the half brother of the former dictator. Nasheed was recently arrested, tried and sentenced to 13 years in prison following a politically-motivated trial Amnesty International decried as a “travesty of justice”. He is currently languishing in an unsanitary jail with highly restricted access to medical care, legal representation or visits from his wife and young children.

In the Maldives, Yameen’s ministers have been accused of links with international gangsters and drug-dealers. Corruption is endemic, while journalists have been threatened, beaten and disappeared. Islamic extremism, meanwhile, is thriving, with hundreds of Maldivians reportedly traveling to Syria to join Islamic State.

The problem was recognised by Nasheed when in office. Sharing his concerns over the possible channeling of western climate aid through corrupt governments in developing countries, he said: “The money is rarely spent on what it should be. Even that which isn’t stolen is spent on the wrong thing. The contract is given to a minister’s relative, rather than to a reputable company.”

Human rights and climate change cannot be traded off against each other. It is because human rights and dignity are accepted as universal values that there is a moral case for climate finance in the first place – to address the injustice of those suffering the worst climate impacts not being those who bear the most responsibility for global warming.

Yameen to declare himself Hitler of Asia, will invite all country leaders for crowning ceremony. #Fakenews

Yameen, the great ruler, President of Maldives is ready for his crowning ceremony. This is happening first time in the history of the world, that a leader is giving himself a recognition, and that too equivalent to HITLER. Yameen will be given guard of honour and he’ll be further called as “Hitler of Asia”. For the same reason, he has called leaders of all the major countries for ceremony and a grand dinner. 

Jealous from this decision, North Korea ruler Kim jong looked anxious  and said, “ I was working ao hard for this title, how come this Yameen can crown himself.....…sob!” 

Nazir, a 25 year old professional in Male’ expressed, “This is great moment for our nation! We’re happy and celebrating. Moments like this come once in a history. Hail yameeeen!”

“I’m going with my family to witness the grandest event. The way he has tackled the country after Nasheed arrest can’t be compared. Injustice, corruption and police brutality is on rise. This is what we wanted from years. Democracy is raped! ” he said.

Jahadami, 35, a school teacher said, “We’re very fortunate that we’re born in Maldives. First we were nurtured by Gayoom, and now by Yameen. Crowning himself, that too with the title of Asia’s hitler is something out of this world. I mean how many people are lucky enough do that in their life? I am sad that Abdulla Ameen is not crowning him. I wish police again start beating people on that auspicious day too.”

Why Nasheed should be in Jail for complete 13 years!

1. He remains a figurehead for the promotion of human rights and democracy in Islamic countries, and an international icon for action against climate change.
   
   But who cares, he should be jailed and rather hanged! 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   2. In historic democratic polls in 2008, Nasheed was elected President, sweeping away 30 years of one-man rule, ended Asia's longest serving ruler and brought democracy. 
   
   
   But he did wrong. He shouldn't have fight for fight people's rights. He should be dragged again to jail.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   3.   Nasheed was named an Amnesty International “Prisoner of Conscience,” and is widely credited for playing an instrumental part in bringing freedom and democracy to the Maldives. 
   
   
   But for government, He's a TERRORIST!
      
    
   
    4. In 2009, to highlight the Maldives’ vulnerability to rising sea levels, Nasheed famously held a meeting of his cabinet underwater. Nasheed also implemented policies to turn the Maldives into the world’s first carbon neutral country by 2020.
   
   World calls him “Global President” and our government torture him daily! Yes he deserve this!
   

4. Nasheed was forced to resign the presidency under the threat of violence, in a coup d’etat perpetrated by security forces loyal to former president Gayoom.  
   Yes! Nasheed should be ashamed of what all he did for Maldives and people should actually support Yameen.
   
   
   
   
   

P.s : If this doesn't boil your blood, nothing can. Get up, be ready and come out of your home on 12 June.
