It is not only global warming that is increasing our climatic temperature, but even more potently perhaps in the short term, is the rise in the political temperature across our nation as our community struggles in the relentless pursuit for social and political reform that has still not arrived.
If the outgoing reform-minded justice minister is to be believed, we, the intelligent descendants of the homo sapiens have failed to make our habitat safe enough for own dwelling. Crime has become rampant and the crooks are having a field day roaming around freely while the law abiding citizens remain in the fear of being looted.
This is really a grim picture, one that is reminiscent of the dark ages.
Our elites enjoy all the vagaries of modern life, and our country promotes the 'tranquilty' of pristine islands to draw in tourist dollars that drives our economy forward. We are a nation of 100 per cent Muslims, Muslims who practise the religion of peace.
Our nation of 360,000 inhabitants has sufficient resources and earns enough revenue to provide a life of abundance to everyone if proper distribution is done.
What then is so wrong with our society- from crime, drug addiction of youth, lack of a strong moral foundation and lawlessness?
Just as a parting fancy thought, one wonders if the human beings did not colonise these islands, even the birds could have easily made it into a peaceful sanctuary - a prospect that we seem to have so miserably failed. What an irony that would be!

we certainty have a lot of problem here. We should think of alternative ways to go ahead with our future. Need to make a sold decision that will help all people of Maldives.
The truth is whatever government system we have here, people who rule this place will consume all our rights and wealths and finally leave us empty handed at the end of the day.
Think abt this.On the other hand suppose if the next tsunami comes here, Maldives might be swiped out the world map even. Come on people. Maybe its now or never.
I'm pretty sure i don't want be the one to go as a refugee and take all the burden when i have got the chance of my lifetime waiting in front of me.
so i'v been thinking a lot on this matter & finally came up with a solution. If this plan works all most all Maldivians will live there lives with the big smiles on there faces.
What i would suggest is that we all agree, come to a conclusion and we let go of Maldives for Sale. We should distribute the returns among everyone equally and let each person decide to chose there future destination country. Earning around $4-5 million per head can be the best thing that would happen to the history on man kind on earth. That day we can truly say we were proud to be Maldivians.
