bit.ly/4aZZv3Q Rising oil prices will hit all, more so Maldives, making our exports more expensive. Economic uncertainty & rising living costs will deter holiday travel affecting our tourism industry. We have to prepare as a nation, as companies & at the personal level

#DhivehiArchives This is D. Ahmed Didi. He founded Ahmadhiyya International School in Machchangolhi Ward, which opened on 21 February 1982. It was one of the four schools established in each of Malé's four wards at the beginning of President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom's presidency. The school building was originally started by the people of Machchangolhi Avah (Avah), but the project was not carried out for various reasons and stalled. D. Ahmed Didi later took over the school, completed it at his own expense, and ran it entirely at his own expense in the initial stage. It opened on 21 February 1982 as "Madrasath al-Ahmadhiyya," named after the founder himself, unlike the other ward schools, which were named after their respective wards. D. Ahmed Didi introduced many different business innovations to the Maldives. This included designing the bazaar shops in a modern way. From the junction of Chaandhanee Magu and Fareedhee Magu to the north, up to Orchid Magu, the shops were modernized under his initiative. The area was then called the "Singapore Bazaar." He was the person to open the first modern standard style air-conditioned restaurant in Malé in the 1970s. He also brought trained chefs and waiters from Sri Lanka. The name was "Camillo Restaurant." He was at the forefront of importing goods from Singapore. The first circus was brought to the Maldives by D. Ahmed Didi. He also held shows with foreign musicians. He was a very kind man who helped many people with medical assistance and other things. These details are taken from a Facebook post by Mohamed Muizz Adnan. The original black-and-white photo of him was published in a 1992 issue of the Haveeru newspaper. The colorized version was colorized with AI.

Shaheed Corporal Hussain Adam (1968 – 1988) The First Line of Fire — The Young Soldier Who Saved a Nation Born February 1968 in Kulhudhuffushi, Hussain Adam grew up studying at Ameer Ameen School, where he excelled in sports, athletics, swimming, and cadets. After finishing school, he planned to become a seaman, a respected and well-paid profession at the time — but destiny had other plans. At just 16, he was selected among 12 candidates from his batch to join the National Security Service (today’s MNDF) and enlisted on 9 May 1984. After completing special training at the Girifushi Training Centre, his first live-fire practice took place in May 1985, where he fired six rounds — four of which hit the target dead-centre. His second time firing a rifle came a year later, in 1986, when he was given three rounds — and hit the target with all three. His third time firing a weapon came not on a range, but in real combat — on 3 November 1988. That morning, Tamil mercenaries from the PLOTE organization, aided by a small group of Maldivian collaborators, launched a surprise attack on Malé. Hussain Adam, then 19, was stationed at the outer gate of Bandaara Koshi, the NSS Headquarters. When gunfire erupted, he immediately returned fire, marking the first defensive shots of the battle. He fought calmly and with discipline — preserving ammunition, adjusting position under fire, and radioing updates to comrades inside. Offered a chance to retreat within the building, he refused, choosing instead to hold the line from the outer post. His gunfire halted the enemy’s advance, forcing them to take cover in the Dhoshimeynaa Building (where Jumhooree Maidan stands today). He requested more ammunition, but resupply proved impossible. As his ammunition dwindled, an enemy round struck his magazine, jamming the rifle; he was then fatally shot multiple times and fell at his post. Those crucial minutes, bought by his stand, allowed the soldiers inside the Headquarters to arm, take rooftop positions, and mount a counter-attack — which proved decisive in preventing the HQ’s fall. The insurgents — PLOTE mercenaries and their Maldivian collaborators — had already overrun much of the capital at dawn. By denying them the main gate in those first minutes, Hussain Adam prevented a rapid decapitation of the state’s command center, holding the line until Maldivian forces regrouped. Within hours, Indian paratroopers arrived under Operation Cactus to restore control. Because of his courage and sacrifice, the capital never fell — and the Maldives itself was saved. For his extraordinary bravery, he was posthumously promoted to Corporal and awarded the Huravee Ran Medal (Medal for Exceptional Bravery), the Jihaadhuge Raiy Medal (Purple Heart), and the 3 November Medal. The Maldives Police Service Headquarters now bears his name — Shaheed Hussain Adam Building — a daily reminder of the 19-year-old who gave his life so that his country could live free.

@HKurusee @phaadeen @saruvash HAHA. Long time since old men in this country are considered almost persona non grata, and long time since all our children flew away from our nest, and maybe only a short way to go Wallaah Aulam

Former minister @akdeen’s daughter, @phaadeen is also a Pension Board member. The public is now waiting to see her take a stand against money printing. @saruvash has already resigned.
