Dr Saeed VS Government

since the resignation of Dr Hassan Saeed he had been on the limelight for making comments on the governments failure on all fronts. and the government had been responding to each comment he has made. sometime you may think hassan saeed is viewed as a greater threat than all the political parties combined. the latest of the clashes have been recently due to changes proposed by the DRP to the chapter on the "President " to the the constitution been drafted. with hassan saeed accusing the government of a plot to block him from becoming the president. i wonder who will win in this continued clashes.

Another Suicide

Another person of 28 years has committed suicide. it seems suicide has been very common in the maldives lately but it seems that any one in concerned over it. they say people commit suicide because they couldn't cope with situation and they see it as a last thing to get rid of the situation. isnt it time we set up a hotline where people can discuss there can talk to someone who could give advice to them . explain to them of how they could tackle the situation to solve the problem and let the young people know that suicide is not the best option available. maybe the religious scholars can explain to the people how suicide is viewed in the religion. someone needs to do something .

the race for presidency

the race for the presidency is on now. already president maumoon,Umar Naseer,Reeko Ibrahim Manik,Ibra,Hassan Saeed has said they will contest. Adhaalath Party has said they would Appoint someone who will participate after the constitution is passed and MDP has yet to Finalize of their Candidate.It would be an interesting election Year. probably all the candidates will use whatever they got to take the title. It would be the Acid Test for the current President who haven't been contested this fiercely in his almost 30 years as president. but it all depends on when and if the drafted constitution get passed before end of this year.
