calls to arrest former government officials poltical drama?

almost in all of the gatherings of the ruling MDP some of it parliament members and most of the time its parliamentary leader calls on the government to arrest former government officials over corruption and charges on to overthrow the government. till today the calls are not acted on. this raises the question every time MDP top officials call on the government to arrest former government officials are they playing a game to render support to them. a presidential commission have been in place and a lot of cases are said to be investigated by them till to date no case have been finished or sent to the courts. there is no news of any action taken from the commission. wonder of they are doing their job or is this also another game by the government. are they afraid if they do start taking action then their former vice president may also have to be investigated . hmm

Protest to bring down the price?

two nights the capital male' have seen protests against the rising of prices due to the recent dollar change. the first night saw violent clashes between the police and protesters. the second night the ruling party had their supporters on the streets with some joining the protest the other half against the protest. the question is will the prices go down due to the protest. is the government ready to hear their call. since its an opposition protest the government probably will not listen. the other question is did the price go up entirely because of the dollar crisis or some people using the dollar crisis to their advantage?. why is local foods prices on the rise?. why did the price of stock rise that were already in the shops that was purchased before the dollar change?.why why why .

wonder which TV Station in maldives now gives the truth. some say MNBC ONE. all who are in favour of the government likes it. the opposition says it gives every news one sided.Some say DhiTV gives it fair. People who favour DhiTV is the opposition. those who are against say that every news on it starts wordings thats against the government. there are people who favour VTV, but some say since its part of Villa group whose chairman is an opposition party leader all its news are ccontrolled by his policies. the newly formed Raaje TV according to some say is supported by the government. i guess the answer to which TV station talks the truth is it depends on which side of the political circle you are.
