Today marks a proud and historic milestone for the nation as the Maldives is elected to the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) for the 2027–2029 term — for the first time in our 60 years of membership at the United Nations.
This achievement reflects the trust and confidence that the international community places in our nation and in our commitment to constructive multilateral engagement.
As a Small Island Developing State, the Maldives understands firsthand the urgent challenges faced by vulnerable nations, from climate change and economic resilience to sustainable development. Our seat at ECOSOC gives us a stronger platform to advocate for the priorities and aspirations of small island developing States and developing countries around the world.
Together with our partners, the Maldives will work to strengthen international cooperation, accelerate progress on sustainable development, and shape a ECOSOC that will result in fair finance, stronger delivery, and resilient futures.
A very warm Welcome to the new MD of @hdcmaldives Mr. Ali Zuhair. We have no doubt of your leadership and sincerity. Hoping to work together for a better future of our community. Welcome Sir. 👏🏽👏🏽
We are pleased to welcome Brigadier General (Retd) Ali Zuhair as our new Managing Director.
Looking forward to a brighter and more prosperous future together #withHDC

I strongly condemn the act of splashing black oil on MDP activist Mariyam Zubair last night. Such attacks and harassment are completely unacceptable. I call on everyone to avoid escalating tension at a time like this and allow for the process of justice to be facilitated.
I call upon all politicians to uphold the principles of responsible & respectful politics. Dragging families into political battles is a sign of weakness, not strength. Personal and baseless attacks will lead us nowhere. Rather it’s better-off to focus on practicing responsible & respectful politics and keep the focus where it belongs - on the real issues that matters most to the citizens of the Maldives.
