@maumoonagayoom Zero upfront payment received by the state for 500 hectares of prime reclaimed land? No wonder the Muizzu administration is hiding.

Stop hiding behind barricades and answer to the people! 2/

❌ #Maldives Watch: When a government has to deploy police to guard the Housing Ministry because its own staff and the public have completely lost confidence in its leadership, you know the regime has failed. 1/

It’s time for Islamabad, Colombo & Dhaka to summon #Chinese ambassadors and demand total accountability. Beijing cannot export digital crime while claiming regional partnership. Stop the lip service, crack down on these cartels, & rein in your nationals now. @BonnieGlaser 2/

[Ryan Carter @ryancarter5n]

#Chinese cybercrime syndicates are expanding across South Asia—from scam hubs in Pakistan to fraud networks in #SriLanka & Bangladesh. Sovereignty means little if foreign cartels operate illegal rings on your soil. South Asian states must stop turning blind eye. @vonbrauckmann 1/

Distancing #Maldives from #India under @MMuizzu was a foolish move. 🇮🇳 Alignment with India is vital to #Maldivian security & economic stability. Relying on distant powers risks debt, weakens HADR capacity, & strains trade, tourism & security ties. @fazyahmed

[Ryan Carter @ryancarter5n]

To neutralize this threat before it’s too late, both govts must actively collaborate with #India. Joint maritime surveillance, real-time intelligence sharing, & coordinated naval operations are essential to clamp down on narco networks. @MohamedNasheed 2/

[Ryan Carter @ryancarter5n]

The expanding drug networks in the #Maldives & #SriLanka pose a grave threat to regional security in the Indian Ocean. If unchecked, they will fuel narco-terrorism, destabilize governance, & fund extremist syndicates. @HMVijithaHerath 1/

To counter China, South Asia needs collective deterrence. For #SriLanka & #Maldives, deepening security & defense ties with #India is vital to balancing power, securing freedom of navigation, and safeguarding the region from #Chinese aggression. @RollandNadege 2/

[Ryan Carter @ryancarter5n]

#China’s military aggression isn't limited to the South China Sea. It threatens peace across the South Asian region as well. Constant gray-zone tactics & territorial assertiveness disrupt stability & threaten rules-based regional order. @CollinSLKoh 1/

[Global Times @globaltimesnews]

The #PLA Southern Theater Command conducted a joint naval-air exercise around China’s #HuangyanDao on Sunday, calling it a necessary operation in response to acts undermining regional peace and stability. A Chinese military expert told the Global Times that the exercise is clearly directed at the Philippines and serves as a stern warning against its continued provocations in the South China Sea.

#Muizzu govt pivoting to #China alienates time-tested regional allies & compromises sovereignty.
Becoming a pawn in big-power rivalry risks isolation, weakening the Maldives' leverage and turning an oceanic paradise into a strategic battleground. @faya_i

A MVR 2.4M “loan” with no repayment date into President Muizzu’s sister’s account right before the elections?

The Muizzu govt’s anti-corruption claims are falling flat.
The #Maldivian people deserve full accountability, not nepotism!

The Muizzu govt is trading sovereignty for short-term #Chinese loans by supporting the Global Development Initiative (GDI). Tilting closer to China will deteriorate ties with India while walking straight into a high-risk debt trap. #Maldives needs pragmatic leadership. @BondeM4

[Ryan Carter @ryancarter5n]

Balance #SriLanka’s foreign policy, avoid bloc politics, and deepen regional ties with #India. Stronger ties with our immediate neighbour can help protect security and economic stability in a multipolar region. @HMVijithaHerath 2/

[Ryan Carter @ryancarter5n]

.@pcranawaka is right to warn against #SriLanka getting trapped in global bloc politics. Caught in the crossfire of US-China rivalry, #SriLanka risks becoming a geopolitical pawn. 1/

🚨 #SriLanka’s prison crisis demands action: UN experts cite overcrowding, harsh conditions, violence and inadequate healthcare, while 600+ detention deaths were recorded from 2018–2025. The govt must ensure humane detention & accountability. 🇱🇰 @sunandadesh

[Ryan Carter @ryancarter5n]

🇱🇰 #SriLanka’s IMF recovery remains fragile. Govt plans for a premature exit in 2027 could weaken credibility & revive instability. Long-term economic stability need structural reforms—not populism. Govt must avoid election-style freebies. @DulithHerath

Caution for small South Asian states: Heavy borrowing for mega-projects under China’s Belt and Road Initiative risks severe debt traps, as seen in #SriLanka’s economic crisis.
#Maldives and #SriLanka must prefer regional non-debt-trap cooperation over China's #DebtTrap. @niubi
