Strait of Hormuz

Vanquishing vice, venerating valor, voicing the vanished. 🇲🇻

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

Maldives, brace for impact 🚨

External shocks (Iran war) + internal shocks (elections) is only hitting now. Mass layoffs, price hikes, aggressive cost cuts. @MMuizzu is about to reach down our throats to recover every rufiyaa spent losing this elections

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

Oh shit 💀

@pnc_secretariat behaviour needs to be studied. Somehow every achievement belongs to them and every failure belongs to someone else. Watching people repeatedly set the record straight while they double down… Truly fascinating.

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

Less than half of Moldis population and half the total GDP of Moldis

Let that sink in

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

@naaif I expected @Dhaurunews to be better than this.

@bankofmaldives promotes spending USD via their USD based debit cards. Media promotes the campaign. Nobody asks where ordinary people earning MVR are supposed to get the USD from?

Journalism my ass

[Dhauru @Dhaurunews]

BML USD debit card in viyafaari kohggen hafthaa aku USD 1,000 libey promotion eh https://t.co/WIPRA0FJWU

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

@nattu_maldives Didn’t Anni assume the same ?

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

@bankofmaldives shareef what are you smoking ? A national bank that cannot provide enough USD access has no business running campaigns about spending USD. This is tone deaf & free advertising for black market.

[sun.mv @sunbrk]

BML dollar debit card eh hahdhai, beynun kurumun 1,000 dollar libey promotion eh https://t.co/scBuQM58U6

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

Spend online without limits on USD debit card.

The people: Cool, can I get some USD to fund USD debit card?

BML: Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

@bankofmaldives assholes Majority of the Maldivians earn income in MVR.

[Bank of Maldives @bankofmaldives]

Shop, subscribe, travel, and pay for digital services worldwide with a USD Debit Card.

The face of the vulnerable old man was apparently less deserving of protection than everyone else who’s just standing there. This is where we are as a society.

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

@maumoonagayoom bro saw ‘longest serving’ and immediately started acting unwise.

Respectfully sir, keep your dictator fetish private

[Maumoon Abdul Gayoom @maumoonagayoom]

My warmest congratulations and best wishes, Prime Minister @narendramodi, on Your Excellency becoming the longest-serving Prime Minister of India ever.

India, being the largest democracy in the world, and considering its over 1.5 billion citizens, it is remarkable that a Government of India be in office for any significant length of time, let alone twelve momentous years!

Having had very close, friendly interactions with all Indian Prime Ministers during the past fifty years, including Your Excellency's own resolute self, I find no words to describe my feelings of admiration for you at this time.

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

@maldivescore What is the bigger picture ?

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

He claims he had evidence. He claims Muizzu ignored it. Yet he stayed in the circle stayed quiet, filed no case, exposed nothing, and carried on as normal.

Now all of a sudden he’s a brave whistleblower? We need to stop glorifying this bullshit

[sun.mv @sunbrk]

Fayyaz: Shamaan was imprisoned for blowing the whistle on govt’s corruption https://t.co/nNHASHVjFK

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

Why tf do we turn every jailed politician into Mandela? Maldives had ONE genuine political imprisonment: @MohamedNasheed. He was clean. Still is

Since then most if not all jailed politicians had some kind of dirt attached to their name. Period

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

@VaguthuOnline is this an appropriate use of this phrase ?

Addu tourism sector still operates like individual little kingdoms. Successful destinations build alliances, aggressive joint marketing, coordinated campaigns & ONE powerful shared vision. Addu as usual directionless, selfish instead of working together to build the destination

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

People keep whining about airfare. There’s no pull factor for airlines to reduce fares naturally through demand & scale. Creating that pull factor is not alone govt/councils job. Most of it falls on Pvt sector. For that Addu needs an identity 1/3

[Midhuam Saud(米渡）🇲🇻 @Midhuamsaud]

After many attempts, I finally convinced a group of Chinese friends who frequently visit Maldives to travel with me to Addu and explore its potential, not just for tourism, but for other sectors as well.

Checked tickets tonight, 3,374/- for my return ticket. Them, however, have to pay 6,758/- each because they are tourists.

I had to tell them that the seven of them would need to spend a total of 47,306/- just on flights between Malee and Addu.

For comparison, those same seven people spent less than 36,000 in total on their return flights between Colombo and Malee.

It is difficult to see local tourism in Addu reaching its full potential unless we either find a way to significantly reduce the current travel costs between Malee and Addu or develop Addu into such a compelling destination that visitors feel the extra cost is worth paying ( highly unlikely )

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

Take FVM. They built a real identity around tiger sharks and the entire destination sells it. Not just fancy rooms. What do we sell? Do we even know? Most guesthouses take huge loans, build hotels, sit on their asses and blame govt when tourists don’t magically appear. 2/3

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

We blame BML because BML is the one rejecting cards, rationing USD to survive. But banks don’t pull dollars out of their ass. It is this asshole @MMuizzu who lied to the public saying so. Turning BML into a arm of PNC

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

The min any bank openly admits this panic explodes. People rush for dollars, withdraw funds, businesses hoard USD & black market goes nuclear. That’s why they never admit it directly. Fact is @MMuizzu fucked @bankofmaldives by turning it into a PNC arm. 🖕

[GK @GalolhuKanmathi]

Just say it BML. Tell everyone that we dont have USD and we are fucked. Also to stop wasting USD and spend them only on necessities.

What is Finley

[Strait of Hormuz @V__MV]

So @MMuizzu actually expects us to believe that exactly ONE YEAR after @WHO gave him a shiny award for jacking up tobacco taxes they’re now telling him to cut them?

If this is true then @WHO should revoke the award

[The President's Office @presidencymv]

President Dr @MMuizzu receives the World No-Tobacco Day Special Recognition Award from the World Health Organization (WHO), acknowledging his leadership in tobacco control and the bold steps taken to make the Maldives a tobacco-free nation. Every year @WHO recognises exceptional individuals, organisations, and governments, for their contribution to tobacco control.
