President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih has reiterated committed to supporting Maldivian farmers and ensuring the country’s food sufficiency.
In a meeting held with the council members of Vadhoo in Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll, President Solih reiterated his frequent message that infrastructural development should reach across the entire country.
During the meeting held at the President’s Office, the councillors spoke with regard to the need for better waste management; the impediments to agricultural activity due to an increasing amount of pests; increased flooding; and the preservation of certain places located on the island, due to them being of historical and cultural significance.
President Solih gave the councillors his personal assurance that he would take all the concerns expressed into positive consideration and that he would instruct the relevant ministries to coordinate on ways to ensure the issues raised by the residents of Vaadhoo can be addressed.
