Hirimaradhoo Residents Express Concerns Over Island Evacuation

President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu's promise of permanent housing in Hanimadhoo for Hirimaradhoo residents within 18 months has been met with skepticism, with some suggesting it might refer to 118 months. Residents expressed significant concerns on RaajjeTV's 'Haalu Kihineh' program, stating that Hirimaradhoo is the only inhabited island to have been abandoned. They highlighted a lack of basic services, even for common ailments, and questioned the purpose of removing the council and flag from an inhabited island.
