Council decides not to hand over fish market construction land outside of regulations

The Malé City Council has decided not to hand over land for the construction of the Malé fish market to the Ministry of Infrastructure unless legal procedures are followed. Mayor Adam Azim stated that the land was previously signed over to two companies during the previous term and cannot be given to another party without canceling that contract. The council will seek cooperation from the ministry to find a solution. The project to develop the Malé Wet Market Complex was awarded to Trusteng Maldives on March 15 last year, with a value of MVR 117 million, to be completed within two years under a contractor finance model.
