Fayyaz Criticises New Government for Incompetence and Abandoning Housing Schemes
Opposition MDP Chairperson Fayyaz Ismail publicly criticized the new government led by President Mohamed Muizzu for the first time since Muizzu took office on 17 November. Speaking at the launch of the MDP's campaign for Malé City Council by-elections on 10 December 2023, Fayyaz highlighted the infeasibility of Muizzu's campaign pledges and the incompetency of his cabinet ministers. He accused Muizzu of mimicking the MDP's election manifesto and criticized the scrapping of the previous MDP government's housing schemes for the greater Malé area. Fayyaz contrasted the accomplishments of the previous government under President Solih, which signed agreements to develop Hulhumalé, Gulhifalhu, Giraavarafalhu, and Uthuru Thila Falhu (UTF), with the current government's plan to develop housing at K. Fushidhiggaru lagoon, 45 minutes from Malé. He expressed concern over the neglect of previously planned developments and questioned the practicality of the distant location.
