Malé Commercial Port Project Shifts From Gulhifalhu to Thilafushi
President Mohamed Muizzu announced that the Malé Commercial Port planned for Gulhifalhu by the previous administration will instead be built at Thilafushi, saying Gulhifalhu is not the most appropriate site. The project, funded through a Line of Credit Facility from India covering 75 percent of the cost, is estimated at US$400 million (MVR 6.1 billion), will handle 400,000 twenty-foot containers, and is scheduled for completion in 2026.
