Hi, I'm Viyu. Ask me about the stories collected here. I answer only from them, with numbered links to the outlets that published them, and I say so when they do not cover it.
According to MATI data, resort earnings fell by US$529 million (MVR 8 billion) last year, with total tourism sector earnings dropping to US$5 billion from US$5.4 billion in 2022 despite around 1.7 million tourist arrivals. The World Bank attributed the revenue decline to a demand shift toward lower-end guesthouses and downgraded its 2024 growth projections for the Maldives.
