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.
Fishermen in Addu City are protesting near the MIFCO Addu Fisheries Complex on Hulhumeedhoo Island over unpaid dues owed by the state-owned MIFCO, with around 80 fishermen gathered since Friday. They demand immediate settlement of outstanding payments and future payments within 15 days of catch purchase, while the government has so far released MVR 46 million of the MVR 80 million owed.

MIFCO has been mired in corruption, a fact that past governments have consistently overlooked, and the current administration under [Mohamed Muizzu] has also failed to implement any substantive measures, which is deeply troubling
