Bunkering Will Not be Profitable for the Maldives: Ex-President Yameen
At a People's National Front rally on Thursday evening, former President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom said the bunkering service launched Thursday at Haa Alifu Atoll will not be profitable for the Maldives. Senior PNF member Ahmed Fayaz Ali Riza, in a presentation at the rally, called the venture a front for theft and fraud and questioned claims that the Maldives would receive US$400 million.

Who said what
the reports' own quoted words, each once
If they sell 25 million metric tons of fuel, they [Bunkering Holding] will get US$200 million in 2023… then how will they [the Maldives’ bunkering project] get US$400 million? This is hugely deceiving the public. This is corruption
It’s Vitol fuel, they’ll take 90 to 95 percent [of profits]. If they get US$100 million, five percent of it which is, $5 million [might come to the Maldives]… Out of that US$5 million, we have to pay for the tugboat, the rent, and services…
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
