The State Trading Organization confirmed that the Maldives' agricultural economic zone project has been moved from Uthuru Thila Falhu to Fushidhiggaru, with 100 hectares of land to be dredged for the zone in partnership with China's Harbour Engineering Company Limited. Greenhouses, a training center, worker housing and a later poultry farm are planned, with construction slated to begin in early 2026.
One outlet so far Only The Standard has reported this among the sources we monitor. A gap in what we monitor, not proof that others did not report it.
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
As part of the agreement, 100 hectares of land will be dredged to establish the zone, with construction slated to begin in early 2026.
