Scorned MDP and Nasheed decides not to legalise alcohol in the inhabited islands.

One would have thought that democracy will bring the country Maldives prosperity and that the people will be better off. However a party and a President that constantly pick up fights with the people and leaves no stone unturned to deprive them at the behest of activists and friends from abroad, had left the Maldivian communities disappointed within just over a year.
The serious assault President Nasheed and his MDP exercise on the Maldives Public Service employees only made matters worse when he kept on appointing activists for every Civil Service employee he fired. Then the President decided that because he was able to successfully victimise the Civil Service he can introduce alcohol drinking and build churches in the hundred percent Islamic communities of Maldives. Call it divine intervention or people power, he was forced to back out of both.
In his Economic Development Ministry’s website although they claimed to allow sale and usage of alcohol from 1st of March; today he was forced to reverse the decision, because the people will not let him undermine the country’s hundred percent Islamic identity and culture, the way he undermined the Maldives hardworking Civil servants. People responded with vigour, held demonstrations and protests all over the country. Even the only party that still remain in the coalition joined hands with the people, announcing that they will resign if he goes ahead with legalisation of alcohol in the inhabited islands.
This government has to swiftly announce that they will no longer attempt to legalise sale and usage of alcohol in the inhabited islands, because for the first time the people stood up ready to rise against it. Allowing alcohol, although it will increase the problems associated with abuse carried out by the huge population that are addicted to narcotic drugs, the President in his radio address stated that it will help him to solve the problems of crime and violence.
In a previous speech he made during his Presidential campaign, he stated that the people who wanted to stay duped twenty four hours, or alternative days and weeks should be allowed to do so to minimise social problems.
The Maldives culture, religion, identity, he does not care about these things and hold no meaning for the MDP regime‘s top officials. However this time the people have made the MDP regime realise that the Maldivian people will not allow them to destroy our country as they and their friends please.
The Civil servants need to show a similar kind of resistance to the President’s firing and continued persecution of withholding their salaries. It is time that we realise that the dysfunctional government that we have brought upon us only learns its lessons the hard way.
