Although he said that he accepts the results while with Anni, he is finding hard to accept reality, but, sooner or later he is bound to be smitten by the world aroudn him, the real world, far far away from his world in a coccoon.<BR/>Maumoon is not a great man. He will not be remembered in history as the leader who brought democratic reforms. He will be remembered as a dictator who had to relinquish power due to the uprising of the Maldivian people.<BR/>He will be remembered as brining hardship to Maldivians especially poor islanders, when he could have cared for them like no other.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5620041777082716757.post-13924426178891068752008-11-09T11:01:00.000-08:002008-11-09T11:01:00.000-08:00Clever attempt to divert public attention from the...Clever attempt to divert public attention from the MDP's disastrous cabinet appointment.Who is Maria to talk about Maumoon's arrogance and corruption?<BR/>She is in fact like Zaki who used to be part of Maumoon's government and also one of the beneficiaries of FPID bootyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
