The world is in an economic downturn. Our small and limited economy is in a stand still! Why on earth should the Doctors get more money and not the ordinary man? Doctors are already getting thousands at their private practice. Their take-home-pay still remains the same!

Gayoom only replaced March 29th by July 26th as our indipendence day. Even a small kid would know, our independence day is not March 29th, it's but it's July 26th..

We are talking here about abandoning National Day celebrations, which happened much earlier.

The British were on Gan after 26 july 1965 as part of a lease agreement (for 30 years)betwenn the UK Govt and Maldives Govt.<BR/>President Gayoom when he became President merely restored 26 July as our independence day,the day the independence agreement was signed.26th july was truly our independence day. Many foreign governments also recognized our independence as of that day. We even got a UN seat based on that agreement signed on 26th July1965.So, years later what Nasir did ws not acceptable. Gayoom merely restored what should be. It was not a personal vendetta against Nasir.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5620041777082716757.post-14690482963625767462009-02-25T20:41:00.000-08:002009-02-25T20:41:00.000-08:00The very sad fact of the Maldivian history is that...The very sad fact of the Maldivian history is that it has always been and is a game for the politician to play with. Every time a new ruler begins to rule the country, history seems to be very wrong and they get very keen to "correct" it. This so called correction in the end happens to be an editing in a way that they wish. <BR/>I as a Maldivian on this national day feel that we need to rewrite the history of Maldives with a pen that is not biased.Alif Laam Gaafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01473479199305885509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5620041777082716757.post-58233332877510454652009-02-25T19:55:00.000-08:002009-02-25T19:55:00.000-08:00It really shows, how little we know abt our histor...It really shows, how little we know abt our history. What is taught in our text books from the young ages, are not well researched. Most of it is fantasy, and iam sure there are kids and teachers who believe in those fables. even today!! what a shame!<BR/>Hope in future, we would have more resources to look in to our history and conduct researches by schollars who is interested in our history and govt aid on this. It is vital for a ppl to know the true history of their own.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
