President Abdulla Yameen today delivered his first presidential address in the parliament’s first official session after recess.
President Yameen detailed his administration’s achievements – claiming success in all the 100-day initiatives.
He explained that the executive had now drafted a legislative agenda for the next five years which would be gradually submitted to parliament in the form of draft bills.
The opposition Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) has described the address as “taciturn and rather nonsensical”, arguing that major issues such as the Supreme Court and the recent HIV scandal at IGMH were ignored.
