The national universal health insurance scheme Aasandha is to be extended to Maldivian nationals living in Malaysia.
President Mohamed Waheed announced Sunday (August 11) during his two-day unofficial visit to the country that Maldivians living in Malaysia would be covered by Aasandha.
Waheed made the announcement during a meeting with Maldivian expatriates, Dhivehi Rayyithunge Party (DRP) Parliamentary Group Leader MP Dr Abdulla Mausoom – who traveled to Malaysia with the president – told local media.
“But the president had not revealed details. But he said it would be arranged soon,” said Mausoom.
