Going through photos on my phone and got a bit nostalgic with all the mangrove pictures from Kulhudhuffushi. Going to tweet out a couple of them. All photos taken by me for @IndependentMV. The life and times of #KulhudhuffushiKulhi.

Disagreements over journalistic coverage shouldn't enable serious death threats— especially in a country where impunity prevails in cases of political violence. This must not be normalized.

No journo deserves to be harassed or threatened. I personally know how badly it affects mental well-being. Labeling journalists or any Muslim as infidels, Zionists, or Jews is a dangerous escalation that we cannot take lightly. It directly endangers their lives and families. mja.mv/news-room/mja-files-u…

If Eagle Hills is paying media outlets to run positive coverage, label it clearly as sponsored content, an advertorial, or a partnership. Don't mask PR as news or analysis. Let readers know what they’re reading, watching, or listening to.

Congratulations to Crossroads Maldives for being recognized as an OECM! Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OECMs) play a vital role in our journey towards the global 30x30 target of protecting 30% of our lands and oceans by 2030.

Overnight tax hikes erode confidence in Maldives tourism, unsettling operators, deterring investment, disrupting commitments, and weakening competitiveness. Tourism cannot thrive on uncertainty. We need stability, predictability, and real industry consultation.

🔔MJA strongly condemns the exclusion of several popular media outlets from President Muizzu's press conference today. This is a direct obstruction of press freedom and the public's right to information. We urge the President's Office to ensure equal access for all media outlets.
