The Aarah factor in the new budget!?


One striking point in the new budget is that there is no allocation for the presidential retreat (Aarah). This is a stark indication that the new government does not plan to use the island as a retreat for the president. Though the government has not made any announcements on what their policy will be regarding the presidential retreat, there is speculation that the island would be rented out as a luxury tourist resort for the mega rich billionaires.

The fact that not even one Rufiyaa has been allocated for Aarah in the 2009 budget shows that President Nasheed is serious about cutting wasteful costs and that he will close down Aarah as a presidential retreat and find a better and more profitable use for the island which is very close to the capital Male.

  7. Open your eyes Bushree! Now you see nothing wrong with this government. Beleive me, this is worse than Gayyoom. I am happy Gayyoom is gone, but equally sad that a drug abuser is our President now.

    Look at the budget! Aarah has zero Rufiyaa, but Finance Ministry's budget is now 624 Million! Last year it was just 64 Million! Can you see how Aarah will be managed! Ofcourse you can't!
