Many of Maldivian youths used to have a thinking that we dont care about who the f*** rules our country as if we don’t care about politics at all. I was having the same beliefs until last night i was called for a meetup with Dr. Hassan Saeed and Dr. Ahmed Shaheed. I never thought of serving this country, never even had a thought like that before.
The very first thing i came to notice was that why a politician needs to meet bunch of kids like us? and of course Dr Hassan Saeed explained that very well. We are the most valuable, most vulnerable assets of the country.
We had a little 2 hours discussion about Dr. Hassan Saeed’s manifesto and as we questioned he and Dr.Shaheed answered and explained more about the points in the manifesto. I was really surprised by how much they have planned for our future in cases of economy, education, housing and urban planing and in every single bit. I was really satisfied by the way they answered us. I felt like my mind just exploded something new. Understanding how much they have sacrificed for this country and are willing to made me feel really greatful for them.
What these doctorates were asking us was not to support them or campaign them. To have an open mid towards the politics.
“..there are two ways to approach this. either to support or to attack this..” Dr. Shaheed.
Dr.Shaheed explained why he joined the government and how he has served to the country in bringing up an individual Human Rights Commission in Maldives and other petitions which he made Mr.Golhaaboa to sign while answering the last question.
So my fellow youths. Please donot just ignore politics. You dont have to be active in politics. But please gain knowledge about how these leaders are going to contribute to our country. Chose wisely to the person you think is the best and who can lead this country out of this critical situation. Voting is a right you have under the Maldivian Law. So tick your vote wisely.
