Dear Editor,
The Islamic Foundation has called for the deportation of Maryam Omidi alleging she is a supporter of gay rights.
There are gay couples coming to Maldives for honeymoon’s and romantic holidays. Do we then have a box to tick in the immigration form asking the sexuality of each visitor in the Maldives.
I find Ms. Omidi to be a great editor and one who will instill great journalistic knowledge in writers like Shazra and Naish. I also find Minivannews to be the most balanced news source in Maldives although they lack the quantity of a Haveeru or TVM.
True democracy is having differences of opinion and being able to accept those varying opinions. Are we saying Islam and democracy cannot co-exist in our society? Those that are too backward for democracy should be given civil education options.
Regards,
