Dear Editor,
Allowing to sell alcohol on inhabited islands or in the fish market is nothing to get excited about or worried about. But it’s the people you got to be worried about. People who have been brought up in their whole life thinking that alcohol and pork are something special and something to be feared. Something thrilling to do just because it’s forbidden or because it helps them to forget the cruelty around them.
While I’m all for the freedom of selling or consuming anything anyone wishes, I do to a certain level agree with people who oppose to this. I think Maldivian society is not informed enough or capable enough to handle this. These are like beasts we are talking about. Deprived of sex, entertainment, fun, a goal in life, basic needs and a good education. So yes, it’s a wrong move in this society.
Regards,
