May I remind to Minivan that this is 21st Century.
Can't you present these figues in a less boring manner, at least by cutting and pasting from Sun news..
Thanks for the feedback - added a little colour to these stats.
Looking through the results here, out of context, everything looks normal. The results of Mohamed Kutti Nasheed, Gasim Ibrahim, Ahmed Nazim, Hussain Manik Dhon Manik, Eva Abdulla, Ahmed Mahloof and Imthiyaz Fahmy are excellent. Moreover, the results of Gasim Ibrahim is really outstanding.
However, when the results are given the context of Supreme Court interventions, the dismissal of Election Commission Chief and his Deputy days before the voting etc. etc., the results look doubtful and suspicious.
I have lived through three dictator regimes in the Maldives. The first under Amin Didi, the second under Nasir and the third under Gayoom. All the dictators before that, I did not see, but I know they were dictators too.
Social and political climate in the Maldives has never promoted democracy and freedom. Rulers did literally what they wanted and liked, and people were servile, obedient and long-suffering.
It is in the context of this that I tend to believe that the latest election was not fair and free from the MDP's point of view. And from my point of view too.
MDP supporters and even some others must have felt intimidated. The result, as we know, was a defeat for my favourite party in the Maldives, the MDP.
A few days ago, an Egyptian Court of Law sentenced 529 Egyptian people to death as punishment for killing just one policeman. Even Egyptian legal procedures were ignored. It was a summary trial.
The democratically elected Muslim Brotherhood President was removed by the Army within a year of his being elected. His trial is not being democratically conducted.
Husni Mubarak, the old dictator and his family, have been rehabilitated.
The Military is firmly back in power with all their assets and privileges in Egypt. Very soon, Egypt will have a new, a brand new Military Dictator called Sisi.
The people of Egypt will elect him to power, not once but many times. It sounds democratic, does it not? Knowing what I know about Egypt, the events in Egypt do not appear democratic to me.
There is no independent judiciary in Egypt. Further, the Army, Navy, Air Force and Police are above the law in Egypt. The cultural influence of Egypt on the rest of the Arab and Muslim world, including my darling Maldives, is in the public space for all to see.
Democracy has been the watchword in Maldivian politics throughout my lifetime. Technically, all the institutions of democracy have always been there. The problem has been that these institutions have actually been dictatorial institutions while wearing democratic clothing, namely jackets, trousers, ties and shoes.
The only item missing has been the hat.
Mr Gayoom, who has been promoting democracy all his living life in the Republic, continues to guide the nation in the proprieties of democracy. He will only retire when the Almighty God calls him to heaven to finally retire.
The show goes on. It is now 30+ years. As one Indian commentator said recently on Minivannews pages, it is nice is it not?
I agree, but only with regret.
Greetings and good wishes to Daniel Bosley.
