The Maldives will claim 140,000 square kilometers in territory according to Ahmed Shaheed, the minister of foreign affairs.
According to Miadhu, the foreign ministry has been conducting research on how much territory to claim, using funds provided by the Commonwealth.
Shaheed also said that the deadline for the submission was September 2010, so the process needed to be sped up and full cooperation from the different government agencies was required.
Shaheed said that the submission being proposed overlaps the submission currently being made by Sri Lanka.
