Members of the Landhoo Island Council and Women’s Development Committee (WDC) have acknowledged the commitment shown by the government to serving the needs of the public. They made the remarks in a meeting held with President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih at Landhoo School, as part of the president’s ongoing visit to Noonu Atoll.
At the meeting, members of the council and WDC shared with the President their developmental plans for the island and its people. They went on to discuss some of the most pertinent needs of the people, including the need for a dockyard, sporting facilities for the youth, a proper waste management facility, an outdoor gym for women, and improving healthcare services. The council members highlighted that the administration’s decision to redesign the harbour of the island to cater to the wishes of the people is a testament to the administration’s commitment to serving their needs.
Briefing the council and WDC members about the latest on the island’s developmental plans, President Solih noted that, despite a lengthy harbour development project, the administration accorded priority to delivering on the wishes of the people. Assuring them of expediting the project to develop a new football stadium, the president said the administration would seek ways to address their concerns.
The president’s visit to Landhoo is the second stop on his two-day tour of Noonu Atoll. He is accompanied on the visit by some members of his cabinet and senior government officials.
