The fact of the matter is that several audit reports have been produced that show the most appalling instances of abuse of public funds. In any other country the culprits would be forced to resign immediately. Or if they are out of office, as they are in this country, kill themselves in shame.
In Maldives we appear to excuse their actions. It is to be expected from the obnoxious Gayoomists. Instead we criticise the president and his government for the way in which he seeks to take action. Its far worse than buying several thousands of dollars worth of designer nappies and having them shipped over here.
The police, the prosecutor-general and the Anti-Corruption Commission have failed to bring the crooks to book. The Presidential Commission, with high-level backing, is about to do just that. We should allow them to get on with their task.

good point.
We Maldivians seem to have forgotten the way in which the previous government abused its power, tortured people and embezzled millions of Government funds, all for designer nappies and six to seven thousand singapore dollars worth spectacles.
Those who did that should be brought to justice. We Maldivians deserve that even if the Maumoonists do NOT!
