Recent parliamentary election campaign in the Maldives was mainly based on one debate, but in two different ways. MDP was campaigning hard based on the fact that it is necessary for them to get a majority in the majilis in order to fulfill their presidential campaign pledges. They believe that opposition will try to hinder their projects and make things difficult for the government. On the other hand, DRP was promoting the fact that an opposition party can only make the government accountable. So that pledges can be fulfilled.
Well the two arguments can be acceptable based on their honesty. Both the parties seem focusing to fulfill the pledges. DRP questions who do not want proper housing, transportation system, cheap healthcare, eradication of drugs etc. They too also want those services to be provided to the people.
Well my point here is everyone agrees housing but the two parties may have different housing policies. MDP for example wants this pledge to be achieved through privatization and most of their economic activities and pledges are designed in such a way that they fulfill those through privatization. But certainly DRP is against it. They have been misleading people on this privatization policy comparing it as selling the national assets to foreigners and hence affecting the Islamic faith and the sovereignty of the country. They have gone this far. So how are they going to help the government to deliver their pledges?
Opposition parties need to understand the fact that this government came to power with a different policy to achieve the things the people of this country deserves so long. We will be watching closely the majilis debates and let’s see what happens.
