Legalizing Alcoholoic Bevareges and building places of worship for other faiths

Legalizing Alcoholoic Bevareges and building places of worship for other faiths
1- Legalizing Alcohol
Maldives is at a crisis when it comes to drugs. More that 60% of the youths are involved in drug abuse, each and every one of our nation know a drug addict or have a family member who is an addict. The former government played a lovely role in making sure the youths won’t interfere with their work and would be busy with intoxicants.
We all know we have no legal system selling drugs yet the dealers have a way to satisfy their customers. Upon this we are going to legalize the selling of Alcoholic drinks in inhabited islands other than the resorts. Even now we have foreigners selling intoxicants, legalizing Alcoholic beverages we are opening an easy door for them. This would obviously create more social problems and would result in violence. Why should we throw our self into danger? Tourists can drink at resorts if they “must”, can’t they? Shouldn’t the government concentrate on serving the citizens of this country rather than the tourists? (After all there won’t be any tourists if it wasn’t for our nation, there won’t be a nation without citizens)


2- Building places of worship for all religions

Letting other faiths build places of worship for followers of their faiths and letting other faiths practice their faith openly in Maldives. Maldives is famous for a nation of peace we are citizen of one nation with one faith under one flag, it’s sad some of us who support this idea of building places of worship for other faiths have never thought about our land and how small it is. Maldives is so small it’s not even enough for Maldivians so upon that shall we let other build their place of worship? As far as Maldivians are concerned a non-Muslim cant be a Maldivian so all the non-Muslims would be considered foreigners. Why should we let our people suffer just so that some foreigners can enjoy in our land???? . Maldivians have experienced how dangerous it is to have religious differences in any community especially in a community like ours when a terrorist attack struck Sultan Park. (It seems the current government’s ministry of Islamic affairs are doing a good job to educate people on this and stop these stupid people and their ideology corrupting our community) so what if we have others practicing their faiths openly?? No matter what we say sooner or later either we or they are going to cross the lines and it would end up in violence and bloodshed. Why not let things be as they are and foreigners can practice their faiths as they are doing it now. After all Maldives is a nation build on the basics of Islam and all laws and regulations must be based on rulings of Islam and the scholars all over the world agree for a country like Maldives, we must never allow it to happen. We have enough problems to deal with why invite more???

Not all Maldivians are Muslim. There are Christiand and Buddhist Maldivians. Why should they have to hide their faith?

So many Maldivians (including you probably) jumped at the opportunity to bash Switzerland because a referendum passed to ban building minarets. Switzerland is a secular country and totally tolerant of all faiths. They did not ban building mosques. They just banned minarets (maybe to show the secularity in the skylines of Swiss cities.) But Muslims and people of other faiths are free to build structures and worship. Maldives doesn't allow worship in any other religion publicly or building places of worship or any Maldivian to follow his or her own beliefs. This is the dictionary meaning of hypocrisy.
