Fisherman’s Human Rights Day (10 December)
Is it just a mere coincidence that on his first few months of presidency the dictator Gayyoom declared 10th December as the Maldivan Fisherman’s Day? Or is this part of a larger ongoing plan to deceive Maldivians by distracting them from the Human Rights they have been deprived of?
For the last 3 decades the government and its media loudly celebrates 10th December as the Fisherman’s Day without even a single mention of the International Human Rights day which is systematically concealed. (UN mission in the Maldives is also to blame for this.)
Fishermen are one group of people whose rights are most neglected in this country. So pressure Gayyoom and his failed gang to step down immediately.
