Dealing with emergency situations in Maldives

Dear All

I am living and working in Maldives since May 2010. In last 6 years i have seen all political instability issues and other related concerns highlighted by media around the world from my own eyes.
As per my views I dont feel any insecure aspects where professional expats need to worry at all. Even the emergency state was declared for few months there was nothing to be highlighted event occurred to make expats insecure about anything.

To be honest Maldives expatriates are not able to get high income job/ business due limitations geopolitical,geographical location aspects. On the other hand all expats are able to live here peacefully and with more secured in comparison to Middle East / South Asian countries.

As far as crime rates are concern its nill in comparison to other South Asian countries and locals here are very much supportive and friendly in nature which make us working here even with limited income growth opportunities.

Health & Education sector need immediate improvements as still there is no proper facilities around the country to get best standard facilities which lead to travel other neighborhood countries for any medical treatment mostly .

Therefore what i suggest to all expatriates , just in good contacts with the local & your respective Embassy and be relax and live and work.
