Nasheed's shareholding Ocean Publishers to release weekly magazine

Ocean Publishers, which the Parliament Speaker, former President Mohamed Nasheed is a shareholder to, has announced their decision to release a magazine.

The weekly magazine, titled ‘Ocean Weekly’ will see a new edition released every Friday. The first edition of the magazine is set to be released this Friday.

A senior member of Ocean Weekly’s editorial told Sun that the magazine will cover articles on social issues in Maldivian society.

The member detailed that the articles in the magazine will include Nasheed’s ideas. The possibility of seeing Nasheed’s articles in the magazine in the future was also noted by the member.

“However, Speaker Nasheed is not a writer for this magazine,” the member had said.

Ocean Weekly’s first edition’s main theme is the taxation system. The magazine is priced at MVR 50.

Nasheed expresses an avid interest in writing, and has previously worked as a journalist.
