President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu says he had delivered almost all of his ‘Hafuthaa 14’, or first 100-day pledges, providing assurance that he will deliver all his pledges.

On Tuesday’s episode of the Q&A program ‘Raeesge Javaabu’, President Muizzu was asked about the percentage of pledges he has fulfilled.

He responded that his administration set 161 ‘Hafuthaa 14’ roadmap pledges.

He said he has delivered 155 of the goals, and the rest are close to completion.

President Muizzu said that there’s still much left to be done in the future.

“There’s a lot of work initiated regarding initiatives planned for the next year and the next couple of years. The different ministries and companies have also begun fast work on the initiatives requested by the people during my tour of the atolls,” he said.

President Muizzu has published all his pledges, including all the promises he made during the 2023 presidential campaign, in the form of a book.

According to the President’s Office website, the progress on many of the pending goals on the ‘Hafulhaa 14’ roadmap are at 99 percent.

Some of the pending goals include announcing a policy of maintaining short- and long-term debt levels in accordance with the advice and guidance of international financial institutions to ensure the smooth functioning of the economy and fiscal strategies, and drafting a mental healthcare bill.

Meanwhile, the progress on one of the biggest pledges – the appeal against the ruling of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) that resulted in the loss of part of the southern boundary of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the Maldives – is listed as 80 percent.
