This is a sight I witnessed yesterday. It must be said that the safety of the workers are a responsibility of the businesses in as much as they are of the government. Failures in worker safety are so common around here. It is time that these unfair practices are looked into with harsh penalties on businesses that put employees at risk.

Stock Brokers Maldives{SBM} which was at Manaam Building was recently moved to 3rd Floor, STO Trade Centre. Just yeterday it has had a very vibrant and colourful Facelift.

A few days ago I came across a Maldive Gas truck loaded with more gas cylinders than the truck can neatly carry on its deck. As noticeable from the picture below one stack of cylinders stood above the deck and were tied by rope. This is not good enough ~ companies that take unjustified risks must be held responsible. Besides, should a risk materialise, victims are likely to be left in far worse condition than they were and they must be compensated. Third party insurance must therefore be forced.

I happen to visit the Maldives National Art Gallery yesterday and came across these two very wonderful paitings that amazed me.

Beyrege's super iftar 2009 turned out to be a huge success with as many as 60 people turning up. More than 180 Photos from this even are now viewable on this site and on facebook. The inceasing number of successul events have led me to creating a new parent folder dedicated to the House of Beyrege.

Thanks to everyone who contributed financially and to all those who helped in making the event a successful one.

Until next time, Cheers.
