PEOPLES 12 ,13 or MDP’ EXCLUSIVE EVENT.
The Aug 12th & 13th in Maldives was pro-democracy demonstration that began on the night of 12 August, 2004, at the Republican Square.
MDP has no wright to claim Aug 12,13 as there exclusive event.
The MDP has officially celebrated Aug 12,13 in Alimas Kaanival stage last night with YELLOW.
Aug 12 is Maldives day of Democracy & 13th is Maldives day of Human rights.
The way MDP & its Government has celebrated the event colorfully but PEOPLE participation was very less.
That may be a responsible of event manager in MDP.
The people expected to hear key notes from people like Ibrahim Ismail,Gasim Ibrahim & rest of Majlis members lecture or there feelings about the matter.
President Nasheed was apear on the stage as a president not in the mood head democracy movement which may be not a bad concept according to present political situation.
People expected to have mike on the stage to share just public saying few words the Aug 12th 13th Strike.
After math of what has taken place in local political atmosphere in Maldives, lot of barriers & challenges of initiating other than MDP members to participate the event has defferent school thoughts. This “ICE” has break from MDP members & Government to make this event as PEOPLES EVENT not MDP & its Government exclusivity of Aug 12 & 13.
The reality is present MDP 80% members & there leaders has mega contribution to make this event happen in a extremely DANGEROUS atmosphere.
