He said that he booked the trip to Maldives few months ago and COVID-19 happened. He needed information on whether to come to Maldives, what’s going on in Maldives, how Maldives government was handling it.
“I have been tracking the COVID-19 in Maldives through health ministry website and tourism industry website and they have been putting up updates every 10 hours. I like the fact that they have been detailing what the updates can tell which basically gives me comfort to listen as they know what they are doing. The government is working like a well oiled machine”, he added.
He highlighted that the one reason why he made the trip was because he was well informed, and marked that tourists will appreciate that.
