Heena Waleed, Chief Spokesperson at the President's Office, emphasized that ensuring the safety and security of the streets in the Maldives, particularly in Male', is a top priority for President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu.

During a press conference on Wednesday, Heena highlighted the President’s strong commitment to road safety. She referenced a recent post on the social media platform 'X' that underscored the importance of secure roadways.

Heena expressed confidence in identifying effective solutions, noting that the President has directed relevant authorities to implement eight specific measures in response to recent incidents. These measures include increasing police presence on the streets, enhancing monitoring activities, and extending these initiatives to the islands. She also stressed the need for the public to comply with existing road safety laws and to take personal responsibility for their own safety.

These initiatives demonstrate the government’s dedication to improving public safety and fostering a secure environment for all citizens in the Maldives.
