If from each atoll 5 islands were given to be developed as resorts and the income / revenue of this is benefiting directly to the islanders in these atolls (and not collected by the central government), then the whole of Maldives, will be developed and every Maldivian will be rich...not just money in the hands of a few individuals, who want all the resorts and islands to themselves...05 islands is not much for each atoll comparatively, as the Maldives has nearly, 1,192 islands...This is a good concept of an idea, which i propose, but i have not undertaken a feasibility study, to see, how many resorts will actually be required.
Also, the Gini coefficient is very high in Maldives...for those who doesn't know what a Gini coefficient is commonly used as a measure of inequality of income or wealth.
Also, GDP per capita one of the highest in south asia is in the Maldives. GDP per capita as per Wikipedia is USD 5,973 (2011 estimate)
What does GDP per capita mean?
GDP = Gross Domestic Product
per capita = per person
This means - the average amount that the country produces per citizen.
The government think we're dumb, stupid, uneducated bunch of fools, but it's time the business men and government re-think their policies, towards the benefit of the common man.
