The Rasmale’ project will not compromise national security, Homeland Security Minister Ali Ihusaan has said.
Responding to public discussion about the large-scale development, the minister stated that security arrangements will remain under the authority of Maldivian agencies. He indicated that any private security presence would operate within frameworks set by the government.
The project has drawn attention over its scale, foreign involvement and implications for land use and sovereignty. Officials have previously described Rasmale’ as a major housing and urban development initiative.
Minister Ihusaan’s remarks address concerns raised in public commentary and political debate. The government has maintained that all major infrastructure and security decisions rest with Maldivian authorities.
Further details on operational security protocols for the site are expected as construction advances. The project continues to be a focus of both development planning and public scrutiny.
