Height of hypocrisy in the Maldivian tourism industry and prejudice against local performing artists. Elizabeth (Liz) Colton

Getting a Filipino to sing Dhivehi songs to tourists who don’t understand the language and what is being sung in additional to the horrible accompanying guitar

Fostering a prolific & productive platform for Maldivian musicians, both local & resort-based, is essential. Establishing collaboration between institutions & the Musicians’ Union of Maldives within a structured framework can provide a solid foundation. NCA Ministry of Tourism @MoYEIAmv

Foreign talent should only be allowed if local talent is not available. I do understand there aren’t string quartets here, and that’s a different story. But crappy foreign bands for less money are hired by our biggest industry. This issue has to be addressed in the tourism act.
