It
was reported in Malé yesterday that a mall built by an
alleged Christian missionary organisation in Kuluduffurhi island
in the Maldives is to be demolished at the orders of the Maldive
mullahs.
The irony is that the Maldive authorities themselves had spent
about $12,500 on the foundation of the mall (source:
Haveeru newspaper). The prefabricated mall was facilitated
by a British charity called Maldives Aid established in the wake
of the Boxing Day tsunami of 2004 (click
here for background). As far as can be ascertained,
Maldives Aid does not have any Christian affiliation. Nevertheless
the Maldive authorities accuse a founding trustee of Maldives
Aid, David Hardingham of being both a Christian missionary and
an Islamic terrorist.
Mr Hardingham must be the only person in the world to hold that
dubious distinction.
It would be a wothwhile exercise to determine if Mr Hardingham
is a Sunni Christian or a Shia Christian. Perhaps he is an Ismaili
Borah Christian.
A thought just crossed the mind! All this
fuss is not about Christian missionaries at all. David Hardingham's
name ends with the three letters "HAM". Mr Hardingham
must be a butcher who deals in hams. He must be conspiring to
feed the good people of Kuluduffurhi the dreaded oorumas-
pig flesh. (see note)

Fareesha O'Shea of Maldives Culture was once arrested by Maldive
Police who accused her of importing a Buddha statute used for
Christian worship, from Indonesia. So any permutation or combination
of religious affiliation is possible with the Maldive authorities.
One has to wonder why the Maldive authorities have not resorted
to one of the traditional fanditha black magic rituals
to purge the Christian effects left by the Islamic Christian missionaries.
There is an array of old fanditha black magic spells
still used in the Maldives that can be conjured up to cast out
any evil spells of the alleged Christian missionaries.
If all else fails a quick trip to Mecca to kiss the Black Stone
will be sufficient to absolve one of all undesirable effects of
the Islamic Druid Christian pig butcher. That will, however, be
possible after enduring the customary humiliation by Saudi officials
who spit at Maldive pilgrims and throw their passports on the
floor for being "subhuman" southern Asians.
"Hindu" warship accepted
In
a historic military transaction, India today transferred its
naval ship the Tillanchang to the control of the Maldives National
Security Service coast guard. The Maldive authorities are to
name the ship Huravee in memory of the King Siri Kula Ran Meeba
Audha Keerithi Katthiri Bavana (reigned 1759-1766) who was also
known as Dom Bandaarain. He was the most illustrious king of
our dynasty the Royal House of Huragey and Hilaaly.
By naming the ship after the King, unwittingly, or perhaps deliberately,
the Maldive authorities may be making a political statement.
The King was the last Maldive general to defeat an occupying
force from the Indian subcontinent. In 1752 he ended a short
lived occupation of Malé by the Ali Raja of Cannanore.
In 1766 Dom Bandaarain acceded to the throne, restoring the
dynasty of his family's last crowned head, the King Dom Philippe,
who was deposed in 1632. Dom Bandaarain's descendants reigned
in the Maldives until 1968.
It is also interesting that the ship was received on behalf
of the Maldives by Ismail Shafeeu, one of the six descendants
of Dom Bandarain serving in the current republican cabinet.
Shafeeu's mother the Princess Tuttu Goma, who is the grand daughter
of the King Mohamed Imadudine VI was nominated in 1952 to succeed
to the throne. Her succesion was vetoed by Islamic mullahs.
In 1953, the mullahs closed the loophole that still allowed
a woman to rule in the Maldives as head of state.
The other descendants of Dom Bandaarain who are Shafeeu's ministerial
colleagues are, the Prince Mohamed "Dean" Waheedudine,
Abdullah Kamaludine, Mohamed Jaleel Zahiya Zareer and Mauroof
Jameel.
Note:
We were too hasty in passing a tongue-in-cheek
remark about pig flesh. Someone who had entered a comment
in Haveeru newspaper actually believes that Friends
of Maldives, the sister organisation of Maldives Aid
was in the business of feeding Maldivians the flesh
of swine. The comment follows:

"While Maldivians were desperate following the
tsunami, Friends of Maldives had distributed swine flesh
among Maldivians. This is something that is known to
many Maldivians"
