06From the President

A message to the people of Ihavandhoo

Welcome to the website of HA. Ihavandhoo Council. Our promise for this term is simple: every service, decision and rufiyaa spent by the council should be visible to every resident, in your own language, from your own phone.

The harbour upgrade, the land reclamation and the cold storage will shape our island for the next generation. We will report on each of them honestly, including where we are behind schedule.

Please use this website to apply for services, follow notices and tell us what needs fixing. Your council is here to serve you.

Hussain Nazim

President, HA. Ihavandhoo Council
