The tenth session of the Ahaa Forum, a joint initiative by the Presidents Office and Public Service Media (PSM), was held this evening, continuing the Administrations efforts to strengthen direct engagement between citizens and the Government.
The forum is designed to clarify Government policies for the public and create an environment where citizens can directly question Cabinet Ministers on matters affecting national development.
Tonights Ministerial panel featured Abdulla Rafiu, Minister of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Fitness; Hassan Zareer, Minister of Finance and Public Enterprises; and Ali Shareef, Minister of Climate Change, Environment and Energy.
Broadcast live for approximately two hours, the programme offered multiple avenues for public participation. In addition to general submissions, in-person attendees could address the Ministers directly, while online participants submitted questions through the PSM Air app. Throughout the evening, citizens raised numerous questions on pressing issues across various sectors, and the ministers provided detailed, up-to-date responses to address these concerns comprehensively.
The Ahaa Forum was introduced by President Dr Mohamed Muizzus Administration in 2024. Since its launch, the series has hosted several successful sessions, reinforcing the Governments commitment to transparency and open dialogue.
Complementing this Ministerial-level engagement, the Government also conducts Rayyithunge Adu, an ongoing programme that offers citizens the opportunity to meet directly with President Dr Muizzu to share their perspectives, raise concerns, and seek assistance.
