The canned tuna cases distributed by the government as a Ramadan gift have been collected by 15,000 households in the Male' region.
Minister of Cities, Local Government and Public Works Adam Shareef Umar revealed in a post on X that a total of 15,000 canned tuna cases have been provided so far from the 13 centers established to distribute them in the Male' region.
In his post, the Minister happily noted that the distribution is proceeding very smoothly with the current arrangements, and stated that in the days leading up to Ramadan, attention will be given to making it easier for families in the community requiring special assistance. The Minister also stated that arrangements will continue until all households in the Male' region receive a case of canned tuna.
"I assure you that it will continue until all households receive it. All households will receive the Ramadan gift," the Minister stated.
The distribution of canned tuna cases to the Male' region began on the 20th of this month. Canned tuna cases are now issued by taking a token in advance from a designated portal. Therefore, individuals going to collect the canned tuna cases for their households can now easily collect them in token order.
Giving a case of canned tuna to every household as a Ramadan gift is a special pledge of President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu. In accordance with this pledge, households are being gifted a case of 48 cans of 180g Mifco Fasmeeru brand tuna in oil. In addition to Male', canned tuna cases are currently being distributed in various regions of the Maldives.
