“Aneh dhivehirajje” arguably is the most popular and successful marketing slogan ever used in the Maldives; all commercial, social and political campaigns included.
If “aneh dhivehrajje” means other Maldives; as in a different physical location, pardon me for saying this, it has to be Trivandrum, India...
Tomorrow I’m flying there with my parents for a medical treatment. I will be there for about 2 weeks. I have been there couple of times before, and I suspect there are not many Maldivians who haven’t been there for at least once.
The medical tourism for Maldivians there is so developed and wide spread that you can see advertisements written in Dhivehi script all over the city. I’ve been told that Maldivians contribute significantly to the GDP of the City.
Well, to make things clear I’m only going there because I have to… for ordinary Maldivians certain medical treatments are only available in the “other Maldives”.
