 MY YOUTUBE VENTURES

It has been a couple of months, since I have posted on this blog, and I know it may have been quite excruciating for one or two of my recurring viewers. However, it is not without good reason. I have recently started a YouTube channel, on where i plan to upload a documentary about SUVADIVE.  


Some of you may know that I had started a project about this (SUVADIVE) to be posted on this blog, but, due to technical difficulties, couldn't be continued. 

I plan to get Support from the British National Museum and and the National Museum of Maldives, and interview the remaining survivors, whilst also travelling across the area to better understand this topic. In hindsight, this will be perilous, and quite expensive. 

Just to get started, I have uploaded some YouTube Shorts that may be irrelevant to the main objective, and plan to do so, so as to sort of jumpstart the channel. Till today, the channel has generated 202 views, and gained 7 subscribers. 

I hope that the delay for this message is forgiven, and hopefully, you will go forward with me on this journey.

A Look Into The Past (Addu City)

What is "Addu"?  Addu, is the southern most island of the Maldives . Whilst having the second biggest land area in the country, the inhabitants of this atoll speak a Maldivian dialect called "Addu bahuruva" ( pronunciation: addoo ba hu ru vah) . This atoll had given part of its land to the RAF, as part of the protectorate agreement the English had offered. Before they left, the English bought a piece of land from Addu for themselves forever. This piece of land can be seen today. Now, Addu is one of the main cities of Maldives, and is continuing to strive to success. The Period of English Occupation The operation to build this base started in the August of 1941, by the Royal Navy construction crews, on the thick jungle which is now known as Gan International Airport in Feydhoo. In 1957, this operation was turned on over the Royal Air Force (RAF). Though it had a relatively small runway, it could land all aircraft in the British inventory.  Due to staff shortages, the...
