President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih inaugurated the completion of several infrastructure projects on Henbadhoo Island in Noonu Atoll on Saturday. These projects include the water supply network, coastal protection, an upgraded harbour, and the FENAKA Office and powerhouse. The completion of these projects was marked during the President's visit to the island this afternoon as part of his ongoing trip to the atoll.
The water supply network on Henbadhoo Island was contracted to the Malé Water and Sewerage Company (MWSC). The project has now been completed, with water supply connections established for 162 households on the island and the service fully operationalised. The coastal protection project encompassed the development of a 235-metre revetment and 25-metre groynes.
The upgraded harbour, inaugurated today, was built to modern standards by the Maldives Transport and Contracting Company (MTCC). The harbour and its channel's basin were further dredged, port lights were installed, and pavement was constructed.
Following the harbour's inauguration, President Solih opened the new FENAKA Office and powerhouse. The facilities are equipped with modern amenities, with the office able to accommodate 15 staff members and the powerhouse having a power generation capacity of 498 kilowatts.
Under President Solih's leadership, the administration has made significant progress towards achieving equitable development across all inhabited islands in the Maldives. This includes improving the quality of life for citizens and empowering them to lead dignified lives. During his visits to various islands, President Solih is officially inaugurating the completion of numerous projects and services.
