Of note, the submitted list includes individuals who have transitioned from their roles as parliamentarians to now serving in Muizzu’s cabinet. This shift has reduced the ruling party coalition’s representation in the parliament to just five MPs.
Addressing the media in the office’s inaugural press conference, the President’s Office Public Policy Undersecretary expressed confidence in garnering the cooperation of the opposition Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP), which currently holds the majority in parliament.
During the presidential inauguration, Parliament Speaker Mohamed Aslam affirmed a commitment to extending cooperation to the new administration.
