A grim yet probable future...


In what could be touted as quite a unique and splashing venue for a meeting , to say the least , Maldives Cabinet went under water rather satirically to discuss several threats posed by global heating and rising aqua level to the low lying country.
The meeting was headed by the President Mohamed Nasheed.The meeting took place at a depth as low as 6 meters (20 feet) not to mention under water.
The meeting clearly had an objective approach.There were no lengthy speeches being delivered or any diplomatic agendas.As a matter of fact , the mode of communication was simple hand gestures.Evidently it was an apprehension of what could be a nightmarish future standings.
The catchy feat has certainly caught enough notice.But the million dollar question is : How far it goes in achieving its intent?
