He said that they, as the Atoll Council, have shared concerns as well but has yet to receive any response to it.

Atoll Council President, Abdulla Hussain said that the people of Haa Alifu Atoll want the Hoarafushi Airport to become one that can be used without difficulties, just as President Solih has promised.
