President Dr Mohamed Muizzu has ordered the reform of regulations of bringing patients to the capital city for emergency treatment.

President Dr Muizzu requested a thorough review from the relevant authorities of the preceding events during the patient’s emergency transfer from GA. Vilingili Island to Malé City. He additionally implored the authorities to revise and modify the current protocols surrounding the emergency transfers of patients requiring immediate medical attention to prevent such incidents henceforth.

Furthermore, the President directed Island Aviation Services Ltd. to establish a protocol prioritising timely patient transportation for critical patients without requiring the completion of the approval process by administrative bodies, such as Aasandha.
