Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation (MMPRC) has appointed two new members to its board, marking a notable shift in its leadership structure.

Abdul Sameeu Imad and Aishath Hameed are the newly appointed board members, joining amidst a series of changes at MMPRC. Earlier this year, Fathimath Thaufeeq, who had served as Managing Director since the start of the current administration, was relieved of her duties in May. This decision was followed by the resignation of MMPRC Chairperson Aisha Nurain Janah and board member Rafil Mohamed in April.

Following Fathimath’s dismissal, Bassam Adam, Deputy Managing Director of MMPRC, assumed interim management responsibilities. However, June saw Ibrahim Shiury, Deputy President of the Table Tennis Association, appointed as the new Managing Director of MMPRC.

This strategic realignment within MMPRC reflects ongoing efforts to navigate challenges and optimize opportunities in the dynamic tourism landscape of the Maldives. As the country continues to attract global attention for its pristine beaches and luxury resorts, the role of MMPRC remains pivotal in shaping and sustaining its tourism appeal on the world stage.
