While the social media war on the Maldives takes on epic proportions, a small piece of tidbit escaped everyone’s notice!!! Immediately after the mocking of PM Modi and India, the island republic found itself in a truly embarrassing moment! Not only had it landed itself in a self-defeating debate, but it was also in the crosshairs of a suspected cyberattack!

Who instigated the attack?? We don’t care!!! Did Indians bully Maldivian authorities??? We don’t know!!! However, we do know that this Saturday was eventful for the Maldivians as its essential government websites were crippled!!! Let’s talk about this suspected digital onslaught following a diplomatic tension that is boiling the island nation in hot water!!!

A Maldivian Cyber Saga

Maldives Govt Websites Restored after 'Unexpected Technical Disruption' - News18

On 6th January 2024, the official websites of the Maldivian President Muizzu, the Foreign Ministry, and the Tourism Ministry faced hours of inaccessibility. The official reason was ‘technical issues’.

Maldivian Official Wesites Were Hacked hot on the heels of the foul-mouthed diatribe on social media by Maldivian MPs.

Thus, all logic points towards a suspected cyberattack! Was This India Flexing Its Cyber Muscles??!!

After several hours of forced downtime, the websites came online through the efforts of The National Centre for Information Technology (NCIT). The diligent efforts of the NCIT team helped stem rumors of the depth of cyber invasion due to the suspected attack!

Whoever flexed their cyber muscles, it has definitely led Muizzu’s pack to tuck tail and lay low!! As the cyber dust settled, Maldivian Muizzu made a huge deal of his visit to China. Usually, any elected President of Maldives visits India in his first foreign visit. Muizzu went to Turkey!!! Do you know why??? Well, like all Islamists, he also thinks he is a descendant of the Arabs and Turks! While the same Turks and Arabs ridicule these individuals as lower than low ‘convertee crap’!!!!

Now, on 8th January 2024, Muizzu’s next visit was to his ‘Aaka’ – China. Although saying that he went to meet CCP leaders also means the same thing!!! These two moves have escalated tensions between Maldives and India. As a deliberate ‘India Out’ Hinduphobic campaigner, Muizzu is unable to digest the reality that the island republic without India is a handicapped nation. Thus, the move to find assistance with India’s hostile neighbor is a bad move in Chinese Checker! However, by presenting himself as an anti-India politician, he has burnt several bridges with India.

Thus, to present himself as an unbiased leader, Muizzu suspended the MPs responsible for the inflammatory remarks against India and PM Modi. This move helps him walk the narrowing corridors of diplomacy with Bharat. Muizzu should know that its independence is possible due to its proximity to Bharat! Had it been closer to China, it would be finding itself under communist law!

In Summary


Netizens are keenly observing this visit and its outcomes. The pro-India faction of Maldives shakes its head at the various faux pas of the new Muizzu government. The ‘India Out’ zealots continue to mess up diplomatic ties.

  • In the aftermath of it all, Maldives should first acknowledge that its civilizational identity is interlinked with Bharat’s Sanatani history.
  • Secondly, it should understand that Hinduphobia is not the key to success, despite what the ‘peacefuls’ of the world project!!!
  • Lastly, it should be known that a simple sneeze from Mother Nature or a flick from Bharat can put it in grave existential danger.

These are not threats but a Maldivian reality! Does Muizzu want Bharat to ignore its pleas for SOS next time?!! Does he comprehend that when India walks out so will Indian money and tourists??!! Is Muizzu wanting to nurture the Chinese snake in his garden? Or is he the snake planted by the Chinese in the Maldivian garden??? Let’s wait to see if the Chinese Muzzle Muizzu or not!

The social media insult, the cyber attack, the trend war, and the suspension of MPs are part of the Great Maldivian Drama! These events underscore the interplay of geopolitics in the digital age. Let’s hope Muizzu comes face to face with a true Islamophobic China that wants to use the island nation as its Go-To-Retail-Shop! Will he run back begging for alms at Bharat’s feet?! If he does so neither will the Chinese who funded his elections nor the Indian whom his goons insulted would forgive him! A clear case of Catch-22 in world geopolitics. For now, let’s stay tuned for the next episodes in the unfolding drama that is Mocking Maldives to its face!
