The Maldives constitution mandates that all citizens of Maldives must be Muslims

[PeteWaldo]

Something that I didn't know that I found of particular interest.

"The Maldives constitution mandates that all citizens of Maldives must be Muslims."

And thus not surprisingly:

"There have been repeated reports on Maldives government publicly whipping of women and the Maldives is in the bottom rankings of nations with a global gender gap."

And even less surprisingly:

"The Maldives is also a nation that, on May 13, 2010, was elected to be part of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC)."

You need to go to the link-rich web page on for one:

As far as factual information about Maldives goes, that page is information rich.

The rest of their website looks more like "A Common Word" outreach.
