President of the Maldives Abdulla Gayoom has suspended the development of a luxury surf resort in the Thanburudhoo Island (Kaafu Atoll), home to the world-class surf spots of Sultans and Honkeys. The Tourism Ministry cancelled the lease agreement with Telos Investment. The authorities informed that the private investors didn’t develop the resort within the agreed duration. “This will allow local surfers, surfers from around the world and organizers of surf competition to use the island in the best possible way,” notes the Ministry of Tourism.
