Maldives: Pre-election Statement, Local Elections, Transparency International (2011)
This statement was released by Transparency International. TI coordinated a nation-wide domestic election observation of the 2011 Local Council Election, which involved 105 observers in 41 islands over all seven provinces. The observers expressed their concern on the general environment of mistrust between the election administration, the government, political parties, candidates and the media, which translates into a lack of trust towards the electoral system itself.
