Former DCP Rishwan Appointed as MPL Managing Director

The Privatization and Corporatization Board (PCB) has appointed former Deputy Commissioner of Police Mohamed Rishwan as the new Managing Director and Board Director of Maldives Ports Limited (MPL). The announcement was made on last Wednesday following the dismissal of his predecessor, Mohamed Wajeeh.

Rishwan, who has held key government positions in the past, brings a wealth of experience to his new role. He previously served as Deputy Commissioner of Police during former President Mohamed Nasheed’s administration before resigning in July 2011. He also held the position of Deputy CEO at Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital (IGMH) during former President Abdulla Yameen’s tenure.

With his new role at MPL, Rishwan will be responsible for overseeing the country’s primary port operations and implementing the government's strategic vision for the sector.
