In a resounding testament to President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu’s results-driven leadership, the RTL ferry service has been officially launched in Baa Atoll—well within the promised timeline, marking a major milestone in the administration’s nationwide transport revolution.
President Muizzu first announced this commitment during his visit to R. Ungoofaaru on January 22, 2025, where he pledged that the Raajje Transport Link (RTL) ferry service in Baa Atoll would be operational before the end of July. Reinforcing this pledge during his Presidential Address at the opening of Parliament earlier this year, the President once again assured the nation that comprehensive transport solutions would reach every corner of the country.
Further affirming this timeline, President Muizzu reiterated the July launch date in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on June 26, 2025—just a month ahead of delivery.
True to his word, the RTL service in Baa Atoll is now officially live.
Chief Spokesperson at the President’s Office, Heena Waleed, celebrated the moment in a statement on X, highlighting that today’s launch reflects President Muizzu’s unwavering commitment to fulfilling promises made to the Maldivian people.
The extension of the RTL network to Baa Atoll underscores the administration’s broader national vision—building an interconnected, inclusive Maldives where island communities have seamless access to essential services and opportunities.
While past governments often made lofty promises with little to show, President Muizzu is steadily turning pledges into progress. The Baa Atoll ferry launch stands as yet another example of a presidency defined by action, delivery, and transformative change.
