		<description>I have no issues with promoting volleyball in the Maldives. However I have a serious issue, a concern shared by many in the city of Male&#039;, over the disregard of those who gave the authority, and those who planned and constructed this concrete monstrosity we now call a volleyball court slammed right in the middle of raalhugandu. 

That area was the only place in Male where you could look over the horizon and not be distracted by some concrete structure. Now even that small bit of pleasure has been taken from us. The CONCRETE PERMANENT VOLLEYBALL COURT could have been built by asking the people where they would like such a structure to be built through a democratic process. SLAP BANG THERE IT IS POLICY DOES NOT WORK and I am grieved by the fact that this Government allowed it.Especially when we are talking about the lack of open spaces.

Has anyone seen beach volleyball courts built like a stadium? No. it would be indoor volleyball not beach volleyball if it had concrete walls built. My only guess is this will lead to further disharmony within our population by allowing some of the public to view it, and others to stay out due to capacity shortages with the seating. I strongly protest, along with many others, against this concrete eye sore ruining the only beautiful view we have in Male&#039;.</description>
