DRP’s presidential nominee Maumoon Abdul Qayyoom and his running mate Ahmed Thasmeen Ali’s launching of their campaign on 08.08.08 was slick in design but flabby in execution.
On the substantive side, the message - aa usminthakakah (for newer heights) - was not that convincing or effective either. Neither Qayyoom’s speech nor Thasmeen’s was the most inspiring I have seen.
Overall, the ceremony showed a lack of appreciation of the country’s political mood. Signs of fatigue, perhaps? The fresh ideas that I expected never came across.
If they can’t raise their bar, rivals should not find it too difficult to leap over it.

Rivals like candidates who cant think of a running mate, ....In one sense it can be said, the country will not benefit from such rivals
