He said the project, funded by aid from China, will provide a permanent solution to the long-standing flooding problem in the city. He further said that road developments for the islands would be implemented as planned every year.
The President also assured that the Government will continue to give top priority to assist all those affected by the rains.
He added that the the necessary efforts to reduce the damage to public life, houses, and property during such heavy rains will be carried out with the cooperation of all parties.
