26:27 - This is definitely not, what the Maldives are well known of. We had been to Hulhulmale as well and stayed very close to the "beach" (which is not a proper beach) which you show in the video. A lot better beaches you will have on Maafushi or even better in Gulhi Island. By the way, ... Male, the capital is also worth a visit, where you can meet many differnt people, have a lot of reataurants and so on. Enjoy your vacation, Ken, but please: be more prepared, when you arrive at a new country, so that you will not miss important things !

Yes. Climate change has caused a lot of damage to Maldives like beach erosions. There were theories that climate change would affect Maldives and would be under water in few years. And that’s one of the reasons Hulhumale’ was build from scratch. To prevent beach erosion we have taken precautions which have led us to save our islands.

Beautiful beautiful place on earth! You might need to buy a pair of flipflop when walking on the island. It happened to me as well this July when I visited Qing Dao china, there was unexpected thunderstorm all of sudden, my asics shoes got totally wet, I tried to use hairdryer to dry out when returned to my hotel. It helped a bit, but there's a smell on the shoes. I had to threw them away eventually after my traveling. Looking forward to your next video about Maldives.

So raising the sand from the sea in order to construct an artificial island and build hotels on top has been replicated around the world. Varadero Cuba has been expanded by a 50 kilometers peninsula, similarly Punta Cana Dominican Republic has built an artificial stretch of land called Bavaro, Hong Kong has erected an artificial island and has built a new airport on top and there are many other places around the world that have embarked upon a similar venture. Thank you very much and enjoy your evening 😊😊
