The tender for the development of tourism in Farumuli, an island located in the lagoon of Noonu Atoll Maafaru, was opened on Wednesday.
Farumuli was under the administrative jurisdiction of Maafaru until 2024. The island was separated from Maafaru in July last year following a decision by the government to allocate the island for tourism development.

On Wednesday, the Ministry of Tourism announced the opening of the tender for the development and operation of a tourist resort on the island.
