Exclusive Interview:

UPFRONT with Haleembe

Mohamed Haleem Managing Director, D Blue Pvt Ltd

“Keeping a healthy relationship with the staff via inspiration and encouragement is an important decisive factor for staff retention just as much as monetary incentives”.

Floating Asia | Winter 2022

Upfront with Haleembe

1. Can you start us off by introducing yourself and telling us about how you first ventured into the industry?

2. What strategies did you employ to build brand loyalty from your customers?

Responsibility and passion for trading was the main motivation. As a teenager, I had a strong desire to become independent and earn. So, I started working in a shop at the age of 13 years, in 9th standard. The name of the shop was Vegapoint, in Galholhu, Male’. After some time, the job gave me sense of accomplishment, pride to have confidence and be more responsibly independent. Hence, I decided to be an explorer.

When I started my brand, I devoted special attention to assist my customers and cater to their needs. From ordering the shipment to specific requirements, tracking the order, attending the calls and delivering to the timeline.

I initially worked as a seafarer on a shipping cargo line for about 9 months and had the opportunity to travel to Europe.

Close to 24 Maldivians were working on the ship with me.

They had been working in the industry for about 19 years by then, and they would joke around by saying within my 9 months on the ship, I have almost faced all the challenges they had faced during their lifetime in the industry; from pirate invasions to being forced to jump out due to inconceivable weather conditions. It was an unforgettable good experience.

After my return, I joined Seagull Group through an opportunity from a childhood friend. Seagull Marine Masood offered me to work at Seagull Marine Shop - which is a subsidiary of Voyages Maldives. During my tenure, which was around 1994, my work included handling the shop, supplying boats, and maintaining the logistics of safari boats.

I worked with Seagull Marine for around 12 years before receiving an investment opportunity from Mr. Naeem (commonly known as Happy Market Naeem) with whom I started DBlue Marine. Till today, Naeem is the Chairman of DBlue Marine along with my two other partners, Rauf and Haneef.

I made a point to be with my customers through thick and thin. Some customers will call me at the crack of dawn due to emergencies such as battery failure or pump damage etc.

My customers would know that I will answer the call at any moment to find a solution. Through such services, I came to be known as a trusted supplier.

3. How did you come up with the name DBlue and why Honda?

My clientele knew that if I say it, I will do it. This was also the inspiration behind the brand name.

The name was made in mind to be short and simple. A name that would be easy to speak and remain in the minds of the people as a reliable business name. Today, as we proudly celebrate 15 of years of service, we represent over 50 brands that have an exclusive dealership for the Maldivian market.

While working with Seagull, I gained lot of experiences and knowledge about Honda engines as it was the brand Mr. Solah Shihab from Voyages Maldives was operating as an outboard engine in their dinghies. I learnt a lot about Honda’s qualities which inspired me to pursue the brand even after I resigned from Voyages Maldives.

4. Haleembe, you have a lot of experience and knowledge on Outboard Engines and Boating industry. What are the other areas of expertise in the industry?

Over the years I have provided freelance consultancy and got good deals to boat owners. I have personally visited, guided, and assisted the team with the best of my knowledge. The whole process of boat design, build, sourcing equipment, painting, marketing, and promotions. I spent a good amount of time in boatyards and boat building islands, as I have a passion for the industry.

By maintaining constant relationship with the clients and boating community in the Maldives, I also got the opportunity to meet inspiring individuals who wanted to build their own boats; namely Falaah, Handy Hassan, Blue Shark Shad etc.

5. How far has the Company’s Vision expanded from offering your products and services to Local Clients to International Parties?

Initially it was challenging to operate DBlue Marine Shop, as there were a lot of competitors and new brands being introduced in Male’ City at a cheaper price. However, we have remained rooted and continued to work the same way, to deliver quality products - on time - at affordable prices.

Today, we have expanded our business to the Maldives islands, resorts and guided the boatyard team on different areas. When it comes to wholesaling, we have distributors in Addu, Fuvahmulah, Thinadhoo, Kulhudhufushi, Naifaru etc. Of course, considering logistics in addition to other factors, there will be a slight price variation.

I always believe that satisfied customers will be loyal and repeated clients. Till date, I haven’t left any client unattended or mistreated. Even the most frustrated client who visits our showroom will find a solution.

Till date, when dealing with international parties and suppliers, it is my partners or me who would personally deal with them to source the international brands. It is vital to maintain professionalism, trust and integrity for the success of any business.

6. Tell us how you got the investment opportunity in a different industry and open Lizzy, to sell garments.

The idea of Lizzy was also conceived from the experience gained while working at Voyages Maldives. I was handling Sea Sports, and the items brought to be sold were chosen by myself after dealing with international clients. I was the one actively involved in all the communications to introduce Reef brand footwear into the Maldivian market.

I always loved apparel and simple brands. Hence, I always had an interest in the industry and looked forward to having my own shop in the long run. As a start, I opened Lizzard targeting to men, and this was followed by Lizzy for women.

28

Floating Asia | Winter 2022

7. Do you plan to expand your reach and open more outlets?

The main concern with the expansion is the limitation of passionate employees. This is a very technical industry, and we require people who can learn, apply, and deliver the knowledge to potential and existing clients.

For example, when it comes to a product like paint for the marine sector, the application of the paint is one of the key factors of sustainability and quality assurance. Keeping this in mind, we have refrained from selling paint to some market segments / clients that do not possess this expertise, to uphold our goodwill and brand value.

8. In terms of sales, do you think you are successful in reaching your goals? And how do you maintain your relationship with international brand franchise suppliers?

I believe we are successful. The technique we go for when acquiring any product is that we market and sell limited products to begin with and do a small market research to see the stock movements. Based on the demand, we make an agreement with the supplier for exclusive dealerships and then import a specific brand / product for long term. This way, we ensure the products we have on hand are in line with the demands and expectations of the market which in return ensures smooth sales.

Till date we have always maintained a healthy relationship with our suppliers to ensure effective communication and a mutually beneficial association. We try to meet all our suppliers at least once a year through pre-arranged meetings or random meet-ups at international events like boat shows such as METS in Amsterdam where industry experts worldwide (US, Europe, Korea etc.) attend.

9. How do you ensure customer satisfaction is met?

The biggest strength in achieving customer satisfaction is trust and integrity. I have been able to build a good relationship with most of the clients and many refer to me as a brand rather than another service provider. We have a customer base of more than 5000 and still some customers would visit our showroom and go if they are unable to meet me and would again return when I am available to consult before purchasing the product. Seafarers and boating community is a different market and still we have the same pioneers who have been in the industry in Maldives.

Similarly, after-sales services are just as important as the sales itself. When a problem arises after the sale of the product, the issue must be addressed promptly with a solution. Not passed from person to person. I am confident to say myself and team practice this important etiquette in our business, which is one of the key strengths for customer retention.

Upfront with Haleembe

10. How do you explain DBlue Marine’s focus on the environment, health safety and security? Have you implemented any policies or are you practicing any sustainable activity in your business?

We have opted for paper bags over plastic bags, in support of achieving sustainability goals for the country. It’s always on our mind, however considering the magnitude of change, it will take time for us to come up with and implement more policies supporting this agenda.

11. What would you say is the biggest success in the history of D Blue Marine and its products? Staff turnover and retention is a key concern for all the businesses? Do you have staff development and training programs?

My staff. That is my biggest achievement and my greatest strength. I have been lucky to have my family members, good staffs and to have successfully retained a wonderful team over the years. My younger brother Hassan Haleem has been working with me for long and is the Manager of DBlue Marine.

Keeping a healthy relationship with the staff via inspiration and encouragement is an important decisive factor for staff retention just as much as monetary incentives. We have been fortunate enough to adapt to both altitudes which is one of the strengths for low staff turnover, and development of good staffs in DBlue Marine over the last 15 years.

12. Last but not the least, you are known to be a very calm and composed person. What is your secret?

I always try to control my anger. It’s between me and God. I try my best not to react until the person cools down so that the situation can be handled smoothly. And I always maintain my dignity. I make it a point not to deal with favours. Whatever I do for the other person aside from business trades is from my heart and with no expectation of return. Alhamdulillah, no one from the industry can point a finger at me for any sort of misdemeanor. It’s a blessing till today.

Fundamental work ethics behind world-class service for international products, esp technical products for boats is attentive staff with good product knowledge and discipline.

Whenever a new product or brand is launched, we make sure to convey our staff the with the product knowledge, provide on the job training and encourage them in product refreshing programs, to follow up with the latest updates. So, they are always absorbing new information and the learning curve is constant. If my team doesn’t know any information, they can always ask me.

IN CONVERSATION WITH

Salah Shihab

Managing Director and Co-Founder, Voyages Maldives 1. What are the most profound moments in the history of Voyages for you?

There are so many, however the most significant was getting the opportunity to own a safari boat, the partnerships we embarked on with Francorosso and British Airways as our first tour operator and Airline respectively, and our partnership with Kuoni in 1984. The best news is that these partnerships remain to date over the decades. The next big moment was the successful bidding and attaining the leasehold for Athuruga.

The big challenges were perhaps the first Gulf War when Airlines were unable to fly directly to the Maldives from Europe when we had to really rethink how we maybe able to manage.

Global warming the warming of our seas and the coral dying, and the beautiful image of Maldives as a dive destination, that compelled us to really look at family holidays and various other types of vacations other than just simply dive and seabased vacations.

48

Floating Asia | Winter 2022

I guess every time, the world went into a recession would be a major significant moment, some of the political ups and downs of the Maldives on our continuing path to democracy and of course ending with this global pandemic.

2. What lessons have your own travels taught you?

My own travels have set very high standards for our team, to look after our customers that come into our care in the Maldives. I hope that the service we are providing to our guests is second to none. I certainly have not enjoyed that level of service in any of my travels to any other destinations, including the level of support we have from locals and the friendly way in which people treat each other is second to no one. So, I think my travels have taught me that the Maldives product is a very good one and the standards we have set are very high. Most of our team know what we are doing and how we are competing, and by and large, I am satisfied.

In Coversation with Salah Shihab, Managing Director and Co-founder, Voyages Maldives

3. What are some of your own life rules and personal motto?

My life rules are some of which I have not always followed, but they are rules. Do not put on your plate more than you can eat, so we may be small in size but we try to do a decent job.

We are definitely not the biggest travel agency in the country, we may not be the largest aircraft handling service provider at the Airport. It is always trying to give the best value to our customers for what they are ready to pay.

We have sometimes expanded beyond our capacity and whenever we do that we try and sit back and consolidate what we have. Simply put, trying to do what we do as well as we can, and satisfy our customers as best we could.

I may not have a specific personal motto, but to treat everyone with respect and by intent, I try to never discriminate.

4. What will be the future of travel and what is next for Voyages?

It is a bad time to really say anything conclusive or predict anything about the future, anything and everything is possible, but I firmly believe that travel as we know it is going to be back with us at least in the foreseeable future, and I do not think that it is going to change that much, and that is what I really believe and hope.

I think Voyages is really looking for good partnerships, meaning those who value us as much as we value them.

Really doing a fantastic job in marketing the lovely resorts that we have in this country and the partially traditional safari boats.

5. What are some causes you care about?

The well-being of every child is something that I am really very concerned about, discrimination of any type is something that really disgusts me and strongly care about. I believe it is our duty to try and get the best opportunities for everyone who wants to excel. I am very keen to support all NGOs and any other parties who are working to support the well-being of children.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

Ms. Shaha Hashim

Programme Manager Blue Marine Foundation and Maldives Resilient Reefs

52

Floating Asia | Winter 2022

Exclusive Interview : Shaha Hashim

Can you tell us about your journey to becoming a marine conservationist and programme manager at Blue Marine Foundation?

Growing up in Male’, I did not get many opportunities to explore the ocean. However, when I was in fifth grade, my primary school carried out a programme to teach every child to swim. Ever since my first swim, I have felt a special connection with the ocean. It was a place where I felt free and liberated. This affinity opened new doors for me.

Soon I joined the school swimming team, and I had the opportunity to go snorkelling in Kuda Bandos on one of the school programmes. Little did I know back then that I was witnessing what our reefs looked like just before they suffered one of the worst coral bleaching events that killed more than 95% of our corals. I remember it being truly magical. The reef that looked so plain and scary from the surface was full of action, corals and fish of every shape and colour. There was so much life there I did not know where to look at or which was which. I was hooked, but I did not get to pursue this thrill until later in life. I started SCUBA diving recreationally as soon as I started working.

Soon I was SCUBA diving almost every weekend and most of my holidays were spent volunteering with marine science and conservation projects. It was through these experiences I started realizing the threats to our coral reefs, biodiversity and for us as Maldivians to have a safe future on our small islands. There was no holding me back from the ocean. I enrolled on short-term programmes where I gained technical knowledge and the more experience I gained, the more I wanted to be in a job where I could pursue my passion and love for the ocean.

In 2016, I got the opportunity to join the grouper fishery and conservation project implemented by Blue Marine Foundation and the Maldives Ministry of Fisheries and Agriculture, based on Laamu Atoll. It was a deep dive into marine conservation where I got to directly engage with fisherfolk on how the fishery has declined over time, see first-hand how this had affected grouper spawning aggregations and got to do some cool science on grouper maturity sizes in the Maldives. After the project concluded, I kept on working with Blue Marine Foundation and started developing projects to help gather more evidence and support for improved marine protection. The more knowledge and experience I gained, the more pressing and urgent it became for me to do everything I can to sustain our marine habitats and species and our way of life. In 2020, Blue Marine helped set up the local NGO, Maldives Resilient Reefs, which I am now heading. Today, we are a team of five Maldivians working on various projects related to marine science and conservation.

How did your experience in STEM fields contribute to your work in marine conservation?

Science provides the knowledge and tools for conservation decision making. For example, the evidence we gathered on Laamu Atoll on the baseline status of coral reefs, seagrasses, mangroves, and grouper spawning aggregations was used to justify the protection of some of the critical biodiversity hotspots on the atoll. The evidence we gathered on maturity sizes for groupers in the Maldives helped increase the minimal landing size limit for some of the highly valued grouper species.

Advocacy and lobbying are also important if you are working in the STEM fields because the science needs to be understood by policy makers and the public. We use a variety of different science communication techniques.

For example, our #FishForTomorrow campaign reached a large percentage of the Maldivian public through social media with interesting messages about vulnerable species on our reefs in a fun and engaging way. Just two months after the campaign, all parrotfish were declared protected in the Maldives and the campaign helped the public the understand the vital role of parrotfish for our reefs and islands in a changing climate.

What are some of the biggest challenges you face as a programme manager for Blue Marine Foundation, and how do you address them?

Conservation is never an easy job anywhere because you are trying to change the way something works to achieve the conservation goals. Undertaking research projects is the easy bit and what we usually have control over.

The most challenging part is bringing about effective management which require a lot of time, effort and relationship building. I have faced many challenges along the way, but that is to be expected when you are trying to change the status quo. The important thing is to be guided by your goals, values, and scientific evidence. I step out of my comfort zone every day, but I have no choice to not do this if I want to help bring about effective change.

Exclusive Interview : Shaha Hashim

How do you involve and engage local communities in your conservation efforts, and why is this important?

How do you measure the success of your conservation efforts, and what metrics do you use to evaluate impact?

Maldivians have been living on these islands for hundreds of years, if not thousands. The reason we have what we have today is because our forefathers passed them on to us. I believe that the local communities must be front and centre of the conservation decision making process because without their support, we would not have effective conservation. We can protect areas and introduce new fisheries management measures, but these would only be on paper if local communities are not involved throughout the decision-making process. We must change this.

We have an organizational strategy with clearly defined goals, impacts, and outcomes and all our projects align with these. For each project there is a monitoring and evaluation framework to measure the success of the interventions. Conservation impacts are often only achieved over a long term so it is important to have a clear vision of what you want to achieve and pathways of achieving them.

Today’s generation have lost the connection to the ocean that our forefathers had because they do not get to spend as much time in the ocean. So, the first step is to get them to experience the ocean. Through our ‘Laamaseelu Farudhun’ citizen science programme, we teach the basic ecology of our marine habitats to young people in the communities. We train young Maldivians as citizen scientists on our projects so that they could get first hand exposure to the status of our marine habitats. We present our scientific findings to the communities and try to get them more involved in the decision-making processes.

Can you tell us about a particularly impactful initiative you have led in your role at Blue Marine Foundation?

We have had quite a few conservation successes to date including supporting the protection of new Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) on Laamu Atoll through our research, outreach, and education work. Our campaigns have been very successful. For example, the #ProtectMaldivesSeagrass campaign helped garner the support of 25% of the Maldives tourist resorts in support of seagrass conservation. Our #SaveOurSharks campaigned helped form an alliance of over 250 local and international stakeholders in support of maintaining the Maldives shark fishing ban. We have made very good progress on improving the understanding of reef fisheries in the Maldives, particularly on Laamu Atoll. At Six Senses Laamu, we have established a sustainable resort reef fishery model, where fishers from neighbouring communities sign up to a Code of Conduct and take part in the fishery management by reporting their catches and participating in management meetings. In return, they are guaranteed the best market price for their catch in the atoll, access to safety at sea equipment and trainings. We are now in the process of rolling out this model to other tourist resorts in the Maldives. Very little is known about the resort reef fisheries in the Maldives which hinders effective fisheries management. The health of our coral reefs is very much dependent on healthy reef fish stocks, so this project is extremely important to promote resilient reefs.

How do you stay up to date on the latest research and trends in marine conservation, and incorporate them into your work?

Blue Marine Foundation has a very supportive team in the UK and in other countries they have projects and a strong network of partners. We are very lucky to have access to their expertise. When you are working in conservation, you also get the opportunity to network and work with other organizations and universities. These connections help us stay connected with latest research and trends in marine conservation and help bring new ideas.

This year’s International Women’s Day theme is #EmbraceEquity. What does this slogan mean to you? What advice do you have for individuals who are passionate about marine conservation and want to make a difference in their communities?

Women makes half the population, yet women are very much underrepresented in management and decisionmaking roles. It is crucial for women to be able to have an equal say about things that can affects our lives. The hurdles that women must go through to find a seat at the table is far greater and complex than for men. That is why special considerations need to be given to actively seek women’s participation and say in the decision-making processes.

My advice to those who are passionate about marine conservation is to knock on as many doors as possible and find opportunities to gain experience in the field. There are many conservation organizations looking for Maldivians at entry level positions now. Do not worry if you do not have the experience or the skills yet as these are things that you can build as you grow if you have the passion and the drive. The most important advice that I have been given is to have a ‘thick skin’ because you will face many challenges and criticism along the way, especially when you are trying to change things. Believe in yourself and stand true to your values.

Exclusive Interview : Shaha Hashim

Looking to the future, what are your goals and vision for the future of marine conservation in the Maldives and beyond?

I want to see a Maldives where there is a strong collaboration between the national and local governments and civil society in conservation projects. Being such a small country, we need all hands on deck if we are to be able to tackle the problems in our way. The climate crisis is not something that we have much control over, but maintaining and restoring our natural assets that can protect us from its impacts is.

What legacy do you hope to leave through your work in marine conservation, and what impact do you hope to make on future generations?

I hope to be able to help develop new and more effective models for marine conservation in the Maldives that could be easily replicable. Through our work, I hope that we can contribute to the career development of more Maldivians in this field. My wish is for our future generations to be able to witness and experience the natural beauty of the Maldives so that we could sustain our way of life.

Feature: Nekton First Time in the Maldives

NEKTON DISCOVERY HAS THE HALLMARK OF A NEW ECOSYSTEM Scientists on the Nekton Maldives Mission believe they have likely discovered a previously undescribed ecosystem - ‘The Trapping Zone’ - that is creating an oasis of life 500 metres down in the depths of the Indian Ocean.

The discovery has been hailed as hugely significant by the Maldives Government.

Video evidence from Nekton science cameras aboard the Omega Seamaster II submersible, combined with biological samples collected and extensive sonar mapping, point to megafauna predators such as sharks and other large fish feeding on swarms of micro-nekton - small organisms that can swim independently of the current - which are trapped against the subsea landscape at the 500m mark.

64

Floating Asia | Winter 2022

These organisms typically migrate from the deep sea to the surface at night and dive back into the deep at dawn, otherwise known as The Vertical Migration - the largest nightly migration on Earth.

The trapped animals are being targeted at the 500 metre mark by large pelagic predators - including schools of tuna and sharks - along with well-known large deep-water fish including the spiky oreo named after the biscuit - and alfonsino.

Feature: Nekton First Time in the Maldives

PROF. ALEX ROGERS, NEKTON SCIENTIST “We have found ‘The Trapping Zone’ at about 500 metres depth. This is a zone where fish migrating from the surface at dawn are trapped against the seafloor and they create a food source for predators that are resident at that depth and they come and feed on those fish that are trapped against the seabed.”

Tiger sharks, six gill sharks, sand tiger sharks, dog fish, gulper sharks, scalloped hammer head sharks, silky sharks and the very rare bramble shark have all been documented at 500 metres.

PROF. LUCY WOODALL, NEKTON PRINCIPAL SCIENTIST “We are particularly intrigued at this depth - why is this occurring? Is this something that is specific at 500metres, does this life go even deeper, what is this transition, what is there and why, and that is our critical question we need to ask next. Why are we seeing the patterns that we have observed on this expedition? And that will enable us to understand that deep ocean in so much better terms.”

The Maldives Fisheries Minister - who visited the Nekton Mission on its final full day at sea-was briefed on the new trapping zone. Dr Hussain Hassan also praised the mission for mapping a deep ocean seamount which is a rich fishing ground.

DR. HUSSAIN HASSAN, MALDIVES FISHERIES MINISTER

MOHAMED SHIMAL, MALDIVES MARINE RESEARCH INSTITUTE

“The mapping of the seamount was a really important piece of work and also the scientists’ hypothesis that the Maldives itself is acting as a trapping zone. I think this is a very important discovery.”

“I will say it is a huge success. We have gathered a lot of information that we otherwise would not able to achieve in a short period of time and to this point I would say we have done a good job, a successful job at documenting the deep sea environments and from deep - about 500 metres.”

The volcanic subsea strata and fossilised carbonate reefs, which form the base of Maldivian atolls, combine steep vertical cliffs and shelving terraces that have been extensively investigated and sampled

by Maldivian scientists and their international colleagues aboard the 34-day Nekton mission.

The expedition, which was a joint partnership with the Maldives Marine Research Institute, has been deemed a success on a range of scientific fronts.

The Nekton Mission also included scientists on a knowledge exchange expedition from across South Asian countries.

SHAFIYA NAEEM, MALDIVES MARINE RESEARCH INSTITUTE “We are starting to form a lot more regional collaborations as well as outside of this region so that was the greatest thing about the knowledge exchange.”

In all, the science team spanned 10 nationalities and three continents.

HANA AMIR, MALDIVES MARINE RESEARCH INSTITUTE “During this expedition, we have answered a lot of questions we had but we have also been able to lay out the foundation to ask a lot more questions we hav been wanting to ask but have not had any chance to investigate”.

The mission was visited at sea by the Maldives Environment Minister, who was briefed by the team on the ocean of knowledge collected during more than a month of deployments.

SHAUNA AMINATH, MALDIVES ENVIRONMENT MINISTER “Knowledge obviously will help us to protect it (the ocean) because then we know which areas we need to protect, which areas we need to manage properly and also how we manage the development of tourism as well as the fisheries sector”.

Tourism and fishing lie at the heart of the Maldivian economy. The country is also on the frontline of the climate crisis. Data gathered on the Nekton mission about the state of its coral reefs - which offer a natural sea defence to ever-increasing storm surges, caused by global warming - will be eagerly sought by policymakers who are due to attend the COP 27 climate summit this autumn to push for greater efforts by the international community to meet global carbon emission targets.

Groupers Observed

Hours of Surveys

8

Days of Dive Survey

Groupers are a diverse group of coral reef fish and are valued by divers and snorkelers due to their large size and impressive colours. However, the capture of groupers for the live reef fish trade to South Asia is threatening their populations.

Blue Marine Foundation (Blue Marine) and Maldives Resilient Reefs (MRR) team conducted the first of three formal grouper surveys of the year. Surveys are planned to be conducted around the new moon across the months of October, November, and December.

The team surveyed for eight consecutive days on a reef in Laamu where groupers are known to spawn. Like other reef fish, groupers are known to aggregate in large numbers to ‘broadcast’ spawn. This type of spawning aggregation occurs when many individuals migrate to the same place to reproduce all at the same time in a spectacle which can be regarded as one of nature’s true wonders. In the days and hours leading up to the big event, groupers participate in courtship ‘dances’ and jostle for the best reef position before hastily releasing their eggs and sperm into the water.

Floating Asia | Winter 2022

Grouper spawning is a phenomenon observed across the globe and acts as an important event to provide food for a variety of large predators such as sharks. However, such aggregations have also been heavily exploited by fishers in the Maldives for decades, resulting in grouper numbers plummeting across the country. Groupers are protogynous hermaphrodites which means that they change sex from female to male as they grow up. Overexploitation of grouper aggregations has historically targeted large male individuals, as these species provide fishers with the most profit when sold to overseas markets. Such hermaphroditic life histories make groupers vulnerable to skewed sex ratios, meaning the population will be left with more smaller females and fewer males. Skewed sex ratios within grouper populations can inhibit the ability of groupers to recover from overexploitation, with many of the Maldives’ commercially important grouper species now found are on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

Feature: Let the Grouper Spawning Surveys Begin!

On the research dives the team focused on four species of grouper: 1) brown-marbled grouper; 2) camouflage grouper; 3) squaretailed coral grouper; and 4) black-saddled coral grouper.

The team recorded the presence of each species and estimated the size of each individual observed. The data collected through these surveys will be compared to data collected in 2016 at the same location and enable researchers to assess any changes in grouper spawning numbers. These data will be crucial when informing the effective management of Laamu’s grouper spawning sites and the preservation of these important species.

Blue Marine’s mission is to see at least 30% of the world’s ocean under effective protection by 2030 and the other 70% managed in a responsible way.

BLUE MARINE FOUNDATION Blue Marine is filling a niche in the NGO world, enabling marine conservation to happen fast and effectively.

The future of the Maldives and its people are entirely reliant on the protection of their marine and coastal environment.

Yet, overfishing, excessive tourism, pollution and coastal development are degrading the country’s reefs, seagrass and mangroves and these habitats are losing their capacity to support the people who depend on them. Blue Marine’s aim is to restore coral reefs as climate resilient ecosystems for the benefit of nature and people that depend on them. We aim to do this by expanding marine protection, improving fisheries management, building capacity for Maldivian marine conservationists and promoting sustainable tourism. In 2019, Blue Marine launched the #ProtectMaldivesSeagrass social media campaign, together with our partner resort Six Senses Laamu, to call on resorts to stop removing the seagrasses around their resort island to make clear lagoons for their guests. Within the space of three months, Blue Marine managed to convince more than a quarter of all resorts in the country to commit to protecting more than 830,000m2 of seagrass. Blue carbon habitats such as seagrass, account for ten per cent of the ocean’s capacity to store carbon, making it an important natural solution for mitigating climate change.

Tourism remains the backbone of the country’s economy, unmanaged and unregulated operations can devastate marine life. Ensuring resorts put a sustainable business at the core of their operations is a priority for Blue Marine’s work in the Maldives.
