Hayday: Bit of a crisis in the Maldives at the moment is that the price of onions has quadrupled in the last few days due to limited stock from adjacent countries caused by poor weather. Not sure what is going to happen as onions form the basis of most dishes – Lanky is very partial to eating whole onions like an apple and if he does not get his daily quota god knows what may happen.Therefore we may be asking our agents that are coming to visit to bring suit case of onions with them so we can sell them on the black market. Usually oil is the dominant economic force in most countries but onions seem to have a powerful impact in the Maldives.
