I would suggest that you read my last post again! I did not suggest that this thread be closed; what I said was "I agree that it was becoming boring but if left to it's own devices it would close itself"

If I stand accused of not giving in to Gamage, it is because I believe that He is up to something that is not apparant! He wants this forum and its members to back him up - why? Why do you need to get a bunch of people from all over the world rather than those who are local and thus know the problems - maybe because what you are proposing is not quite kosher?

Gamage - you never give up anything without a fight? Then why did you leave - is that not giving up (a stategic withdrawal is still giving up)

Wally, to be fair, he didn't say he never gave up. He said he never did so "without fight". This is obviously the fighting part.

I, for one, won't be sucked into standing up for something which isn't transparent. I will not put my name down to defend anyone who I believe to have a secondary agenda. Even if the main one might turn out to be a noble one.

Maybe it is a scam then!!! maybe these two ,--Gamage and Equadhoo investmets ( funny name for a boat yard) want us all to sign our names to these accusations involving non payments , stealing of boat build contracts, then lodge these with government agencies and the appropriate employment authorities in the Maldives etc,--then suit us all for slander.

Ha Ha,--that would be a good scam. Its all I can think of at the moment. Im just thinking aloud.

It does not matter that the company no longer exists. If it has debts to pay then the liquidation of said company may benefit the debtors.

We are not judging the power of this forum in any way. The only relation we have with this forum is Gamage. This is where we found him. And also why we resonded so quickly was someone who is wrting here sent us un e-mail syaing someone is trying to do serious damage to us on this forum.

If the whole issue exists (there is a chance that Artemis could be right - it is one very large scam - now who would profit I'm not sure, but it's a good scam if it is!) I see it as this -

The conclusions - we have a 'young' company with little managerial experiance nd too much trust - that will come with time - if they don't go bankrupt first!!\

amajdys,
As we are not an International Court at all, why don't we go the positive side of things and you show us some images for the ongoing progress of works? I'd be interested in having a closer look to that fishing boat of yours.
I also would appreciate a clarification on where the boatyard is.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers.

The solution is, as it always was between Gamage and Equadhoo -unfortunately Gamage has taken it to a stage where there is no going back, he has by the look of it gone out on a limb and totally made a mess of it!

As per my letter of resignation I resigned from the company on 7th October and not paid for three months so Why should I spend another 10 days without salary??
When I have to collect payment over 6000 USD why should I go to Labour ministry and spend another 3-4 day to buy my ticket costing only 80 $ ????

This company is making 10 boats for two years, boat you have seen not built in Meedhoo it is the only one they launch so far at Dhevoodo. Office you have seen in Male’ and other pic at Meedhoo. That is why I am telling they are good story tellers.

Do you think any customer will reward millions of worth orders to a company who is straggling for two years to delver at least one Boat????
Do you think I will come to open debate with Maldivian company if I have intention to go and work there again????

Labor mediation by the esteemed international law firm of Gilbert and Sullivan.

Perhaps the value of the discussion lies in a warning to both employers and employees crossing national boundaries to get employment agreements in writing and both do extensive research on each other ... beforehand.

I'm still inclined to believe that Equadhoo has slightly more rights here than Gamage - they are more believable!

Shamsheer must be held responsible for his own fall! You had the money, possibly you were doing other things, and you trusted young inexperinced boys to run the show without proper instruction or supervision.

A lot of work there Gamage and as Walrus says whats your point? If your trying to suggest that opinions have changed then --yes of course they will. This mock kind of court case involving the jury of your choice has listened and judged you. The result is not unanimous by any means and is split without and real decision.

You don't like the decision aparantly.

What exactly do you want? the money you say are owed for labour?

Do you want us to have a collection for you.

How much is that exactly. Theres no one here can help you apart from give you sympathy and certain members have given you that. Again what is it that you want from this forum?

Why the hell are you reposting everyone's comments? That is one annoying thing to do. Especially since my internet is playing up, and instead of 10mbps I get 1-7kbps (yes, kilobits).

And as I Frosty is saying, what exactly do you want from people on these boards? Seriously, what do you gather we/they would be able to do?

Get your facts right

Gamage, from your lengthy reply above, you have used this quote attributed to me.

"Tough speak, amajyds

Now will you explain why you are withholding his money and treating him like a dog?
It was promised that his money will be paid in full on the 17th of this month at Srilankan embassy"

You've used a bit of journalistic licence there old mate and added the last sentence to suit your cause. I never used those words at all and you can check - the post is the first one on page two of this thread.

I take strong exception to that and expect an apology.
