President Paul Kagame received Mohamed Ali Janah, Group Chairman of Hotels and Resorts Investment Maldives, in his office.
A statement posted on the Presidential Palace’s Wall X on the evening of Monday, December 15, 2025, states that this evening, President Kagame received at Village Urugwiro, the Group Chairman of Hotels and Resorts Investment Maldives, Mohamed Ali Janah, and the Chairman of the Board of Directors of JIH Global Investments, together with Ghassan Aboud and Ahmad Aboud, Chairman and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Ghassan Aboud Group.
Their discussions focused on investment and development opportunities that can be found in Rwanda, particularly in the high-end hotels and real estate sectors.
Maldives is a country of over a thousand islands, which is internationally renowned for its high-end tourism activities, which include 5-star hotels built on private islands, beautiful beaches and natural beauty.
Located in South Asia, near Sri Lanka and India, it is considered a leading country in high-end tourism, due to its experience in hotel management and tourism investment.
This is a major reason why local individuals or companies such as Hotels and Resorts Investment Maldives, often invest abroad, especially in the field of modern hotels.
It is reported that Maldivian investment companies, which are well-known for developing high-end hotels and real estate, are in discussions with Rwanda on investment opportunities that may be available there and can be implemented in the future if successful. (Fin)
