Change the Maldivian Anthem to "Ilaahee mibin"

Change the Maldivian Anthem to "Ilaahee mibin"

The Issue

Our National Anthem or Gaumee Salaam is devoid of meaning and does not try instill any values on the populace. It does not promote love of the nation nor of god. It does not highlight goals and aspirations of a people.
In contrast, the song "Ilaahee mibin" highlights our most precious value which is peace. And also highlights our confidence in Allah and that of his endless bounty upon our nation.
So, I propose we change our Anthem to the song 'Ilaahee mibin' in order to instill values of peacefulness, patriotism and Islam in the people of our nation.
I call upon the leaders to call a referendum and let the people decide this.
