What people say

"Hanafy is a passionate and an energetic leader, who has got the driving force. As a young leader, I see him doing an amazing job as the Controller General. I believe public values his services and dedication as he has been calm in facing the challenges and in finding solutions. I have been working with him for a long time, as we both joined the JP council almost together. He has got the ability to assist the Leader in taking JP to great heights, as it requires skill, dedication, and education to bring strategic outcomes."

Assad Riza

Deputy Minister of Tourism Ministry

As the Controller General of Maldives Immigration, he focuses on increasing the transparency of the organization and strengthening immigration enforcement to gain public confidence. He is also keen to work with nationals and internationals alike with a shared sense of responsibility.

Furthermore, because the Maldives is heavily reliant on tourism, he emphasizes the importance of transforming Maldives Immigration to a customer-centered approach even at the border, despite the fact that immigration authorities act strictly in most countries.
