The Maldivian construction sector has a new powerful voice with the debut of Mason Magazine, the first publication exclusively dedicated to exploring infrastructure, real estate, and development in the island nation. Launched at JEN Malé by Shangri-La, the inaugural issue brings together industry leaders, experts, and key stakeholders to celebrate and critically examine the country’s evolving built environment.
The magazine’s launch was a landmark event, featuring prominent industry figures and honored by Uz. Ahmed Nazim, State Minister at the Ministry of Construction, Housing and Infrastructure. At its core, Mason Magazine aims to create unprecedented transparency and connectivity within the Maldivian construction ecosystem.
Leading the initiative, The Travel Guys have strategically partnered with top industry players to ensure comprehensive coverage. Dhivehi Insurance Company secured the prestigious Title Partner position, demonstrating their commitment to supporting innovative industry platforms. Gold Partners including AMIN Construction, Timber House, and Maldives Assure Supply further underscore the publication’s credibility and collaborative spirit.
Ahmed Ameel, Managing Director of Dhivehi Insurance, emphasized the magazine’s significance: “Our mission is to provide critical support throughout construction projects. Mason Magazine represents an essential tool for understanding and navigating the complex challenges of our industry.”
Fraath Mohamed, Managing Director at The Travel Guys, articulated the publication’s vision with passion: “Mason Magazine is more than a magazine—it’s a collaborative platform celebrating the people, ideas, and ambition driving Maldives’ construction landscape. We’re committed to fostering innovation and knowledge sharing.”
To engage the community, The Travel Guys launched a social media photo competition using the hashtag #masongotme, encouraging participants to capture the dynamic urban landscapes of the Maldives and showcase the magazine’s inspirational spirit.
Mason Works, the parent organization, has broader aspirations beyond the magazine. With platforms including Masonworks.build, Mason Magazine, and the upcoming Mason Summit planned for 2026, their goal is to create comprehensive resources that unite construction industry stakeholders.
Readers can access the inaugural issue through two convenient platforms: the official Mason Works website and Issuu’s digital publishing platform.
