The ministry said that out of the 21 resorts closed because of the December 26 tsunami, 10 are already operational.
?Six remaining resorts would be opened this year. The other four would most likely be opened in 2006,? an official said.
From the resorts hit by the tsunami, Male atoll Farukolhufushi island (Club Med Faru) has been handed over to the ministry by the management of that resort. Farukolhufushi island was originally supposed to be a part of Hulhumale.
Tourism Ministry said that in addition to the resorts closed because of the tsunami, eight other resorts have been closed for renovation.
From the 87 registered tourist resorts, 67 are operational.
