Ding, ding, ding! I think there's your answer, evergn. I've never been to Maldives, so I can't address your question from that standpoint. But vacation time is too precious and too expensive (especially that destination) to spend it worrying abut security. If you're at all apprehensive, don't go. There are hundreds of other destinations to choose from.
