Naseem, who is currently in Colombo with other opposition leaders including former President Mohammad Nasheed, said the new government would reassess the cost and implications of Chinese projects in the island nation. He said he did not anticipate any attempt by defeated president Abdulla Yameen to subvert the election result.
