Back in August, a study carried by US analytics firm Gallup revealed that the people of Malta are the angriest in the European Union, with a significant fraction of the population also being stressed, worried and in pain.

Echoing Gallup’s revelation that Maltese people are the most worried in Europe and the fourth most worried in the world, users responding to Malta Daily’s poll revealed that school is the one of the key contributors to stress. 40% voted school as the main cause of stress, with personal problems coming in second at 32% and work third at 28%.

Of the many ways that one could deal with stress, 44% chose exercise, 28% percent chose shopping, 17% opt for travelling under stress and 11% of respondents picked reading to cope.

Do you feel stressed?

ADPD’s Cacopardo calls high fuel prices “godsend” solution to reduce traffic

Nov 6 2022 Share

In an interview with The Malta Independent on Sunday, APDD chairperson Carmel Cacopardo argued that the removal of subsidies on fuel would definitely reduce traffic in Malta.

The green party chair stated that removing petrol and diesel subsidies should not only decrease traffic in Malta but push for the improvement of Maltese public transport.

“On Thursday schools reopened and traffic jams were everywhere. This also means that the measures to provide school transport are ineffective. Most probably they have not been taken up sufficiently.”

Addressing the introduction of free public transport in Malta, Cacopardo stated that the implementation was premature and that further study to ensure its efficiency and reliability should have been conducted. He went on to argue that Malta requires campaigning for a change in behaviour with regards to transport.

Do you agree?
