“Gozo is next”: Gozitan-American filmmaker protests Gozo construction works

Feb 17 2021 Share

Youth activists have spoken out against the recent proposal for a block of 71 apartments and 74 garages in a dead-end street in Nadur, stating that further development will destroy Gozo’s natural beauty.

In a series of articles, journals and media, the young activists have called for the objection of the Nadur Development, with Gozitan-American filmmaker Chelsea Muscat making a touching short film highlighting the island’s exceptional wonder and the danger it is in.

As the church bells ring and birds chirp, the droning noise of construction work increases in Gozo and these activists want to do something about it and urge anyone interested to join the cause.

Independent councillor protests unadvised garden destruction in Zebbug

Feb 17 2021 Share

Independent Żebbug Councillor Steve Zammit Lupi has placed himself in between Infrastructure Malta and a village garden to protest allegedly unadvised destruction of the fruit garden.

Zammit Lupi has stated that no form of application of permits had been submitted and sat on a brick wall in defiance of Infrastructure Malta’s works.

Environmental NGO Moviment Graffitti has commended Zammit Lupi’s efforts to save the garden and called upon the public to aid the independent councillor in his protest while an Infrastructure Malta lawyer stated that no permit was needed.
