Malta one of the top 12 EU countries for massive cocaine busts

Malta has just earned its place among the top 12 EU countries for the largest amounts of cocaine seizures. This sheds light on the island’s position as a drug trafficking gateway in Europe. 

Malta has one of the main ports of the Mediterranean which anyone can use to enter Europe. 

The European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) and Europol published their fourth comprehensive overview of illicit drug markets in the European Union, but the exact amount of drugs seized by Maltese authorities was not revealed. 

Despite this, according to news reports throughout the years, large numbers of drug busts at Malta’s Freeport have amounted to millions. December 2020, in fact, saw a record breaking bust of 612kg of cocaine imported from Colombia and Ecuador.

Despite not being destined for the island, the shipment was valued at around €70 million. The record was then broken again last month, after 800kg of cocaine were seized, at €108.2 million. 

Authorities have managed to bust many such trafficking attempts, but sources have constantly warned that this is just a fraction of what actually goes through.

Many UK companies trialing 4 day work week next month… Malta still not ready

Starting on the 1st of June, around 60 UK firms made up of around 3,000 employees will be undergoing a four-day work week trial which could potentially change the game for Brits. 

The trial will be running for six months, and it will see employees maintaining the same pay but with an extra weekday off. 

Campaign group 4 Day Week Global is captaining the trial, and it hopes that results from similar trials around the world can be replicated in the UK. These saw productivity increase drastically, as well as worker’s mental health receiving a boost. 

Meanwhile, Malta does not seem to be ready to take on a trial of the work schedule, let alone a full business revamp. Ahead of the 2022 general election, the PN had proposed incentives to participate in a national four day week trial. 

However, given the Labour Party’s reelection, it does not seem that any plans to try out the campaign will be going ahead. Instead, Finance Minister Clyde Caruana’s 2021 explanations ring true.

Caruana had explained that Malta is not yet ready for such a shift in the workplace. The minister had pointed at many of the workers on the island being low-skilled, saying that this needs to improve before a four day week can be even considered. 

“To get the most Facebook likes, I can easily say that we can start discussing this subject – but we aren’t there yet. We cannot offer the illusion of offering something which in truth cannot be done,” he said.

Projecting into the future, Caruana said that Malta could get there, but as it stands, not all of the population seems to be equipped with the right skill level to see it come to fruition.

UK set for hottest day of the year as Malta enters a week of rainy weather

UK set for hottest day of the year as Malta enters a week of rainy weather
May 7 2022 Share

It’s official – the weather simply cannot decide what it wants. Brits are currently readying themselves for the hottest day of the year, out-scorching Spain at well over 20 degrees Celsius. 

The UK is set to experience such weather throughout this entire weekend, as many are already heading to the beaches, sunscreen in hand. The same, unfortunately, cannot be said for Malta.

Despite the Maltese being gifted with some of the hottest and summery weather just a few days ago, the rest of this weekend is set to be nothing but rain and wind. Way to get excited about summer vibes!

Several weather forecast portals are reporting that the sunlight will have a barrier of clouds to penetrate, with force 4 and 5 winds battering the islands. And if that isn’t bad enough, the temperatures are still set to feel like 20 degrees Celsius.

The rainy weather is set to persist throughout the entire week up until Friday, which is when Malta will get, according to Malta International Airport weather forecasts, the first sunny day of the week.
