Maltese Say They Want More Money, Not More Hugs At Work

Jun 6 2025

Getting paid well is still the number one thing Maltese people care about at work.

The results come from the State of the Nation 2025 report, which asked people to rank different parts of their job from most important (1) to least important (5).

Here’s what they said:

👉 Pay (Income) came first again in 2025, just like in 2021, 2022, and 2024.

👉 Job satisfaction was second most important — people want to feel good about what they do.

👉 Job security stayed in third place, showing that people still want to feel safe in their roles.

👉 Flexibility and feeling appreciated were less important, but still mattered to some.

Pay was always in the top spot across the years. Feeling appreciated at work was always the least important, while flexibility and job security stayed in the middle.

So What Does This Mean?

Maltese workers want good money first, then want to enjoy their work, and finally feel secure in their jobs. Fancy extras or sweet words don’t beat a solid pay check.

Employers, take note!

Maltese Losing Interest In Politics: Youth Don’t Care!

Jun 6 2025

Politics? No thanks. That’s what more and more people in Malta are saying, especially the younger crowd.

A shocking new State of the Nation survey has revealed that interest in politics is dropping every single year. In 2021, nearly half of the population (48.3%) said politics was very important to them. But in 2025, that number has crashed to just 30.8%.

And it gets worse. The number of people who say they do not care at all about politics has nearly tripled since 2021. Back then, it was 12.9%. This year? A massive 33.5%!

Young people are the least interested. Only 19.8% of under-25s said politics is very important in their life.

Even loyalty to political parties is changing. In the past, almost two-thirds (64.2%) always voted for the same party. But now, 42.0% say they’re open to voting for a different one in the next election.

Still, most people say they will vote. 74.8% plan to show up on election day. Only 8.2% say they won’t vote, and 17% are still unsure. Older people are the most likely to vote, with 85.5% of those over 66 saying they will.

So what’s going on? Experts say people are feeling tired of politics, especially the young. They want real change, not just more talking.
