Taking to social media, marine biologist Alan Deidun shared footage sent to him by Ryan Curmi of the marbled electric ray, known as ‘ħaddiela komuni’ in native Maltese.

The ray, spotted in local waters, is capable of delivering an electric discharge of 70 to 80 volts!

Even newly born rays are capable of delivering this electric discharge for hunting purposes.

Have you ever seen a ray?

A Maltese working in The Netherlands, Mariah Zammit, prepared some classic imqaret for her colleagues.

However it does seem to have worked for the majority, with Mariah preparing a marks sheet for her colleagues. The iconic Maltese snack earned an average 4.7 out of 5 – performing better than the figolli!

‘Many of you asked how I am quieter than usual’, he wrote on social media.

‘I am currently attending a lot of meetings that take their time and I believe that one less word is better than an unnecessary one.’

‘Your support and courage keep me moving forward, and I am currently listening more than speaking.’

He said that the decision he will take will be one for the good of the country and the Nationalist Party, and for no other reason.

‘A number of things need to be placed on the scale, among them the political relevance of the PN and where it wants to go in the future.’

What do you think?
