Fireworks were lit in celebration of the village feast for all those anticipating this year’s edition of the celebrations, after having been deprived because of rain, lightning and strong winds.

Maltese MEP’s Charger Victory Highlighted By Wall Street Journal

Maltese MEP's Charger Victory Highlighted By Wall Street Journal
Sep 11 2023 Share

The Wall Street Journal published an article highlighting MEP Alex Agius Saliba’s victory in managing to push Apple into incorporating a USB-C charger point in its latest iPhone. 

The article is titled; ‘He Took On The World’s Most Valuable Company – And Won’, and focuses on the work of Agius Saliba. 

This is because Saliba was the European Parliament’s rapporteur on common charger legislation, with the regulations coming into force in the EU next year.

This means that mobile phones will have to adapt to the USB-C charger port and ditch the proprietary Lightning adaptor. 

Despite having reservations about the change, touting a stifling of innovation and causing inconvenience, Apple yielded to Agius Saliba’s proposals to minimise the environmental impact our technology has.

The barn owls (barbaġann) form part of the FKNK’s effort to restore their population on the islands, having documented the entire process on their social media. 

The FKNK managed to bring the bird population back to Maltese woodlands, most notably in Buskett, with 5 of these owls being released into the area in October of 2021.
