Alex Borg Raises Alarm Over “Burden on Maltese Society”

Aug 8 2023

In a recent social media post, PN MP Alex Borg expressed his concerns about what he called “the burden that various sectors of Maltese society are facing.”

He highlighted the strain on the police force, healthcare workers, infrastructure, and the elderly, attributing this burden to the decisions made by the current government.

One central theme of Borg’s message is, in his words, “the idea that the current government, led by Prime Minister Robert Abela and Minister Clyde Caruana, needs to take immediate action to address the problems at hand.”

On Facebook, Borg reminds the government of its five-year mandate and stresses that the solutions are needed now, not later.

Borg’s critique extends to the economic policies that have been pursued by the government. He warns against over-reliance on the “cheap labor” model for economic growth, suggesting that such a strategy may have contributed to the burden on various sectors.

The PN MP indicates that the Opposition is willing to collaborate with the government to find solutions.
