Repubblika head Robert Aquilina pens letter seeking police protection
Apr 26 2023 Share

Rule of law group Repubblika’s head Robert Aquilina has written a letter to both Prime Minister Robert Aquilina and Police Commissioner Angelo Gafa to request protection for both himself and his family. 

Having recently authored the book ‘Pilatus: A Laundromat Bank in Europe’, Aquilina issued the letter so that he assures his right to freedom of expression despite growing security concerns. 

Lawyer Therese Comodini Cachia said that a hostile environment against Aquilina is being created, with harassment and dehumanisation taking place on media platforms. 

The letter also reminded the authorities of the circumstances which led to the assassination of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia. 

It urged the authorities not to act only when there is a knife already metaphorically at his throat. 

In a statement by Repubblika, the group led by Aquilina said that activism is a duty for every citizen with a conscience and an essential part of democracy.

Eight Kirkop families benefit from €1.3 million investment in social accommodation

Minister for Social Accommodation Roderick Galdes has inaugurated a new social accommodation project, with a €1.3 million investment in Kirkop.

This project will welcome eight families, who underwent an application and verification project, according to the government’s allocation strategy launched in 2021.

Minister Galdes said that the project is part of a social revolution within the accommodation sector, which started in the past years to assure better quality of life. He emphasised that a decent and adequate roof over families’ heads is a right, that the government, together with the Housing Authority, will continue to work towards not only reaching but strengthening.

“This building will be changed into a decent home for eight families, who will wholly integrate into the heart of the community. The aim is to not only build projects for social accommodation, but to provide them to those who truly need them, so they are used to boost the quality of life. This is what we mean when we, as a government, speak about social justice”, Galdes concluded.

Kirkop Mayor Terence Agius was also present for the inauguration of the investment.

Apr 26 2023 Share

Summer in Malta is a time of heat, sunshine, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. But as any Maltese resident knows, summer in this Mediterranean country can also be a challenge, especially if you’re not prepared with the right essentials. Here are six must-have items for anyone living in Malta during the summer months.

Baggy White Tee

A baggy white tee is the perfect choice for those hot summer days when you want to stay cool and comfortable. This simple, versatile item can be dressed up or down, and is perfect for pairing with shorts, skirts or jeans. It’s also great for protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful rays, while still allowing your skin to breathe.

Pair of Adidas Gazelles

When it comes to summer footwear, you can’t go wrong with a pair of Adidas Gazelles. These classic sneakers are both stylish and comfortable, making them the perfect choice for walking around Malta’s streets or beaches. Plus, they come in a variety of colours, so you can choose the perfect pair to match your summer wardrobe.

Sunglasses

Sunglasses are a must-have for anyone living in Malta during the summer months. Not only do they protect your eyes from the bright sun, but they also add a stylish touch to any outfit. Look for a pair that offers 100% UV protection and fits comfortably on your face.

Deodorant

When temperatures soar, sweat is inevitable. To avoid feeling self-conscious about body odour, make sure to pack a reliable deodorant. Look for one that’s designed to last all day, and opt for a scent that’s light and fresh.

Air Conditioning

If you’re living in Malta during the summer months, air conditioning is an absolute must. Whether you’re at home or in the office, having a reliable AC system can make all the difference in staying cool and comfortable during the hottest days of the year.

Tote Bag

Finally, a tote bag is the perfect accessory for anyone living in Malta during the summer months. Whether you’re heading to the beach or running errands around town, a tote bag can hold all of your essentials while still looking stylish. Look for one that’s made from lightweight, breathable materials like cotton or canvas.

In conclusion, these six essentials are must-haves for anyone living in Malta during the summer months. By staying prepared with a baggy white tee, a pair of Adidas Gazelles, sunglasses, deodorant, air conditioning and a tote bag, you’ll be ready to take on whatever the season throws your way.
