Good comment that you’ve posted Mr Aquilina. Oh God please help us!

People who rely on subsidies, and people who need to pay their bill in monthly instalments (a common practice where large amounts of money are owed to the government and its corporations) will not be able to appease the new private enterprise furnishing us with electricity.

No private enterprise would allow such a practice to go on.

We all know that Enemalta is currently in the red because of the huge arrears which have accumulated over the years – and because the government can absorb these dues as it is currently a state-owned corporation.

a new private enterprise allow this practice to go on?

Are some businesses going to have to lay off people when they receive a bill they realise they have to pay within a few days? How about households which rely heavily on subsidies and any form of assistance they can get from the state because of circumstances which may prevent them from being able to honour certain bills at the end of certain months?

Labour – the party which used to pride itself on its social conscience and on being ‘it-tarka tal-batut’ has suddenly forgotten these elements of our society.

Was that the Edward Scicluna who – yesterday, I think – declared tongue in cheek that Malta’s current problems are worse than Spain’s? Somee would not hesitate to say “Hudni Mulej”

Bang on! Though I really cannot understand how people actual believe that Muscat’s proposal is feasible.

I still am amazed how many people (even public figures) took this proposal seriously from day one.

It also means that many people are having it so good, that their perceptions of the realities both in Malta and elsewhere are really marred.

And someone just passed by, going “il-poplu mhux injorant”!

I think think this government has actually made a mini miracle, because in reality the bills ought to be slightly higher but a significant juggling has stopped that from occurring. But then again some believe this happens automatically with no one thinking how to come about it.

Oh I forgot to add, in case you forgot that in Sant’s time oil was only $12 a barrel. I hope you know the price of oil today and do you think the price of oil and gas will go down in the near future?

Do you really believe we need another power station? This government is already working on the oil pipeline and connection via cable to the European electricity grid.

C. Fenech – the highest hike in my elctricity bill was in Sant’s time when my bill went up from Lm15 to LM45 – three times as much, in one go. At that time I was still working so during the week I consumed very little electricity and water.

My last two bills were 32 and 57 euros respectively.

If you don’t know many countries produce electricity using water energy while we use electricity to produce water.

30,000 families receive help from the government towards their electricity bills – how many countries do that?

What are you doing to reduce your bills?

And according to that expert Konrad Mizzi, he is going to reduce your bill by around 26cents per day. And you are going to risk your future for 26 cents per day.

Unbelievable!

But then we know that 70% of the populations are morons.
