First of all, how’s business? I guess not many people are booking to immigrate into China, so I’m not surprised you’re so excited by our cunning scheme. Emigration consultant is where the big money is.

Anyway, what you hear is absolutely true.

You give Jabba a cheque with your order, and he will send you all the passports you ordered. You can also group your clients, pretending to be families, to get a huge discount. With your order, it is mandatory to send also a good conduct certificate, either from the local police station, or from a trusted lawyer of your choice. And to answer for your last question. No, there is no limit to how many passports you can buy. The more, the merrier.

We can always commission Willie Mangion to find her an office. His rapid action in procuring property is legendary. I bet he can find her an office before she grows old.

Please instruct anyone enquiring about the citizenship scheme to pay their fee to H.P.

Technically, it’s not fraud.

Maltese people who have been abroad for some time have lost their right to vote in our elections.

These new citizens would probably not even come to Malta. So they will have no right to vote. A Maltese passport is not enough to be able to vote in general elections in Malta. One must have been living here for a certain period of time to be eligible to vote.

If these new citizens would be allowed to vote just the same, they would be privileged citizens having more rights than true Maltese who have Maltese parents, were born here, lived in Malta for the greater part of their lives but since they have been away for maybe 2 years cannot vote.

Alla faccia del comunismo.

In that case we need all the help we can get. Bollocks to those who’ll say revoking those passports isn’t constitutional. When the basics of democracy are at stake, the spirit of the constitution has been distorted anyway.

How pathetic of Muscat if he can’t see himself re-elected on merit alone.

How sad can one be to miss all the opportunities in Europe and choose to be seen as a parasite.

He reminds me of businessmen who’ll always copy and chase others’ success stories.

I think you’re absolutely right. Let’s call her office shall we, that is, when she gets one.

China’s richest 1 percent hold 70% of the country’s private wealth, according to the Wall Street Journal.

(Indirect source: http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2012/08/17/708521/china-1-percent/ )

With a population of 1.35 billion (add 9 zeros, Manuel Mallia) that’s a potential market of 13.5 million people.

This is MASSIVE.

No mention of Malta yet (except that the event will be held at the Corinthia St Petersburg) but the reference to “Citizenship-by-Investment Programs” suggests that Malta will be a hot topic.

A whore of a prime minister, you mean. Selling a passport at any price – especially with no strings attached – is just not on. What is the difference between a prostitute in Testaferrata Street and what some like to refer to as a ‘high class hooker’ (a contradiction in terms, if there ever was one)?
