Yes, I thought Malta&#039;s business envoy to China would do anything to be accessible to Maltese entreprenuers who wish to expand and explore the Chinese market.

Alas, looks like bureacracy got the better of her.]]></description>

Hear hear. Metsola is great and is truly on the ball, a spirited fighter who will not give an inch and be bullied by uncouth socialists. 

Casa is a true European MEP who avoids nationalistic jingoism. 

Helga Ellul transcends the need for candidates to be nationalistic hicks from the back of beyond and has proved herself in the business world. Comodini Cachia is needed back in Malta to defend us from these constant attacks on democracy. The others I must confess I know little about.]]></description>

For example:  how does one contact &quot;our&quot; business envoy Sai Mizzi?  What&#039;s her brief, really? What will the results have been for her 1st quarter?  

Can this be put forward as a PQ?]]></description>

You&#039;re absolutely right, what&#039;s sad is the way this state of affairs is slowly being accepted. 

They should be held accountable, roles challenged, work put under scrutiny. Indeed, what are their tasks, what deadlines, what results are we to expect?]]></description>
