Can anyone here explain to me why Air Malta had two adverts in newspapers yesterday selling off all its shares in Osprey Insurance? Offers are being accepted through the Department of Privatisation at the Ministry of Finance and the deadline has been extended till 30th May.

Daphne, on 25th April you published the meeting which had taken place on 14th April between Konrad Mizzi and the Chinese Ambassador in Castille. That meeting had been hidden from the public, and reminds me of the secret Memorandum of Understanding that Joseph Muscat had signed in China in 2010.

It was one day later – on 26th April – when Joseph Muscat announced in Gozo that some “big news” would be revealed in the “coming days.” It could be that when Muscat found out that the meeting of 14th April had been publicly revealed, he thought it would be wiser to start leaking some news.

Watching this interview here, I suspect that in his answer to the question about Sai Mizzi Liang, the PM is hinting to some agreement – call it a Memorandum of Understanding – that will be signed with China on some initiative, probably health – maybe even related to Gozo.

Mind you, if this happens, there would be a serious conflict of interest, because Sai Mizzi Liang shouldn’t be negotiating issues on energy or health. It was Konrad Mizzi himself, when the controversy about his wife’s appointment broke out, who had given assurances to journalists that she would not be dealing in matters for which he is a Minister.

Coming from this incompetent PM, “ahbar kbira” should read “haxja ohra kbira “. We will have to wait and see.

In reply to ciccio.

When you receive your first bill with the reduced tariff you are going to know ‘big time’. Joseph Muscat has outsmarted the PN on PR for months on end and there is no sign of him slowing down.

Wall to wall radio advertisements, paper advertisements and billboards have already announced the reduction.

You wait till you receive your first bill in a couple of months – a bill showing before and after and the great almighty reduction that will change your life.
