   Doesn’t this merit a special minting of the 2 cents coin for the memorable occasion? It should become a collector’s item.

     And on the reverse side of the coin, it should bear the following etching:

     2014. Malta: Energija Pozittiva. Trahhis ta’ zewg centezmi fil-prezz tal-petlor.

   Thank you, Jo.

   Now we afford to buy an extra dozen pastizzi and a soft drink by the end of the year. Isn’t that awesome?

   Had I ever had the greatest respect for the readers of this excellent blog, I would have suggested (in Maltese) what Joseph Muscat could have done with two cents.

     Those on LNG run even faster – but may be somewhat explosive at the first touch of the ignition switch.

   And the two-cents price reduction on petrol takes effect in July, not now.
