The prime minister takes care of the family business and the real source of his wealth

fireworks

The prime minister is the only, doted-upon child of a man who imports and supplies chemicals for making fireworks and other pyrotechnical and explosive materials to most of Malta’s fireworks manufacturers.

Every time you hear a petard explode or see a fireworks display in the sky this summer, tell yourself: “The prime minister and his parents have made a packet on that.”

Of course, we can tell ourselves that Pa Muscat gives his boy no money and never has, even though his boy has had a house with a swimming-pool, built in his parents garden, since he was 22 – the one he lives in still with his wife and children.

We can also tell ourselves that Pa Muscat is going to disinherit his only child perhaps, so it doesn’t matter how many fireworks chemicals he sells in an unregulated situation or abusive situation while his son is prime minister.

Then we can go down to the beach and drink some more Koolaid.

    Of course he gets no money from daddy. That’s why the most expensive item he ever bought was a handbag for his wife, notwithstanding the house with swimming pool and all the fixtures, furniture and furnishings inside it – to say nothing of the his ‘n’ hers cars.

    The Chinese need democracy, not Muscat’s passports and scheming.

    So China has trillions in reserves.

    • ciccio says:

      Worse still, resource-hungry China is using those trillions in reserves to “invest” in resources infrastructure in the third world to deprive the third world from its resources (oil, gas, minerals) and from fair compensation for those resources. This way, not only rural Chinese, but also millions of people in Africa will continue to live in poverty.

    No hassle, Chinese procurement audit on the way.

    • Jozef says:

      ‘…The flush toilet is a German brand and procured at 95,047 yuan (US$14,851). A toilet supplier explained that flush toilet on board a train is different from regular ones in that it incorporates vacuum and disposal system. But even if this is true, the 95,000 yuan price is still unbelievable. One detail merits attention: Wang Xing, wife of Zhang Shuguang who worked at the deputy chief engineer of the Railways Ministry, is the most avid broker of the bathroom items. She even presided over the establishment of joint-ventures between several international manufactures of bathroom items with domestic companies…’

    The Health Ministry is avoiding answering questions on concerns raised last week by chemical expert Alfred Vella about food contamination resulting from fireworks.
    For a week, Times of Malta has been chasing the Health Ministry to address concerns raised by Prof. Vella.

    ‘World record of contamination’
    “We probably have a world record of perchlorate contamination in this country, judging from what is published in scientific literature. Perchlorate is present in dust fall as it deposits during June and remains in dust fall that comes down during all subsequent months in decreasing amounts at least until February. It picks up again as the summer months approach and the cycle is repeated, year on year,” Prof. Vella said.

    He wouldn’t have a problem with the traffic. He’s whizzing around in his personal car, paid by us and escorted by the traffic police sirens!

    Next time anyone of us is stuck in traffic just think about our fireworks prime minister.
