Speaking of good newspapers on the island, First off this tragic occurrence makes me very angry:

http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20140801/local/updated-syrian-worker-dies-after-fall.530160

This was was a needless death caused by greed and stupidity on the part of the employer, hell Malta, are we still in the 12th century when a plank and a rope is still used as an elevating platform?

No Zoom Lift and workers using a mandatory secured safety harness above five feet of work height?

Where is the employer’s safety training and safety officer making suprise job-site visits?

And to put icing on the cake, the Times of Malta closed the comments section as soon as I sent in a comment stating the above.

Their censorship of comments is already out of this world and lately, on chosen articles the Disqus controlled comment monitoring goes out of order when it is convenient for The Times of Malta to mass censor comments on a particular news article, but the next article comments work just fine.

Rest in peace young man, greed, laziness and stupidity on part of the employer cost you your young life unfortunately.

In reply to M. Yes, and if Galea was not abducted, what "work behind the scenes" was Muscat talking about at the airport? And why did the government keep saying that Galea's life would be in jeopardy if they gave out any information?

Sh*t is hitting the fan faster than the spin doctors can dish out their lies, omissions and inaccuracies. If this were a TV series it would be bigger than Dallas or Dynasty in their heyday. Pity we cannot watch from the distance and safety of our couch with the option of changing channels or switching off when it all gets too much!

Since nothing ever happened to Mr. Galea, can the government explain why ministers and the prime minister were not on the tarmac for every single Maltese who came back from Libya?

I hope The Malta Independent asked him what he thinks of the way Marisa Farrugia was treated by the Prime Minister.
