More to the point, why are delegations of Chinese communists interested in visiting old people in care homes in Malta? I bet they thought the Moonies were back.

“Mr Grech said that he was sure that the MP on the other side of the house could distinguish between govertnment work and the work of a political party. “As a result, I will not be answering this question.”
Do they really? Great! Now that’s something to hold them to.
So according to Louis Grech the visit was a party to party affair devoid of any government business. What in the blazes does the Chinese Communist Party want from the Malta Labour Party apart from financial servitude?
The Deputy Prime Minister is a busy man with no time to waste on ambush questions when he himself doesn’t know what he talked about, let alone which hat he was wearing.
The MPs on the other side – yes, it’s that lot we’re worried about.
That sounds very much like a media-handler reply from Government.
Can’t Louis Grech provide his own answer to questions?
Friends of mine tell me that Louis Grech has always been known for deciding not to decide.
Since when has the Labour Party started to make a distinction between “party” and “government” when it was governing?
Never! since Independence day.
My brother beat me to this comment.
This is the modern twist, coming from a modern man, of an old expired anti democratic Labour statement “It is not in the interest of the public.” A breath of fresh air coming from a stale Labour darling can never make a true politician of worth and substance in Chaplain`s “Modern Times.”
The Moonies never went away. They simply moved online.

The care homes must be for sale.
Are the pensioners being used as guinea-pigs for cheap pharmaceuticals made in China? They should test this medicine on the elite Communists.
Wait for it.
“Mr Grech said that he was sure that the MP on the other side of the house could distinguish between govertnment work and the work of a political party. “As a result, I will not be answering this question.”
Somehow PN did show that they made a distinction. It was, it is and it will be PL that still have to give proof that they do. They never ever made an attempt, let alone convince.
They want to kill them and secretly replace them with Chinese impostors.
This way the Chinese can enter the EU in great numbers.
This is cheaper than buying a Jo brand Maltese passport and the imported slave labour thing will not fly now since it has been exposed.
Dawn il-Maosti Ċiniżi naħseb għandhom bżonn xi suttatura bajd.

Il-“kulturi” tagħna qatt ma jistgħu jiltaqgħu. Hemm baħar kbir jaqsam bejnietna. Jien ma naħmilx lil min dejjem ikun jidher b’ħalqu mċarrat u fl-istess ħin lest biex ijassarni.
The Chinese must have reciprocated a visit made by a government representative from an old persons’ home, Louis Grech himself, or at least that was what the Chinese thought.
The truth of the matter is that whenever a delegation from a political party, particularly if the party is in government, pays a formal visit to a foreign state and meets with officials – whether party or government – of that foreign state, what is discussed and/or agreed upon is, of necessity, of direct and immediate interest to the general public.
The public has a right to know, no matter what the Standing Orders of the House say about how and on what topic P.Q.’s may be put.
That is what democracy is all about.
In the UK, the Prime Minister is often asked questions along such lines, which are always answered (whether willingly or not is another matter). If he were to refuse to answer he would be booed out of the Commons by the media and hounded until he did.
The Deputy PM makes such a statement and no one blinks.
What a country.
” However, the senior care market in China is also a promising opportunity. If scalable and profitable business models emerge, the country could quickly become one of the world’s most lucrative markets for senior care companies.”
