Fascinating: Projects Malta Ltd, not the government itself, has issued the call for hospital proposals

Projects Malta Ltd is the government-owned limited liability company with has entered into partnership (on a dominant basis) with the Malta Chamber of Commerce and the Royal Malta Yacht Club. It is headed by Adrian Said.

This is not something with which I am at all comfortable – not because I have doubts about Adrian Said (I don’t know him), but because I am somehow left with the feeling that there is too much networking and contact-scratching going on, that the profit motive for the private sector may well outweigh the public interest in this scenario, and that there are worrying issues of accountability.

It is a like a private-sector land-grab of public assets by Taghna Lkoll cronies and possibly grafters.
