Opposition leader describes his Shanghai meeting with Mrs Konrad Mizzi as “bizarre”

Times of Malta this morning:

Opposition leader Simon Busuttil has described his meeting with Malta’s trade envoy to China, Sai Mizzi-Liang, as “bizarre”. He met Ms Mizzi-Liang for 30 minutes in Shanghai yesterday and said he was “unimpressed” by her answers about her work as a trade envoy.

“So far, the Opposition has been very critical of Sai Mizzi’s appointment for reasons of nepotism [she is the Energy Minister’s wife] but, after this meeting, the criticism will also focus on the fact that she is not up to it,” Dr Busuttil told the Times of Malta from China. He said the meeting had only been confirmed on Thursday night.
