“Malta lookin gud swt”
I have received this email from a reader who lives in Malta but is a citizen of another European Union member state.
Dear Daphne,
I really would like to thank you for having written the article “Ignorance and racism span the social spectrum”; it was great.
I moved to Malta without having any idea about how racist most of them are and unfortunately I found it out soon enough. I read the comments about Nick (a friend of mine), the English guy who got beaten in Paceville few weeks ago, and I felt absolutely disgusted.
I have nothing against Malta or Maltese people, but the way they treat foreigners, and the level of ignorance of those that are hiding behind a keyboard and leave comments, is unreal.
Thank you for the article, and thank you for pointing out that racism is a real issue in this country. Happy to see that there are people like you.
Best regards,
