Transport Malta in €3 million deal with Air Malta

Days before the 9 March election Transport Malta paid €3 million for land owned by Air Malta in Pembroke.

Transport Malta paid €3 million for a piece of land in Pembroke owned by Air Malta. The deal was quietly finalised days before the general election.

The land is currently used by third persons and the deal does not effect the current usage.

The deal was done secretly and was intended to ease Air malta's debts.

The land is not owned by Air Malta. It was appearing on the Air Malta balance sheet when the company was fully owned by the Maltese government. Selling it to a Maltese agency, which was previously a government department does not change anything as regards Air Malta's debt. How long are we, taxpayers, going to allow this kind of deceving management? Where is the accountability politicians talk so much about? Bring the officials resoponsible for this accounting act to explain the reasoning behind this move. If this is not done then those closing their eyes are parties to this 'theft'.

Tonio Fenech imported a foreigner instead of appointing a cuc malti to run AirMalta,is this the best Mr Davies can do for his €500,000 per year wages to cure the ils of the airline? Secretly selling off the airline's assets? The government should ask for a full account of what Mr Davies has done, apart from employing close friends in prominent places,for the last 3 or 4 years.

IS THE PRESENT GOVERNMENT GOING TO ALLOW THIS MASSIVE CORRUPTION THAT WENT ON UNDER GONZIPN WITHOUT REDRESS. THEY WERE HIDING THEIR GRAVE SINS WITH OUT MONEY. THEY WERE PLAYING WITH PEOPLE'S LIVES AND WELFARE, THEY WERE POCKETING MASSES OF MONEY FROM CORRUPT PRACTICES AND IT SEEMS NOW OBVIOUS THAT VERY LITTLE OF THAT WAS TRICKLING BACK TO THE PARTY THEY SUPPORTED!!! AND WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR TRANSPORT MALTA BEFORE THE ELECTION.? ALWAYS THE SAME AUST, AG OR WAS IT THE MINISTER, BACKED BY HIS CRONIES. HOW CORRUPT COULD THE GONZIPN STOOP TO.?

Hnizrijiet tal-wahx! Kollox minn taht, minn wara dahar in-nies! U iridu jippontaw subghajhom fuq it-trasparenza u meritokrazzija dawn in- nies! Thanks God, we have seen through them and hopefully never again unless they first they clean their stables and then apologize with rivers of tears flowing from their eyes!
