Muscat lays wreath at 9/11 site

Prime Minister Joseph Muscat paid tribute to the victims of September 11 on the 13th anniversary of the terrorist attack on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre. Muscat placed a wreath at Ground Zero, the site of the tragedy in New York City.

Muscat was in New York to showcase Malta’s  €1.15 million passport sale.

“To be clear, Malta wants your talent, not your money. Your networks, not your accounts,” Muscat told the conference.

“We believe that the concept of citizenship is fast evolving and we want to be at the forefront of this innovation,” Muscat said.
“We want to enhance our competitiveness by increasing our talent pool and our global network,” he said of the Individual Investor Programme, which is believed to have already attracted over 130 applicants.
