Gzira Local Elections

Hi everyone, I hope someone from Gzira reads this. I am a foreigner and a resident. I would like to vote responsibly in the upcoming elections.

I would like to vote for someone who isn't corrupt. Hopefully someone who cares about the environment and secondarily someone who's into socialist policies to create safety nets for the less fortunate members of society.

Do any politicians here fit the bill?

Will be visiting Malta in the summer, how much spending money would you recommend to take?

I will be coming to Malta in the summer. I have booked a self catering studio with a couple friends in a luxury hotel. I will be spending 3 full days (4 nights) in Malta.

I am not sure what the cost is like in Malta. How much spending money would you recommend a tourist would usually spend in Malta during this day and age? This would cover about two meals a day, drinks, going out to nice restaurants for dinner, nightlife, tourist activities etc.

Malta gov bond fund and/or other investments

Im interested in starting to invest a bit for my future. Pension plan company have been calling me to set up a pension plan, mostly the advantage seen is to get a tax refund of 750 year max if you invest around 3000 eur yearly the way I understood it.

Mostly people in general kind of advise to stay away from this. What other opportunities are there around? Can someone explain how the malta gov bond fund works and benefits/risks and how to get into it if its interesting?

What is the best top up plan for mobile phones?

I am 26 y.o. and I would like to have a fair amount of data and free calls to EU numbers. I am currently with GO dis, but 5 GB of data and 200 minutes for 8.99 seems ridiculous to me, also given the fact that the many times GO does not work.

What plan do you have and you are happy with?

Malta exclusive nightlife?

Me and some girlfriends are coming end of June for a celebratory trip & are looking for higher end / more exclusive nightlife places. We are late 20’s early 30’s and open to anywhere to have fun and dance but want to buy a table or be in an area where it isn’t overran by teenagers / easy access to drinks etc.

I was looking at Gianpula village and getting a table in the VIP area but in the photos it also looks extremely busy around where the tables are even though there are apparently caps on table numbers. Anyone been in the VIP section?

Hugo’s Rooftop was also mentioned as was Cloud 22 but both seems to have a lot of mixed reviews so it’s hard to tell.

Anyone owns a pastizzeria?

There’s a pastizzeria close to where I live which is up for rent and I my father is considering to take over and spend his last 5 working years in it.

It’s near a bus stop and usually very busy. But given the dirt cheap prices, do they make Money?

"New" Street View Imagery (partially) released

https://preview.redd.it/9kjgaqgn6azc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=2bd80ff5cc9a66eabd93074bbf7d845902c2b9c2

I just realised that some parts of the island received some Street View coverage from July 2022 (idk why it took almost 2 years to be released tho).

Although some areas (I would say, a bit more than half of the country) still has the old 2016 imagery, maybe we'll see the updated version soon? Who knows

Maltese Arabic and History

How aware are Maltese of the Islamic history of the island? I was reading about the moors in southern europe (sicily, iberia, etc.) during the middle ages and it seems like malta was one of the last moorish outposts culturally... they still speak arabic albeit heavily mixed w/ italian and english.

Did the catholic rulers go to work on erasing that history as much as possible?

Moving to malta soon, anything to watch out for?

Hey, im moving to Malta in June because of a job. Im in the games/IT sector (not gambling) and was just wondering if anyone has some tips in general?

Which are the areas where most expats live? What is a good deal for a single furnished apartment? How much are my expenses gonna be for groceries etc on average? What about power cuts? How reliable is public transportation? How quick is shipping things with Amazon to the island? What are good internet service providers for online gaming? Etc.

Would love to get some perspectives! :)

Maltese Passport

Hello,

I was born in Malta to a Scottish mother and a Maltese biological father. My mother left the country and took me back to Scotland when I was only 3 months old, and have never had contact with my biological father since. I have my birth certificate.

Would I be eligible for a Maltese passport through birth with a biological Maltese father? As I do not have any contact with him i’m unsure of the complications and seems hard to find any information. I do know his name though based on my birth certificate.

Many thanks.
