Some people never get tired of rent-seeking

Michael Zammit Tabona’s nephew, Edward who takes care of the family business including Captain Morgan is currently promoting a new company called GEB Landscaping Malta. The company was founded in March this year by directors who are involved in companies owned by the Zammit Tabonas such as Ozo Group of Companies (Frank Muscat, son of Mario Muscat of the Ozo Group).

Landscaping in Malta is basically a business which is paid for by public funds. It is also a highly concentrated market with plenty of contractors competing for the same public contracts. Now, amongst these competitors for public funds, there will also be the Zammit Tabonas with their business empire whose founder, Michael, funds the Labour Party with at least ย€100,000 every single year.

Are you having a hard time making profits during the recession? Don’t worry, uncle Michael got you covered. Form a landscaping company and we’ll try to get some public contracts.

    […] Miriam Dalli is as vacuous and shallow as they come. The previous Super ONE propagandist hasn’t even featured in the latest debate on abortion, yet she is positioned in a fraudulent manner as a feminist or someone who supports women’s rights by the mere fact that she is a woman. The simple reason why she has been chosen to head the energy ministry is to make sure that no controversies from the past are resurfaced which can deal reputational blows to the Labour Party: mainly Electrogas and the deal with Shanghai Electric. In fact, Miriam’s top priority at the energy ministry has been to ensure that everything is kept secret. Meanwhile, Enemalta is bankrupt and Miriam Dalli’s vision is to greenwash her career with fraudulent projects handed over to Labour Party donors. […]
