The enormous expense for the Ewro changeover

Last Saturday, with great pomp and ceaseless boasting, our country celebrated the changeover from the Maltese Lira to the European Union Ewro, with a vocal and orchestral concert, at Dar il-Mediterran, and with a lot of speeches, mostly similar, all playing the same notes in favour of the Ewro and the European Union.

All those who followed the ceremony on television could not fail to note a great void – the lack of popular enthusiasm and participation of the people.

It was a characteristic of the entry of the Ewro in our country that left the Maltese people totally uninterested, that they had to forcefully accept the destruction of the Maltese currency, because they were forced and not because they wanted, or because they understand that it is better for them.

There is no doubt that both the European Union and its Maltese propagandists, felt that the changeover to the Ewro continued to hammer out that they were mistaken.

With the Ewro instead of the Maltese Lira, we have not barred the road to leave the EU.

On the contrary, it made it easier for us not to continue to be members in the Union, and just the same if we want, continue to use the Ewro as the official currency of our country.

For the Maltese people it is more important what is going to be done so that the Ewro does not continue to increase the cost of living, as it has done in every country in which it was adopted.

None of the many persons that we had invited to come and praise and congratulate us because we have adopted the Ewro, has shown us how, with the Ewro, we are going to restrain the cost of living.

None of them showed us how, once the expenses increase with the adoption of the Ewro, we are going to be more competitive, and not less.

None of the bigheads that spoke during the celebrations last Saturday, explained to us how we are going to attract more investment, if we are not going to become more competitive with the adoption of the Ewro.

None of them have with their speeches given us proof that we are going to increase employment in our country, once we are not going to increase investment with the adoption of the Ewro.

Now that the adoption of the Ewro in our country has come about, the people have the right to know what was the total expenditure that we made to change our currency.

We know what was the expense for the Committee for the Ewro Changeover (the NECC) during three years.

According to the Government estimates, the expenses amounted to €2,542,000.

We also know what the Central Bank of Malta paid to the European Union Central Bank.

It paid €3,583,000 for its share in the Union Bank, and gave it €36,553,000 foreign reserves made up of American dollars and gold.

We have spent much more to make the coins at the French mint and to bring them and the Ewro paper money to Malta.

And what the changeover to the Ewro cost us in man-hours for hundreds of employees, God only knows.

And naturally, the taxes paid by the people that had to make good for these enormous expenses, that no one had the decency to give satisfaction to the Maltese people also know.

With them we also have to add the great expenses that were made for last Saturday’s celebrations and the dinners, from which the Maltese people acquired nothing, not even the smallest enthusiasm.

Abuse and shame by the Maltese Parliament

Next week the Maltese Parliament is expected to vote in favour of the resolution for the ratification of the treaty of Lisbon of the European Union, that the Maltese Prime Minister and the Minster for Foreign Affairs signed last 13 December.

The discussion in the Maltese Parliament is going to be no discussion of the Treaty at all.

Not because the Treaty is nothing, but because it is going to be no discussion at all.

Because the members of Parliament of both sides are going to vote in favour, after hearing sermons praising the Treaty, praising the European Union, and congratulating our country that it is now going to add another seat in the farcical Union Parliament, on the strength of the Treaty.

As they did in July 2005 when they voted in favour of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe, the members of Parliament are going to accept that the European Union be given new powers that the national Parliaments of the member countries are going to cede to it by the Treaty of Lisbon.

This amounts to an abuse by the members of the Maltese Parliament that were not given the right by the Maltese and Gozitans that they represent, to cede to foreigners the powers that the Maltese Parliament has in the sectors that the Treaty of Lisbon is going to pass on to the European Union.

Another shame that the members of Parliament are going to do when they vote in favour of the Treaty of Lisbon is that they are going to increase the instances where the will of the majority of the Maltese Parliament is going to end up into nothing because the country will have to submit to the decisions taken by the majoritry of the governments of the union countries, against the contrary vote of the Maltese Government that may find itself in a minority.

With the vote in favour of the Treaty of Lisbon, the representatives of the Maltese and Gozitan people in the Maltese Parliament are going to accept that in the new sectors that the Treaty of Lisbon is not going to leave to the consent of every country, the will of the foreigners will overcome the will of all the Maltese and Gozitan people, and the representatives of the people shall have to pass through the Maltese Parliament the Union decisions that the Maltese Government would not have agreed with.

Both in the case of the granting of new powers to the European Union, as well as in the case of new decisions that are taken by majority and not with unanimity, the members of the Maltese Parliament that vote in their favour when they vote in favour of the Treaty of Lisbon will be acting without the right given to them by the Maltese and Gozitans that when they voted for them in the general election, elected them to lead according to the powers given to them by the Constitution of Malta, and not to cede some of their powers to foreign persons who were never elected by the Maltese people.

If the Maltese Parliament does not vote in favour of the Treaty fo Lisbon, it will not enter into effect.

Therefore the Maltese Parliament has the opportunity to tell the Union that, if it does not allow the Malta Shipyard to continue to operate after December this year, with the required aid, Parliament is not going to vote in favour of the Treaty because the work of 1,700 workers is more precious than the European Union for the Maltese people.

During the last few weeks there were two developments in the relations between Malta and Switzerland.

The first event is the signing of the agreement about the granting of one million eight hundred thousand Ewros to our country, as a contribution that Switzerland pays for the free access that it has to the Maltese market.

The second event was the signing of the agreement that our country made with the Organisation for Innovation (CERN) near Geneve, in Switzerland, for Maltese engineers to take part in research and innovation projects.

These two agreements teach us what opportunities of collaboration with other countries our country can have, even if it is independent and not a memebr of the European Union.

The first agreement about the granting of funds in consideration for the free access for Swiss products and services to the Maltese market, ought to show us how our country can acquire funds from those countries that want to sell their products and services in our market.

It should be Malta’s established policy that for a foreign country, in the European Union or outside it, have access to the Maltese market, should compensate for this right, by the granting of funds to our country.

This policy of compensation is operated by, apart from Switzerland, also Norway, with the countries of the European Union.

In fact, Norway, which similarly to Switzerland is in the European Economic Area, is going to give to Malta two million three hundred thousand Ewros, according to what is stated in the Government estimates.

The agreement on the granting of funds is not the first case of the collaboration of Switzerland with our country.

During the leadership of Architect Mintoff, Switzerland had accepted to help our country to set up the Fellenberg Electronics Institute at Kordin.

A great number of electronic technicians received their training in it and today the Institute forms part of the College of Science and Technology.

Many Maltese youths went to Switzerland for training, from welders to apprentice students in catering and work in hotels.

More recently, with the collaboration of Switzerland, the Mediterranean Academy of Diplomatic Studies and the International Law Institute were set up.

The first big factory that was set up around 50 years ago, the foreign Spinning and Weaving for Malta, Phoenix, had shareholders from Switzerland, and sent the first youth operators to train in Switzerland.

Notwithstanding that many Swiss politicians wanted their country to become an EU member, the majority of the Swiss people, like the majority of the Norwegians, voted agaainst membership in the European Union.

If yes, help CNI in its work so that the majority of the people would want to get rid of European Union rule.
