If you want a bus service that works, then get rid of the Maltese who could not organise a piss up in a brewery and get the English to sort it out. By the way, I am an English bus driver working for Arriva in Malta. Too many old bus drivers with old bus drivers’ mentality there.

I live in a peaceful, tranquil area. However since Melita Football ground has been blossoming, our tranquility has been terminated! Last night was one of the examples! At 1:45am I was woken up from my sleep with disco music which was utterly loud and shook me up. Soon the rest of my family woke up. I could hear the song saying: "ahna tal-Melita u hadd ma jista ghalina!" and "tonight's gonna be a good night!". After half an hour I called the police and thank God the music was stopped at 2:45am. I want to tell those who organise such events to consider that there are families living near, some of which are elderly, sick and infants! You are supposed to educate the youngsters attending, consideration for others and respect, or is this not in your curriculum?

Transport Malta are money grabbers. To obtain a license to drive they are ripping off the new drivers by failing them several times even though they know very well that the driver should get a pass. May who ever is responsible gets what he deserves in the end. Robbers, cheaters, scums …

Dear Arriva,

I have been using the bus service on a regular basis for the last 30 years. I can tell you outright that your service (up to now) is a shambles and irregular. I prefer any day the previous buses (without a/c), cause before I never was late for work. Now I’m lucky if I get there at all or worse get back home after work. So you better shape up fast your service.

Dear Arriva,

Last night it took me 3.5 hours to get home from Sliema to Bugibba, all 4 busses where full! The next bus was number 12 and was not full and he drove pass the stop? PLEASE can we have more 11 and 12 busses going to bugibba. I await your response. A very upset & angry passenger!

I am a 76 years old man from Maltese ancestors. I have bring searching my family ancestor and I got records from all around the globe, but when it comes to Malta they want you to specify your family tree. The rest of the country i have written to them I got are probably good or bad. I am not asking for a part of Malta, I am asking for my ancestors family. The agency in Malta is useless, the church can not read their names in the record books, because having so many nationality in Malta. Churches did not know how to spell or they were not Maltese and wrote in Italian instead.

Could some body give some direction to try and find my ancestor? I have been writing for years, they are ignorant, they do not answer back. Here is the last place I will write, after that I will get hold of what I got and say “ancestor of known ignorant Maltese from Malta”.

To all readers,

It is utterly disgusting and unreal, how dare the prime minister allow Air Malta charging 800 Euros when other countries are offering compassionate flights for free just to get their nationals safely back home. Take this issue to the human rights organization and make the prime minister and parliament act with respect and dignity, if they know what the latter means.

Why is Air Malta taking advantage of us Maltese stuck in Libya and charging us 800 Euros for tickets to come to Malta? The Government should help us out and get us out even if we have no tickets or passports!
