MIDI plc will soon be offering a further 59 new apartments on plan at Tigné Point. These apartments are scheduled for completion in 2005 and most enjoy views of Valletta and the entrance to the Grand Harbour over the soon to be restored 18th century Fort Tigné.

This new phase has already attracted international attention, particularly in the UK, where an advertising campaign is under way in the media.

"We were overwhelmed by the response from Maltese buyers to the first group of apartments which were put on sale last December," MIDI's marketing manager James Vassallo said.

"Tigné Point Marketing Ltd, a subsidiary of MIDI, has had an extremely busy period. I am sure that this success will be carried forward overseas, where we have already discovered, from the significant number of enquiries received, that Tigné Point is proving to be a popular choice."

MIDI plc has selected Premier Resorts Ltd of Richmond to market the new properties at Tignè Point in the UK. Premier Resorts are property niche market specialists who have worked with many of the world's top companies in the leisure and resort development sectors: their innovative approach to sales and marketing has resulted in many successes.

In the past six years, five of its clients have won gold at the prestigious International Property Awards ceremony. The apartments at Tigné Point have been specifically designed to take advantage of the natural light and the magnificent panorama of Valletta while also benefiting from a unique, landscaped car-free environment.

"Tigné Point aims to bring a new concept in urban living to Malta. This will be achieved through a combination of modern architecture with the preservation and restoration of the site's older features, all of which will converge on the pjazza where a relaxing urban centre will merge with a stylish hub of commercial activity," Benjamin Muscat, MIDI's chief executive officer, said.
