Fashion designer Giorgio Armani arrived in Malta this afternoon onboard his 65-metre yacht Main.
Built by Codecasa in Tuscany, the luxurious yacht features both external and internal designs by the stylist himself and has replaced his previous 51-metre yacht, also built by Codecasa.
The military green yacht is berthed at the Grand Harbour Marina and is expected to leave tomorrow.

Philip Paris: No you don't. What you see is where I stand in relation to your comment about people being unfairly rich and famous.

Like you, I am no expert but you need to open your eye's.
As for the hating and the jealousy, I have none. Even for the mean comment you made about the Monte.
If you read my 1st comment you will see it was a reference to people paying to much attention about the wealthy, not hating them.

@Joseph Schembri: Why are you dissing people on peoples English skills, especially when you don't use a capital letter on someone name. I'm no English major, but one of the first thing they teach us is, that a name always starts with a capital letter.
@Philip Paris: I'm not a garment expert, but I doubt Mr.Armani uses child labor in Italy. Stop the hating and the jealousy. Maybe some of the stuff you buy from the monte might use child labor in China, and I'm not sure about that either.

@Corinne Vella.
I see where you stand.
I also see where the poor and child labour stand for some of these institutions.
They are partialy responsible for his toy boat.

Philip Paris: Some media (not all) don't ignore the rich and famous because the media are in business and fame sells. You have the option of ignoring them.

@Joseph Schembri
What worries me is, that in this country, there are people who are ready to find faults/mistakes. I just wanted us to have a bit of a smile on our faces not a smirk. Feel free to check my sentence construction. Chill out Joe!

@rosemarie dorekens.
What is worrying is that many people receive a university 'education' and then at the end they cannot construct a simple sentence. They even get a degree to boot!

@Corinne Vella.
I agree with you.
My point is why do we, the ordinary people and media pay so much attention to the rich and famous.

Phillip Paris: Giorgio Armani wasn't always wealthy. He's not wealthy now because of government handouts financed by other people's taxes. He's wealthy because he and his partner built a successful global business. It's called private enterprise. Some try it, some don't.

My grandmother always screamed Viva Giorgio Viva Giorgio Viva Giorgio in the sixties and early seventies. I had no idea she loved Mr Armani so much.

Why do we all give attention to the rich and famous.
Me and you pay to much taxes, get really nothing in return, and still cannot make a better life for our families.
People are homeless and starving in Europe and this jokers has to show off his wealth that he made off gulable ordinary people.
Wake up people!

But if the Frontex boats were any bigger, they will be able to carry more 'immigrants' to Malta. So, thank heavens for small mercies.
And @ S. Bonnici... it is a yacht.. ;-)

Giorgio don't forget to go to Qormi, and visit San Gorg's Church. Design a nice gold piece for him.

Give us a break!

Mr/Ms Bonnici, it is a yacht - a motor/power yacht not a sailing yacht. A cabin cruiser usually measure between 25 and 40/45 feet. This is much bigger. You certainly have a point in saying that "even bigger than the Frontex boats that are supposed to be guarding our waters"!!!
S.Bonnici

It is a cabin cruiser, not a yacht. Aren't yachts supposed to have sails? Well, anyway his thingie is even bigger than the Frontex boats that are supposed to be guarding our waters. That's the way of the world.
