Thousands celebrate Mnarja in Buskett

u Kif ga edtlek ghall-harsien tad-drittijiet tal-annimali f'dan il-qasam hemm l-Animal welfare Act... jekk ghandek xi problema draw it-trobbija mela ipponta subajk lejn l-awtoritajiet li mhumiex iharsu bizzejjed id-drittijeit ta' l-annimali u mhux tehel il-kultura ma rasek sakemm mintix xi wihed li taghmel minn kollox biex tmaqdar dak li hu malti. U ghal-Ghana jekk lilek ma toghbokx u nammeti li qas lili ma tantx tolqotni hafna ghad baqa hafna nies u naf anke 2 zghazagh partikolari li jhobbu lghana! Dan juri li hija xi haga hajja u sakemm jibqa jkun hawn nies jisimawgha ma nistghux neskluduha mil-kultura Maltija! Eh sewa jghidu li nbidlu l-maltin!! Fejn qatt kont tismaghha li xi hadd jiddefenti l-ghixien ta annimal qabel l-ghixien tas-socjeta tieghu li hija rifless tal-Kultura taghna!! Guz ahseb ftit qabel ma tikteb! naqbel mieghek fuq li qridna l-art u hemm fejn intejbu l-metodi ta trobbija. imma mhux sew naghmlu dan billi nitfghu dell ikrah fuq il-Kultura taghna u attivita li tant qed jirnexxila izzid fl-interess lejn dak li hu malti!! Kuntent li naghmel parti mil-Kultura Maltija. Mil-GDID PROSET!!

@JoeFenech nahseb kont zbaljat...jien la jien mohhni fil-produttivita u lanqas fil-kwalita,sempliciment iddefendejt il-Kultura tieghi li mid-dehra int ma tridx tkun parti minnha. Fuq il-Battrey Chickens"vera mhux l-ideal ta kif tkabbar it-tigieg, pero irridu nkunu ftit prattici! Ir-ricessjoni, u l-kompetizzjoni li dejjem qed tizdied zgur li ixxekkel xi ftit lil produtturi lokali milli jadottaw metodi ahjar. Anke b'dawn il-metodi li huma kemmxejn harxa fuq l-annimali li jitkabbru qed isibu diffikultajiet ekonomici. Jien personalment aktar mil-"battreyChickens"aktar jinkwetani x'ormoni u kimici jaghtu lill-dawn it-tigieg biex jikbru malajr u jkunu jidru prodott "ahjar" jew il-modifikazzjoni tal-genetika tat-tigieg biex ittejbu l-qligh mil-prodott. Din mhix problema lokali u m'ghandix xtaqsam mal-imnarja imma hija problema globali. U ghalkemm issa forsi ix-xjentisti jghidulna li ma hemm xejn hazin, kien hemm diversi kazi fejn wara numru ta snin jindunaw li huma ta hsara ghal bniedem fostom wihed jista jsemmi il-BSThormone li kien jinghata lilbaqar li issa qed jigi projbit minn hafna pajjizi. Nassigurak li konxju daqshekk jekk mhux iktar tat-trobbija u l metodi uzati f'dan il-qasam. biss bl-ebda mod ma nistghi nitfghu dell ikrah fuq l-Imnarja li l-iskop taghha huwa biss li tesponi il-kultura Maltija u mhux il-metodi tat-trobbija.

@Joe Fenech nahseb ghandek bzonn tqalleb ftit id dizzjunarju u ssib daqsxejn xinhi kultura; # the tastes in art and manners that are favored by a social group # acculturation: all the knowledge and values shared by a society il-kultura hija xi haga hajja li tizviluppa maz-zmien u kontinwament tigi ibbumbardjata b'influwenzi minn kulturi ohra li izda fl-ahhar mil-ahhar xorta naghtuhom dik ix-xi haga Maltija. Bl-istess mod il-Kinnie hija xarba maltija influenzata mill-"fizzy drinks" li jekk ma tafx hija maghmula minn toghmiet aromatici u naturali tal laring u xorta wahda tista tinkludiha bhala xi haga marbuta mal-kultura taghna bhal ma tista tinkludi wkoll iz-zejt taz-zebbuga,u l-gulepp tal-harrub. Dwar il-Baqar huwa fatt li meta jithallew jieklu mil-ambjent u mix-xaghri issir hsara enormi fl-ekosistema. Dan ghaliex meta jittikel hafna haxix u l-gheruq tieghu imutu il hamrija tigi aktar esposta ghall-elementi u izzid b rata mghaggla hafna id dezertifikazzjoni! Jigifrieri jonqsu is-sigar u l-arbuxelli u jizdiedu l-merghat minghajr hdura u sigar! Ghalhekk ghalkemm naqbel perfettament meighek li qridna l-art, xorta wahda ghall-klima u l-art taghna mhix ideali li thallihom jirghu fil-widien ghax il-hsara tkun qed tizdied xorta wahda!

Clint Muscat:

OK zid iol-Kinnie.. Xorta fizzy drink tibqa'! Meta ghandek festa folkoloristika missna nixorbu affarijiet naturali!

Int tidher aktar mohhok fil-produttivita milli fil-kwalita. Kieku ma konniex rghiba u ma qridnix l-art kien ikollna fejn il-baqar jieklu ikel naturali u l-annimali kien ikollhom aktar fejn jigru.

Il-fatt li m'ghandniex art ma jfisirx li ghandna nieklu u nixorbu ikel ta' kwalita baxxa. Il-battery hens per ezemplju qed jigu mwarrba minn hafna supermarkets fl-Ewropa.

Fuq iz-zwiemel u l-hmir - naf li johroguhom, pero hadd ma jista' jghidu li jghaddux il-bicca l-kbira tal-gurnata go garaxxijiet daqs naqra.

Qabel naghmlu l-Imnarja ahjar nitghallmu x'inhi biedja u ikel!!

Ghana? : Etnika u mhux Etnika - who cares! Kif jghidu l-Inglizi: they're polishing a turd!

What, no comments by Birdlife et al? Nothing about disturbing the massive amounts of chaffinches and linnets they claim have made Buskett their stronghold? And the turtle doves? Must be a first!!!!!

IMBASTA L-GHAGEB LI GHAMILTU DWAR DAK IL-PARTY LI SAR IL-BUSKETT M'ILUX!!

Bdw ghax insejt inzida

@ Joe Fenech

insejd izzid il-Kinnie mal-Coca Cola... le dak bil haqq Malti ux!! mela mhux tajjeb ma nziduhx mal-lista ma jmurx infahhruhom iz-zejjed l-affarjiet Maltin. Miskin hux prova johloq bilanc u jsemmi l-prodotti barranin biss!

@JoeFenech

Fniek:-Kemuna mimlija bihom u jghixu fis-salvagg f'Malta wkoll...jitkabbru f gaggeg ghax id-domanda ghalih mill-Maltin hija kbira u zgur li ma nistghux nonsbu l fniek fis selvagg biss ghal-ikel...ghax kieku nini nini tieklu l fenek. Huwa simbolu tal-kultura Maltija. U l-laham tieghu zgur li ghadu jintoghgob mil-Maltin,fl-opinjoni tieghi hafna itjeb minn xi burgers&chips.

Zwiemel&Hmir: qed taggibom Guz!! ma jaghmlux sena marbutin...johorguhom ta spiss u hafna milli jrabbuhom ikollom xi ghalqa biex ihalluhom jigru fiha.

Baqar: jaghtuhom ikel maghmul mil-bniedem biex izid l-efficjenza fil-produzzjoni tal-halib biex kull filghodu jkollok xi zzid mat-te jew mac-cereali.

Tigieg: "Battrey ones" tista tibqa kompetittiv fis-suq jekk ma taddotax metodi ta trobbija li jzidu l-efficjenza? kieku insiha li tiekol tigiega friska mrobbija lokalment.

Loghob Malti: Il-kultura taghna unika ghax tigbor fiha id-drawwiet kollha li zviluppajna taht hakkiema differenti li kollha hallew il-marki taghhom. L-inglizi hallew il marki taghhom ukoll fil-kultura taghna!

Ikel Malti: tmurx fl-estrem jien nikol dawk li semmejt, imma nhobb l-bigilla,l-fenek,l-istuffattal-fenek,qaghaq tal-ghasel,aljotta,hobztal-Malti.etc.

Ghana:Ghada hajja wkoll f gruppi ricenti bhal Etnika.

Animal Welfare:Dhalna fl-EU u Malta thares l-Animal Welfare Act. Responsabbilta tal-awtoritajiet li jaraw li tigi mharsa!

PROSETT nhobb kull haga li taghmilni Malti!!!

Noel D'Amato...yeah...

Rabbits: born and bred in cages!

Horses and donkeys: that spend the year tied up in garages!

Cows: which are fed dry synthetic food!

Chickens: battery ones!

All other birds: in cages!!

Maltese games: English prize wheels!

Maltese food: CHIPS, COMMERCIAL MAYONNAISE, KETCHUP, COCA COLA....!!!!

Ghana: no thank you!

Animal welfare in Imnarja and in Malta: what's that?

PROSIT!!!

Thanks should also be given to the Ministry for Resources for the great uplift made at Buskett along this month....Well Done....

Well done for the general level of organization of Imnarja activities within Buskett Gardens.

But more waste bins strategically placed around all those selling food items are a must.

Last night it was an anti climax to have this special event marred with food discards left on hedges, rubble walls, passages and everywhere.

Mnarja is a relaxing feast when thousands of Maltese and others get together to celebrate and relax. The weather this year is pretty kind well so far. At least it is not stifling hot and let's hope the temperatures stay where they are at the moment or even lower for the whole summer!!!! So St Peter and St Paul it is all in your hands now how the summer temperatures are going to pan out................
