I hope that whatevert hey do it will be safe and fits well with the environment to keep a peaceful sight on the eyes, NO Yellow, Red or Blue colours please. Keep it natural as Malta suffers enough from Noise and colour polution especially along Aldo Moro Road with all those stupid colourful plackards placed to cover the trees . What stupidity we live in , we are disturbing the human mind.

RE A glorified plank of wood at cost of "about €36,000" ??? , Expensive bit of wood. If I built such a piddly pontoon myself it would have cost me about 500Euros. Of course our money is there to be wasted by Government and councils - take for instance the 43,000 Euros for fairy lights in Gzira. (this quite apart from the idiocy of something that uses masses of electricity. MAd

I remember last year when the Pontoon overturned due to the massive amount of stupidity and lack of control on the extremely unstable device. I wonder if this new "pier" is going to be stable enough to hold the hundreds of tourists that visit on a daily basis.

I was lucky enough to get onto our boat an hour before the event happened last summer, but I do remember thinking to myself, "this thing is not stable and this is an accident just waiting to happen".

I remember comino as being a tranquil place to visit , now its just too over crowded which in turn spoils the experience. Maybe the Govt sjhould put a restriction on the numbers who visit daily !
