Sometimes I question my activity as a member of the education fraternity where through my life in Malta I was never selected to act as Director of any Company, nor Chairman of any concern grouped institutions, but I acted as Chairman of promotion boards and scholarship boards, Representative of the court in some important investigation. I did confidential work with Prime Ministers and worked so close to students in workshops and laboratories, I just finished an investigation on someone's death where I was surrounded by members of the health and safety and Sahha u sigurta where one has to make decisions, I gave advice to chairman's of companies and so many other back-room efforts.

It does appear that to be vociferous and to be seen in public is the best qualifications for certain positions in Malta, anyway this seems to be encouraging to know that no one has been selected to fill this post, for it seems that everybody in Malta is now acting like me giving a handsome contribution in silence unseen but the majority. Some of the people who are selected as CEO and Chairmen seem to have a premeditated career and are pumped up a long time before they get there. It seems that there was not enough pumping up to produce such a chairman!!!! Incidentally the pumping up is from both sides, within the group or from the authorities themselves. Oh by the way I have noticed in the last thirty years that "council" is being used as training grounds for political affiliations . Well at my stage in life , no one can take my right to observe what goes on around me. I think I am pretty sharp in this observation.
