It is only fair for the two groups of our compatriots who fell for their country in 1798 and 1919 to have their monuments placed opposite each other at the Palace Square.
On January 12, 1999 (sitting no. 48) my then colleague Joe Debono Grech and myself jointly proposed that both monuments should be located where the tragic events took place.
This is an appeal to the government to consider positively this proposal to the satisfaction of the people of Malta.
