Over the past 50 years or so the locality of Santa Luċija in Malta has developed into a beautiful and popular residential area. It was all part of a very successful social project to provide better housing.

But of late, a number of houses, partly subsidised by the taxpayer, have been pulled down to be replaced by ugly blocks of flats. All this to the detriment of the locality, and with the real possibility of transforming Santa Luċija into a veritable slum area. So what has developed as part of a social project has been hijacked by land speculators, and all this with Mepa's blessing.
