Congratulations Martin, as myself was a former Sub-Editor of l-Orizzont and founder member of the Malta Press Club I wish you success in your career and better cooperation between us journalists.

Well done Martin. Hearty congrats. It comes as a dose of relief to find Cospicuans featuring in the news in such a positive light - especially after all the negative coverage our town has been the subject of in recent weeks. I think the local authorities should do more to highlight the high civic and national profile of notable townspeople - both past and present -
