Abraham Said Invested As a Knight of the Italian Distillers Corporation
Vini e Capricci honoured by Italian Distillers Corporation Vini e Capricci owner Abraham Said has been inducted as a Cavaliere della Corporazione degli Acquavitieri Italiani (Knight of the Italian Distillers Corporation) of the region of Asti, Italy. For Mr Said, this was a totally unexpected gesture, a memorable event which came as a complete surprise to him. He recalls how it came about: “Last November I was in Italy on holiday with my wife Michelle and we visited Distillerie Berta in Asti, Piemonte. The owner, Gianfranco Berta, told me to keep 23 May, 2004, free. ‘Make sure you are here,’ he said. ‘We will have the ceremony of the Corporazione Acquavitieri.’” They kept the date and arrived a day before. On the morning of the event they went to the distillery and asked about the dress code and what the event was all about. The owner, Gianfranco Berta, who is the Grand Master of the Corporazione degli Acquavitieri Italiani, was not there but his brother, Chicco, did not give much away and just told them to be there at 5 p.m. The only indication Mr Said had was a request a few weeks back for his CV. Gianfranco wanted to know more about his business and his general background, he was told, although Gianfranco had attended the opening of Vini e Capricci in Xewkija in person last October. “When we arrived at 4.50 p.m., I immediately realised that the event was something far superior to what I was expecting. I started seeing certain cars stopping, all with drivers, and on our way in when we gave our names, the girl at reception stuck a rosette on my lapel. -

At present a total of 2,412 sites and monuments have been published by the Superintendence on the Government Gazette, while 4,087 records have been recorded on CHIMS, as shown on the following tables: Sites published in Government Gazette by Number of Theme records Historical, military and archaeological sites 25 Historical and archaeological sites 35 Knights Fortifications 389 Scheduled Property 125 Chapels and Niches 1,838 Total 2,412 Records uploaded on CHIMS by Total Theme Heritage Sites 2492 Archaeological Interventions 10 Artefacts 1568 Guardianship Deeds 15 Total 4,087 2 2. -
Valletta, Our Capital City
VALLETTA, OUR CAPITAL CITY A CITY BUILT BY GENTLEMEN FOR GENTLEMEN The story of Malta's capital is inextricably linked with the island's mythology – after laying Valletta's foundation stone in 1566 the Knights of St John created an elegant baroque city from an arid, empty peninsula. But, don’t imagine that it’s just a relic of the past. Behind the foreboding fortifications you’ll find a living city that still has plenty of stories to tell, home to ground breaking contemporary architecture, delicious cuisine and a thriving nightlife scene. Valletta – built by the Knights of St John on a peninsula that's only 1km by 600m. Its founder decreed that it should be 'a city built by gentlemen for gentlemen', and it retains its 16th-century elegance. It may be small, but it's packed full of sights; when Unesco named Valletta a World Heritage Site, it described it as 'one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world'. The Renzo Piano–designed City Gate, Parliament Building and Opera House have changed the cityscape and galvanised it into life. These sights, along with Valletta's status as European Capital of Culture for 2018, have seen the city reborn, with new museums, restored golden-stone fortresses, and new hotels, bars and restaurants in converted 16th-century mansions. VALLETTA A VERY IMPORTANT CAPITAL CITY THESE DAYS.. EU Presidency 2017 is a big year for Malta as the island takes over the Presidency of the Council of the European Union together with Netherlands and Slovakia. The European Presidency programme takes place over 18 months, and is split into three successive presidencies known as Presidency Trios. -
