Mill 1832 Malta kellha diversi Kostituzjonijiet li gew moghtija fil 1849, 1887, u 1903 qabel in- 1921, li ma kinux jissodisfaw l’aspirazjionijiet tal-poplu Malti u kien fit 8 ta’ Jannar tal-1850 l i l’ewwel-Kunsill tal-Gvern kien iltaqa go din il–kamra, fejn il-Gvernatur kien ghamel l’ewwel diskors min fuq it-tron, li beda jis-sejjah min dik in-nhar bhala: “The Speech from the throne” , u wara li Malta saret Republika, mill-Legislatura tan- 1976 beda jissejah lis-speach tal- President. Kinet il-kostituzjoni tan 1921 li stabilit li il-Lingwa Ufficjali ta’ Malta u tal-Aministrazjoni kien L-inglis, u t-Taljan il-lingwa tal-Qorti. Wara l’irvellijiet tas-7 Junju tan-1919 wasalna ghall 1921 kostituzjioni, li kienet l’ewwel wahda ta’ Self-Government, ghax din il-kostituzjoni kienet tat lil-Gvern Malti, id-dritt li jillegisla, u jamministra fuq affarijiet purament locali. Kien hemm sewg kmamar , wahda l’Assemlea Legislativa b-32 membri , siggiejiet, eletti ghal-3 snin, li riedu jissodisfaw certi kondizjonijiet, u l’ohra is-Senat , eletti ghall sitt snin, compost minn-17 il-membru, 10 minn fost il-kleru, nobilta, professjonisti, karma tal kumerc u trade unions, u 7 membri li riedu jissodisfaw certi kondizjonijiet, mill poplu. Malta u Ghawdex kienu maqsuma fi-tmien distretti. Seba distretti f’ Malta, u wiehed f’Ghawdex. 1 “l-ministri kienu seba” u kien stabilit; “Kunsill Esekutiv” compost min-Ministry appuntati mill Gvernatur. “Kunsill Nominat” compost mill-Lieutenant Governor u l-Legal Advisor bhala ex-officio members, u Ufficial mill-Army u n-Navy appountati mir-Re jew mill-Gvernatur. “Privy Council” compost f’limkien mill Kuncill Esekutive u l-Kunsill Nominat. Din il-Kostituzjoni hadmet sal-1928-30, meta inholqot il-kwistjoni bejn Stat u Knisja u giet sospisa fil-1930. Il-Kostitutioni tal-1936, kienet temporanja, u fil-1939 giet l-Mac Donald Constitution, fejn il- Kunsill tal-Gvern gie stabilit ghall erba’ snin, compost min 20 Membru, hamsa ex ufficio, tliet Membri Ufficiali, u tnejn mhux Ufficiali, nominati mill-Gvernatur, u 10 Membri eletti mill- poplu. Il-Gvernatur kien jippresedi. Malta u Ghawdex kienu maqsuma f’sewg divisjonijiet elletorali min fejn hames Membri setu jigu eletti minn kull distrett F’din il-legislatura din is-sala rat lil-Dr Nerik Mizzi jigi arrestat u internat fil-Fortizza tas- Salvatur, ma Maltin ohra, u fil-1942 gew mibutin l-Uganda. Post Dr Nerik Mizzi go din il-kamra baqa vojt ma tul il-qwerra kollha. Meta saret din id-deportazjoni ta’ Dr Nerik Mizzi, u ohrajn, Sir Ugo Mifsud mexxej tal-Partit Nazjonalista, fid’ 9 ta’ Frar 1942, ghamel diskors imqanqal f’ din il-karma, fejn widdeb il-gvern Inglis kontra din id-deportazjoni illegali. “Without trial” , u waqt dan id-diskors hasu hazin, u miet jumejn wara. Baqa f’din il-karma min naha tal-Partit Nazjon Dr Giorgio Borg Olivier, li spicca wahdu jivotta kontra il-mozzjoni ta’ deportazjoni. FJan tal-1945 t’laqqghet Assemblea Nazzjonali taht il–Presidenza tal-Konti Sir Luigi Preziosi biex tiformola Kostituzjoni, u b’ risultat ta’dan, saret l’elezjoni tan 1945 ghal- Kunsill tal-Gvern, fejn il-vot gie moghti ghal-l’ewwel darba, lil-irgiel kollha il-fuq min 21 sena, u d-distretti kienu tnejn. F’din l’elezjoni kienu hadu sehem biss il-Partit Laburista u l- Partit ta’Jones. Fil’ 5-ta’ Settembru 1947, giet il-Kostituzjoni Mac Michael, fejn l-vot gie-moghti lil-kullhad irgiel u nisa il-fuq mill-21 sena u l-elezjoni saret f’ottubru 2 Min din il-legislatura il-Gvernatur ma baqax ikompli jikonferma in-nomina ta’ Speaker u deputy Speaker. Is-Senat tnehha ghall-kollox. Il-legislatura saret ghall 4 snin u l-Membri saru 40, id-distretti saru tminja b’ hames Membri eletti bis-sistema proporzjonali min kull-distrett. Din kienet l’ewwel darba li din il-kamra rat mara toccupa siggu ghax kient giet eletta, is- sinjorina Agata Barbara. Ma tul-din il-legislatura din il-karma rat il-qasma tal-partit Laburista taht Dr P Boffa, u l-hatar tal-Perit Dom Mintoff, bhala mexxej tal-Malta Labour Party. Fil-1950 din il-karma rat lil-Dr Nerik Mizzi Prim Ministru, j’mexxi Gvern ta’ minoranza, u wara mewtu fil-20 Decembru 1950, lahaq Dr G Borg Olivier, li billi kellu Gvern ta minoranza kien meghlub diversi drabi u din L–Assembleja Legislativa giet xolta fi-frar tan-1951. Din il-karma rat-Gvernijiet ta’ koalizzjoni fil-1951 u fil-1953 bejn il-Partit Nazjonalista taht Dr G Borg Olivier, u il-Partit tal-Malta Workers Party immexxi min Dr P Boffa. Fin 1955 din il-kamra rat dibattiti fuq il-proposta tal-Prim Ministru il-Perit Dom Mintoff fuq il- proposta tal-l’ Integration ta’ Malta ma L’Ingilterra, u meta il-Perit Dom Mintoff kisirha mal Gvern Inglis, rat lil- Dr G Borg Olivier jissaportja il-mozzjoni tal: “Break with Britain Resolution” . Wara ir-risenja ta’ Mintoff fil-1958 , din il-kamra rat “Kunsill tal Gvern” sal 1962, ippreseduta mill-Gvernatur, ghall-lahhar darba. Jien gejt elett l’ewwell darba fin-1962 , u din il-karma rat dibattiti fuq il-proposta tal Gvern Nazjonalista fuq L-Indipendenza ta’ Malta. Dak iz zmien L’ opposizjioni kienet komposta minn Membri ta 4 Partiti, li kollha kellhom riservi fuq il-kostituzjioni kif kienet proposta, u ivvotaw kontra. Sar referendum jekk il poplu kienx japprova jew le il Kostituzjion Ghall- Indipendenza ta Malta kief kien iproponija il Gvern Nazjionalista u ir-referendum ghadda u Malta saret Indipendenti fil 21 ta’ Settembru tan-1964. B’din il kostituzjoni il Parlament sar ghal-hames snin b’hamsin Membru, u ir Regina Elizabetha It- Tieni bhala ir-Regina ta’ Malta. Inaugurat seduta tal-ftuh tal-Parlament f’ Nov -1967, u bdiet id-diskors tahha: “I come to you as the Queen of Malta” 3 F’April tan-1966, jien sirt Speaker, u ghallura stajt mill-vicin, nosserva, minn fuq din is-sedja iz- zewg protagonist tal-politika Maltija ta’ dak iz- zmien. Kont nista napprezza l’inteligenza, il- forsight, il methodi politici diversi ta’ dawn is-sewg kolonni politici kbar li din il Kamra kellha - Dr G Borg Olivier u il-Perit Duminku Mintoff, li it-tnejn bill kapacita u mehodi differenti taghhom, it-tnejn riedu li Malta tkun indipendenti u hadmu ghall dan il-ghan. Niftakar meta fin-1962 il-Ministru Giovanni Felice kien qieghed jitkellem fuq “lis-speach from the throne” , fejn kien intqal: “My Ministers will be actively exploring Malta’s participation in the Common Market” , qam Mintoff u qallu, naqblu imma biex taghmel dan: “l’ewwel Malta trid tkun Independenti”. Din kienet il-vizjoni kostutizjonali taghhom. Kont nista naghra mill-vicin kif dawn iz-zewg politiici kbar kienu jikumplementaw lil-xulxin. Dak li kien niqes f’wiehed kien f’liehor u vice versa. B’harsa kienu jifthemu. Nonostante li il- methodi taghhom kienu diversi, u kul tant kienu jinqdew b’xulxin, biex jottienu dak li jkun iridu min-ghand il-Gvern Inglis, dejem kellhom rispett kbir lejn xulxin. Dak iz-zmien il-procedura kienet li meta Bill jigi gat-tielet qari, lis-Speaker jghid, Those in Favour, Those against, Il-Bill ghadda Meta tressaq il-Bill fejn is-siggiet tal-karma min 50 kien ser isiru 55, meta wasalna ghat-3 qari, jiena bzajt li dan il-Bill kien ser jispicca quddiem il-Qrati taghna, kif fil-fatt gara, u bzajt li nigi mistoqsi, kif kont-taf li fit-tielet qari il Gvern kellu maggoranza. Ghallura ghall-lewwel darba gelt il-Membri li kienu ivvotaw IVA jqumu bil wieqfa u ghaddejthom u kekk kont sgur li l-Gvern kellu maggoranza u il-Bill Ghadda mit 3 qari. Din il-procedura giet segwita min Speakers ta’ waraja. F’din il legislature din il karma rat lil-Malta tidhol fil Kunsill tal’ Europa, fil-United Nations u l’agenzi taghha, u ghaqdiet internazjonal ohra. Malta ghall l’ewwel darba kellha l’affarijiet baranin f’idejha, u inholoq id- Dipartiment tal Foreign Affairs, u ghal-lura gew stabiliti relazjioijiet fuq livel ta Ambaxaturi u High Commissioners ma, L’Amerika, L’Ingilterra, L’Australja, L’Italia, Spanja, L’ Ordni tal Kavalieri ta’ San Gwan, Il Vatican, Israel, L’Libja, L’Egittu, u Tunis. Saru ligijiet ta’ infrastruttura, u fosthom insibu: Bill to establish the development corporation, The central bank act; 4 To enable Malta to become member of the International Monetry fund; Bank act; Malta armed forces act, u ohrajn. Fin 1971 Il-Perit Dom Mintoff kien Prim Ministru, u irrevedi it- trattat economiku u ta’ difisa mal- Gvern Inglis li gie estis sa lewwel ta’ April tan 1979. T’waqfet L- Air Malta.

  • The Life and Times of Sir Anthony Mamo
    SPEECH BY HIS EXCELLENCY DR GEORGE ABELA, PRESIDENT OF MALTA, ON THE OCCASION OF THE INAUGURATION OF THE SIR ANTHONY MAMO HALL. SAN ANTON PALACE. THURSDAY 22 ND APRIL 2010. The year was 1909. Edward VII, son of Queen Victoria, reigned over Great Britain. His relatives, Kaiser Wilhelm II and Tsar Nicholas II, were still in power. The British Empire had reached its zenith; India was its jewel in the crown. Barely fifty years before, the unification of Italy had taken pace and King Vittorio Emmanuele III was now on the throne. Tunisia and Algeria were both French colonies with sizeable Maltese migrant communities. Malta was then a colony, administered by a British Governor, the Maltese having almost no say in the shaping of their own destiny. Hardly more than a mere fortress, Malta’s economy depended on the defence needs of the Empire. The Maltese economy depended entirely on the needs of the empire. Social conditions of the Maltese were poor and education was within the grasp of only a few. The towns around the harbours were densely populated whilst the villages were under-developed with few roads and a few hundred automobiles. Social services were almost inexistent. In Birkirkara, a son was born to Guzeppi and Karla Mamo, a couple of modest means. They could barely have imagined that that son would witness the complete transformation of the world and the transition of Malta from a mere colony to an independent Republic of whom he would become the first President. We are gathered here today to inaugurate this hall in his honour in this historic palace where he lived with his family during his Presidency.

  • From Generals to Generals : Aborted Insurrection, Painful Resurrection
    From Generals to Generals: 3 Aborted Insurrection, Painful Resurrection The sense of belonging to a religio-centric community has cradled patriotism and nationhood in modem times. The church was not only imperium in imperio in a wide sense; it was also to some extent a manifestation of the individual, of the particular, of the geographical environment. This cradling of patriotism by the institutional church was felt even in the Near East where Islam being a theocratic blueprint allowed less scope for it, yet scholars such as Rourani have argued that it is out of the religiousumma that the sense of a secular nationhood emerged. In situations where the ecc1esia and imperium are likely to be at odds, distinctions become easier and more formative. We have observed how it is wrong to conceive of the Rising of the Priests as an exclusively ecclesiastical occurrence. We emphasised the patriotic and political quality of the discourse that was being used, or indeed of the actions that were taken or contemplated from the accession of La Valette (indeed from the very arrival of the Order, which the Maltese nobility had reason to resent and to oppose), right down to the last days of the Order when Rompesch gave in the towel before entering the ring. 39 Malta's Quest for Independence The selection of references to 'i1 Popolo Maltese', to 'i Maltesi', and 'povera Malta' bring home to us how already in the early seventeenth century we had an embryonic nationalism. It was not the Jacobins who invented Mikiel Anton Vassalli ' s genius either for Malta as 'nazione' or for Maltese speakers as 'veri nazionali', although Vassalli's standpoint marks a note-worthy evolution in the sketching of nationality rights and self-image.
