Please Remember That in Malta We Drive on the Left Hand Side

Directions to The Chateau The trip from the Airport to The Chateau should take approximately 15 minutes. Once one leaves the airport, one reaches a round about (Fig. 1) leading to Luqa, Kirkop and Gudja. One has to take a right and head towards Gudja. The arrival to this village is enhanced by the view of Palazzo Bettina, a palace belonging to one of Malta’s most noble families (Fig. 2). Fig. 1 Fig. 2 Once this palace is reached, one then turns right towards the village of Ghaxaq. After driving through the by-pass of this village one reaches another round about (Fig. 3). If one drives straight one reaches our destintation, that is the village of Zejtun (Fig. 4). Fig. 3 Fig. 4 Once one reaches this village, one has to drive along a straight long road at the end of which one will take a left, drives by a secondary school and then reaches a small open space. A landmark in this open space is a public garden dating back to the British Colony period of Malta (Fig. 5). After driving by this garden, one will then reach and an old people’s home (Fig. 6). Fig. 5 Fig. 6 A block of social housing apartments is then reached on the left hand side. Having surpassed this social housing complex, one will be approaching the outskirts of the village of Zejtun. The road in question leads to Marsascala. It is here that one will then find Strawberry Hills (Fig. 7). Fig. 7 Keep going straight ahead from that Villa and turn on the first side street you will find on the right hand side of the driver. Keep driving and you will find The Chateau on the right hand side. .

The ACS Unit cannot recommend a particular individual or location and assumes no responsibility for the quality of service provided. THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE HAS ASSESSED VALLETTA AS BEING A MEDIUM- THREAT LOCATION FOR CRIME DIRECTED AT OR AFFECTING OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT INTERESTS. Please review OSAC’s Malta-specific webpage for proprietary analytic reports, Consular Messages, and contact information. Crime Threats Malta is a generally safe country that receives numerous foreign tourists on a yearly basis. However, crimes of opportunity and violent crime do occur. Most street crimes are non-violent and non-confrontational and range from scams to petty theft. Theft of cell phones, computers, money, jewelry, and iPods is common. Visitors should keep these items out of sight and only use them in safe locations. Most street criminals are unarmed and are not prone to gratuitous violence. Victims of street crime are often inattentive targets of opportunity. Women should keep purses zipped and in front of them. Wear the shoulder straps of bags across your chest. Keep your money, credit cards, wallet, and other valuables in your front pockets. In 2016, crime statistics revealed that theft was the predominate criminal offense, making up over half of the crimes committed in Malta. Assaults numbered under 1,000, with the peak being June, July, and August (height of tourism season). Nationwide crime rates are higher in areas frequented by tourists to include: St.

Migration, Surnames and Marriage in the Maltese Island of Gozo Around 1900
Journal of Maltese History, 2011/2 Migration, surnames and marriage in the Maltese island of Gozo around 1900. H.V.Wyatt Visiting Lecturer in the School of Philosophy, University of Leeds. Abstract The marriage records in the Public Registry in Gozo have been used to count the. frequency of surnames. Children with poliomyelitis and their controls from the same villages have been traced to their great grand-parents. These records have been used to trace migration to and from the larger island of Malta and the extent of consanguinity in each village. ______________________________________________________ Dr. Wyatt has held research and teaching posts in England, the United States, and the West Bank. He has taught and researched for 2 years in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh and for 4 years in Malta. He was previously Honorary Research Fellow in Public Health Medicine at Leeds University.

Scicluna-Spiteri. 35 Journal of Maltese History, 2011/2 Introduction To the north-west of Malta is the smaller island of Gozo (Fig 1), with an area of 67 square kilometres and about one tenth the population of Malta. In November 1942 poliovirus was introduced to the islands from Egypt and more than 420 children were paralysed. There were later, but smaller epidemics, until mass immunisation with the Sabin vaccine ensured that there have been no cases since 1964.

Of the Maltese Islands (Hymenoptera, Formicidae)
** STEPHEN P. SCHEMBRI * and CEDRIC A. COLLINGWOOD A REVISION OF THE MYRMECOFAUNA OF THE MALTESE ISLANDS (HYMENOPTERA, FORMICIDAE) INTRODUCTION In 1924, Emery published a short paper in which he listed seven species of ants identified by him from a small collection made by Sil- vestri on Malta (EMERY, 1924). No further work was carried out until 1968 when Baroni Urbani published a comprehensive work on the ant fauna of the Maltese group in which he added another 23 species, bring- ing the total number to 30 (BARONI URBANI, 1968a). In a further paper, BARONI URBANI (1968b) discussed the biogeography of the Maltese myrmecofauna. Collections made over the period 1975-1979 by one of us (SPS) have included 29 out of the 30 species previously recorded, and have added a further 14 to the Maltese list, bringing the total to 44 species. The present work discusses these new findings and extends the distri- bution records of BARONI URBANI (1968a). Many of the Maltese po- pulations show interesting and sometimes puzzling morphological va- riations when compared to populations of the same species from the European mainland, and these are also discussed. SPECIES LIST The name of the species is given first followed by previous re- cords from the Maltese Islands. Full data are included for the less common species. Notes on taxonomy and ecology are included where relevant. Species marked with an asterisk have not previously been recorded from the area. * 72 Brared Street, Birkirkara, Malta. ** Ministry of Agriculture, Lawnswood, Leeds, England. S.P. SCHEMBRI - C.A.
