Tunbridgeb aDepartment of Planning, University of Groningen, Groningen, the Netherlands; bDepartment of Geography, Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada ABSTRACT Using heritage resources within local urban regeneration is rarely a simple matter of preserving some structures or relating some historical events and presuming that this will make some contribution to the contemporary objectives of regeneration. Buildings, spaces and historic narratives are not in themselves heritage but they can become it.

  • 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.

  • Prime Minister Joseph Muscat Hails Malta's Links with Royal Family
    22 CONSULATE OF MALTA IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA NEWSLETTER DECEMBER 2013 FRANK L SCICLUNA - HON CONSUL - LINKING MALTA AND AUSTRALIA Tel: (08) 8269 2948 EMAIL: [email protected] Prime Minister Joseph Muscat hails Malta’s links with royal family Prince Charles drew riotous laughter from guests at a Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting on Friday evening when he recounted a colourful anecdote of waterskiing with Malta’s former Prime Minister Dom Mintoff. Speaking at Friday’s CHOGM banquet, Prince Charles recalled how, as a student, he had gone waterskiing with Prime Minister Mintoff and, despite having been nicknamed ‘the Action Man Prince’, Mintoff had bested him at the athletic sport and left the Prince treading water in his wake. In his speech, the Prince recounted stories about world leaders he had met and the countries he had visited over the past decades. At one point, the Prince of Wales recounted how he had gone waterskiing with Mintoff until he could not handle it anymore and let go of the rope. “I let go of the rope, he went on and I never saw him again!” Prince Charles recounted, reportedly leaving his heads of governments audience in ‘hysterics’, according to reports from insiders at the banquet. Although he did not say exactly when this incident had taken place, outdistancing the young and very active prince was quite a feat, considering the fact that Mintoff was 32 years older than the Prince. Prince Charles added: “The result of all this over all these years is that I feel very much part of a family, it’s in my blood – I hate to tell you – and I’ve been brought up in the family.

  • Valletta: the Pride of What Makes Us a Maltese and European Nation (Speaker’S Notes) Dr
    Valletta: The Pride of what makes us a Maltese and European Nation (speaker’s notes) Dr. Lawrence Gonzi 1. Why the title ? Because Valletta is one of those special features of our island nation that brings us together, that merges us into one nation, that brings out in the open our character, our values, our identity our history - all those ingredients that make us what we are and that distinguish us from other nations and other peoples surrounding us. The architecture, the style, the successes and the failures, the beautiful and the ugly, the social mix, the economic mix – all this showcases our own identity. This is why I emphasise the sense of pride that we should all have in our capital city and which must continue to propel us towards 2018, 2020 and beyond. 2. A quick look at the past and the present : I speak as a Vallettan. I speak as a Maltese that is today proud of a capital city in which I lived during my childhood and my youth, in which I worked during my adulthood as a professional and as a politician and in which I enjoy savouring what is happening in my country which is today a proud European Nation and which in 2018 will celebrate Valletta as the European capital of culture. 3. Has Valletta changed and has it changed for the better ? Yes. A vast amount of restoration works have been carried out and key buildings have today been restored to their former grandeur (inside and outside) : Castille. St John’s Cathedral.
