A current topic in conversation is about foreign workers in Malta. Since I recently took up residence in a care home, I have been tended by such personnel round the clock with care and dedication.

What is intriguing is that they come to tiny Malta to earn their living from much larger countries, such as India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Serbia, Macedonia, Lithuania, Hungary, Brazil, Germany, UK, Holland and Nepal, and, together with some locals, they provide a first-class service in keeping with the home’s aim of affording care, compassion and competence.
