🔴 Livable localities are worth more than shoddy over-tourism and real estate🤔 The Prime Minister’s claim that the construction of Manoel Island would attract so-called “quality” tourism is absurd given that most of MIDI’s project is a real estate development. Last we checked, apartment buildings blocking historic views were not high on the list of tourist attractions.💸 Moreover, claims of “foreign investment”, the results of which never seem to “trickle down” to the people, have us asking - at what cost to the public who already lives here?🌆 Virtually all of the seafront of Gżira, Sliema, and St Julians has been transformed into a chain of commercial establishments for a ruthless tourism industry and tasteless apartment blocks. This has robbed the public of decent pedestrian accessibility and public uncommercialised space. The situation has only become worse in recent years as more of the coast has been stuck off the public domain and gifted to business moguls by the current administration, the latest being Stivala’s Aqualuna Lido and Zammit Tabona’s Fortina lido which proposes stealing a slice of the sea for its jetties.👹 In addition to new monsters, an old nightmare still looms threatening - that of the construction and commercialisation of Manoel Island, gifted to MIDI plc alongside Tignè some 25 years ago and which was inaccessible to the public for most of those years. Since the community forced their rightful access to the island’s foreshore in 2016, it has been enjoyed by residents from near and far as one of the few open green spaces in the Marsamxett harbour region.🏗 Gżira does not need an additional 323 apartments. Even less does it need a new exclusive real estate project instead of the only significant space that, for the past seven years, has been a refuge from the over-constructed commercial surroundings. We will not concede losing more space to the rich and elite.🔎 If the Prime Minister truly has reservations for the privatisation deal that was made in June 2000, he should be all the more sceptical about its value to the public 24 years of over-construction and gentrification later. Residents do not want more apartment blocks blocking their vistas or another shopping mall. Residents need a public non-commercial park. Moviment Graffitti continues to stand with the public in their fight against greed.🌼 Tomorrow, a Manoel Island Picnic will be held for members of the community to meet and enjoy open space.
