Business leaders speak out on European membership, modernization & privatization
"The issue is not about the economy or bringing money into the country, it is the security and the social and economic benefits that are important."
"Membership will allow Malta to continue to develop business, since there is a small internal market, which will then
have a social benefit."
"Membership will provide even more access to a huge market and large trading bloc."
"Many customers are not familiar with Malta, so membership will change the perception of Malta to the reality."
"There are plusses and minuses to membership, but on the balance, membership is positive."
"With good negotiations there are lots of opportunities, but if the negotiations become too politicized the economy will suffer."
"The insurance industry has already started the painful, but necessary process of liberalization."
"Malta’s future is bound to membership; there is no alternative."
"Privatization will help change the culture of Malta."
"The internationalization of Malta is not an option, but a must."
"Membership will aid the development of the financial industry and promote technological development as well as increase trade deals."
"Malta’s past has been chartered and it is very interesting; our future has yet to be and combined with the future of the Mediterranean, Malta’s future will be very interesting."
"For EU membership to be successful, we need to communicate the benefits with the citizens of Malta."
