Malta Employers Congratulates Political Leaders Following General Election

Malta Employers extends its congratulations to the Partit Laburista on its victory in the General Election and looks forward to engaging in constructive social dialogue with Prime Minister Dr Robert Abela and the new Government on the key economic and social challenges facing the country, particularly those relating to employment, industrial relations, competitiveness and sustainable economic development.

The Association also congratulates the Partit Nazzjonalista and its leader, Dr Alex Borg, on the in-roads registered in this election. A stronger and more effective Opposition is an essential pillar for a healthier democracy, good governance and better accountability throughout the forthcoming legislature.

Malta Employers further commends both political leaders, Dr Robert Abela and Dr Alex Borg, for conducting a largely constructive electoral campaign characterised by mutual respect and a commitment to national unity. At a time when many countries are experiencing increasing political polarisation, the tone adopted throughout much of the campaign and immediately after the publication of the result, demonstrated a shared recognition that the national interest must remain paramount.
