MALTESE EMBASSY IN BERLIN CO-ORDINATES GERMAN Lions Club Malta Evening in Halle an der Saale

The Lions Club of Halle an der Saale organized a Malta evening at the Kempinski Hotel and Congress-Centre Rotes Ross, in Halle an der Saale, Germany.

The event was co-ordinated by the Embassy of Malta in Berlin, while Air Malta and the Malta Tourism Office in Frankfurt and members of the Lions Club were the main sponsors. During the course of the evening, Malta’s Ambassador to Germany, Mr William C. Spiteri, delivered a speech on Malta’s historical and archaeological heritage and on Malta’s attraction as a tourist resort.

The speech also focussed on Malta’s economic and political realities and emphasised the island’s potential as a manufacturing base, and as a maritime, ship repair, trans-shipment and financial centre.

Entertainment was provided by the two Maltese musicians, Mr Mario Falzon and Mr Andrew Micallef, while Maltese food was served during the evening.

At the end of the evening a cheque for the sum of € 2500 (Lm 1,000) was donated to Ambassador Spiteri by the members of the Halle Lions Club to be used for a Maltese philanthropic cause.
