​The Hon. Anglu Farrugia, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Parliament of Malta, during his address at the 10th Annual Conference of the Parliamentary Network held in Baku Azerbaijan, quoted the IMF report where in the case of Malta, it noted that it has done very well when compared to other countries during the financial crisis in the face of which Malta has shown "remarkable resilience", with a solid and robust growth and sound banking system, yet it still admonished Malta to cut on social spending like health spending.

 

Hon. Anglu Farrugia stated that this has been very unfair with regards to his country when contrary to other countries that may have shown lack of foresight.
