People’s voice cannot be and will not be denied

The decision by the Environment Protection Directorate not to recommend the tourist complex development at Ħondoq ir-Rummien for approval is an extremely welcome one and an affirmation of common sense.

A huge thank you should go to Paul Buttigieg who over nine years has acted as a catalyst for the people power that will hopefully save Ħondoq ir-Rummien. A huge thank you should also go to every individual who sent an SMS, an e-mail, a letter to the papers, signed an online petition, made a phone call, attended a meeting, made a donation and made their voice heard in their protest against the unwarranted development of Ħondoq.

Maybe one voice cannot be heard by itself but when we all shout together, we can all, individually, make a difference.
