Hi Tim.

Interesting figures! Thanks.

Government spending seems to especially off average. And that is even before they will be taking up all the unwanted and unneeded AirMalta employees after the restructuring plan is approved, that is, if it is ever finished and submitted to the EU commission.

As to economomy and business , I walked past SmartCity yesterday. Building seems to have come to a stop there as only two workers were to be seen apart from a lot of security guards guarding a mostly empty building site. Do you have any info on IT firms moving to SmartCity? Is your company relocating  there?

No we aren't moving there - at least not any time soon. Apparently they have tried to woo us, but we are not interested. We have a lease for our current location for a couple more years anyway. Apparently commercial property rates are really down, so even if we were in the market to move they would have to make it a very good deal indeed.

Interesting indeed, explains why so much competition in being awarded these contracts. Both above and below the table ;)
