Jien wieħed minn dawk li Jum l-Anzac iġibli ħafna swied ta’ qalb L-aktar meta niftakar f ’dawk il-qalbiena suldati li fl-aħjar żmien ta’ ħajjithom li tefgħuhom fuq quddiem fit-trunċieri ta’ Gallipoli, f ’battalja li qatt ma setgħu jirbħu.

Another top issue covering so many interesting topics

Congratulations for another well-presented issue of the Voice of the Maltese (No 297) I like the front-page photos and the mix of articles in Maltese and English covering various topics including law finance, history, sports etc.

There is no doubt that the issue of this newsletter requires lots of hard work often well into the night I like to thank the people who contribute articles to this interesting magazine

Il-ġenerali li fasslu l-invażjoni ta’ Gallipoli fit-Turkija messhom ġew mgħoddija court marshall Kienet l-agħar battalja li qatt giet imfassla Qabdu lill-Awstraljani u n-New Zealanders u s-sentenzjawhom għall- mewt Tmintax-il xahar fix-xatt iħarsu lejn it-Torok jisparawlhom minn fuq il-muntaji

Kien impossibli għall-alleati li l jirbħu Kienet il-qlubija tas-suldati Awtraljani u ta’ NZ, ħafna minnhom li qabdu l-azzarini għall-ewwel darba, u grazzja minn Alla li baqgħu hajjin biex bid-determinazzjoni tagħhom bnew nazzjoni

Le, ma tanx hemm x’niċċelebraw flAnzac Day u wisq iktar fil-gwerrer ta’ wara, tal-Koreja, il-Vjetnam u l-Iraq Nikkommemoraw IVA, niċċelebraw LE.

Congratulations for a great Voice

Interesting comment about the current Church decision-makers being too old (VOM April 15); well, you can have them either too old or too young At present, the Church leaders are men of experience We have no female cardinals or bishops, so the decisions are already slanted.

There must be some balance I am still determining what can be done in an administration steeped in tradition It needs to meet the modern world. They have to get a move on NOW

Through this letter I wish to convey my thanks and of thousands of other members of the Maltese community, I am sure, for the interesting magazine (The Voice of the Maltese) that you present to us every fortnight

To be honest, I was never a Maltese Herald enthusiast, and as I was growing up, like others of my age, I was more inclined to read the other professional magazine and top newspapers in Australia But at least, even that paper used to serve the Maltese community in Australia, especially my dad used to look forward to reading it every time it was published

However, as I have now gone over the age of 62, I am finding out that The Voice of the Maltese manages to has its attractions for people like me, and perhaps even for young people. Therefore I like to read it along with a couple of other Aussie weeklies that I also don’t miss So thanks and keep it up.

Vale Joseph Spiteri
