He continued with visits to Microtek Medical Malta, a company with international recognition in the manufacturing of medical products. The third visit was to MostaTech, a local company that manufactures precision sensors for the aviation sector. The last visit was to the internationally renowned local company Stargate Studios, a studio known for its work on international productions such as The Walking Dead and Black Mirror.<\/p>\n<p>In each visit, the Prime Minister noted with satisfaction the commitment of these SMEs to create quality jobs and continue to strengthen the Maltese economy. In this context, he pointed out the Government&#8217;s continued support for private enterprise through measures such as SME aid schemes and investments in industrial infrastructure. This while workers are benefiting from the largest tax reduction in history.<\/p>\n<p>The Prime Minister also praised the efforts of companies to maintain a high level of innovation and investment in research, as well as their commitment to quality jobs and the export of Maltese products and services around the world. He said that in the face of digital and environmental challenges with strategic goals also as part of the Malta 2050 Vision, these changes will occur with the strengthening of incentive policies. This is to continue to push towards innovation and quality growth among small and medium-sized enterprises, which are the backbone of the Maltese economy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As we celebrate the worker this week, we recall the Government&#8217;s commitment to continue to pursue policies in favour of employment and quality economic growth. This is in addition to working towards a fairer society that gives everyone the chance to succeed&#8221;, concluded Prime Minister Robert Abela.<\/p>\n<p>The Prime Minister concluded his visit with a meeting with the staff and management of INDIS Malta at their offices in Mosta Technopark. Here he noted the importance of INDIS Malta in helping businesses grow and translating trust in our country into economic prosperity that benefits the Maltese and Gozitan countries and families.<\/p>\n<p>Minister Silvio Schembri stated, &#8220;The four companies we visited today are testament to a diversified and innovative economy. Although a small country without natural resources, we have a great resource, the human resource, the workers. We saw workers at various levels working on innovative products. And because we believe in this great potential that our country has, we worked on a vision that will lead our country for the next 25 years. A vision based on the basic principle of having a healthy quality of life&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><em>Photo: DOI-OPM<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_47620\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"47620\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.0\" viewBox=\"0 0 502 315\" preserveAspectRatio=\"xMidYMid meet\"><g transform=\"translate(0,332) scale(0.1,-0.1)\" fill=\"\" stroke=\"none\"><path d=\"M2394 3279 l-29 -30 -3 -207 c-2 -182 0 -211 15 -242 39 -76 157 -76 196 0 15 31 17 60 15 243 l-3 209 -33 29 c-26 23 -41 29 -80 29 -41 0 -53 -5 -78 -31z\"\/><path d=\"M3085 3251 c-45 -19 -58 -50 -96 -229 -47 -217 -49 -260 -13 -295 52 -53 146 -42 177 20 16 31 87 366 87 410 0 70 -86 122 -155 94z\"\/><path d=\"M1751 3234 c-13 -9 -29 -31 -37 -50 -12 -29 -10 -49 21 -204 19 -94 39 -189 45 -210 14 -50 54 -80 110 -80 34 0 48 6 76 34 21 21 34 44 34 59 0 14 -18 113 -40 219 -37 178 -43 195 -70 221 -36 32 -101 37 -139 11z\"\/><path d=\"M1163 3073 c-36 -7 -73 -59 -73 -102 0 -56 133 -378 171 -413 34 -32 83 -37 129 -13 70 36 67 87 -16 290 -86 209 -89 214 -129 231 -35 14 -42 15 -82 7z\"\/><path d=\"M3689 3066 c-15 -9 -33 -30 -42 -48 -48 -103 -147 -355 -147 -375 0 -98 131 -148 192 -74 13 15 57 108 97 206 80 196 84 226 37 273 -30 30 -99 39 -137 18z\"\/><path d=\"M583 2784 c-38 -19 -67 -74 -58 -113 9 -42 211 -354 242 -373 16 -10 45 -18 66 -18 51 0 107 52 107 100 0 39 -1 41 -124 234 -80 126 -108 162 -133 173 -41 17 -61 16 -100 -3z\"\/><path d=\"M4250 2784 c-14 -9 -74 -91 -133 -183 -95 -150 -107 -173 -107 -213 0 -55 33 -94 87 -104 67 -13 90 8 211 198 130 202 137 225 78 284 -27 27 -42 34 -72 34 -22 0 -50 -8 -64 -16z\"\/><path d=\"M2275 2693 c-553 -48 -1095 -270 -1585 -649 -135 -104 -459 -423 -483 -476 -23 -49 -22 -139 2 -186 73 -142 361 -457 571 -626 285 -228 642 -407 990 -497 242 -63 336 -73 660 -74 310 0 370 5 595 52 535 111 1045 392 1455 803 122 121 250 273 275 326 19 41 19 137 0 174 -41 79 -309 363 -465 492 -447 370 -946 591 -1479 653 -113 14 -422 18 -536 8z m395 -428 c171 -34 330 -124 456 -258 112 -119 167 -219 211 -378 27 -96 24 -300 -5 -401 -72 -255 -236 -447 -474 -557 -132 -62 -201 -76 -368 -76 -167 0 -236 14 -368 76 -213 98 -373 271 -451 485 -162 444 86 934 547 1084 153 49 292 57 452 25z m909 -232 c222 -123 408 -262 593 -441 76 -74 138 -139 138 -144 0 -16 -233 -242 -330 -319 -155 -123 -309 -223 -461 -299 l-81 -41 32 46 c18 26 49 83 70 128 143 306 141 649 -6 957 -25 52 -61 116 -79 142 l-34 47 45 -20 c26 -10 76 -36 113 -56z m-2057 25 c-40 -58 -105 -190 -130 -263 -110 -324 -59 -707 132 -981 25 -35 42 -64 37 -64 -19 0 -241 119 -326 174 -188 122 -406 314 -532 468 l-58 71 108 103 c185 178 428 349 672 473 66 33 121 60 123 61 2 0 -10 -19 -26 -42z\"\/><path d=\"M2375 1950 c-198 -44 -350 -190 -395 -379 -18 -76 -8 -221 19 -290 114 -284 457 -406 731 -260 98 52 188 154 231 260 27 69 37 214 19 290 -38 163 -166 304 -326 360 -67 23 -215 33 -279 19z\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"http:\/\/livenewsmalta.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During a visit to four small and medium-sized enterprises in the Mosta Technopark where he met with many workers, Prime Minister Robert Abela described the Government&#8217;s work in favour of job creators and workers as important in order to translate into benefits for all.
