Summary

COI synopsis: ‘Carrousel Britanico’ flies to Malta, where new commercial developments are being carried out at a fast pace. To encourage merchant shipping, new docks have been constructed and great modern ships queue up to benefit from Maltese enterprise. New power stations and factories are being built and so, too, are new houses for the Maltese. For the tourists, attracted by the beauty and climate of this Mediterranean island, there are new luxury hotels.
