It was known as the "Malta-China Bridge", or #Macbridge for short. The company was registered in Hong Kong.

Accountants for 2 politicians in Malta named it as a source of funds for their Panama companies. Both firmly deny any wrongdoing.

Here is how things now look:
The name #Macbridge (along with #17Black) first emerged from an email discovered by a source of Daphne's in 2016 - indicating to her they were "at centre of the web" of suspected corruption. She sent a WhatsApp message to her son @mcaruanagalizia with the news.

This headline never ages. Joseph Muscat’s pet rat Keith Schembri is at it again, this time in the public inquiry into Daphne’s assassination.

>> That crook Schembri was in court today, pleading that he is not a crook<<

"Your problem is that the funds which you had to receive had to come from a shady source."

Following his propaganda script, Keith Schembri’s trying to dictate to the board how they should run the public inquiry. He’s quoting Daphne now, after years of discrediting her.

Today's Malta media revelations raise serious questions about whether the authorities really left no stone unturned in their response to the murder of Daphne Caruana Galizia: here are some of them

@BorgJake @Earthling70 @Manwel_Delia There were reports of imminent arrests a year ago and of international investigators' frustration at the lack of action in February. Now we have identified individuals and money trails – why are there still no interrogations or arrests?

@BorgJake @Earthling70 @Manwel_Delia Many suggest a link between Daphne's murder and her reporting on #17Black. What does this say about the positions of @keithaschembri and @KonradMizzi, intended recipients of money from #17Black?

People really need to focus because there is a scheme underway in #Malta to bury two crimes. These crimes go all the way to Castille. Ignore the noise that @MaltaGov & @PL_Malta have become so adept at creating & focus.

Naturally these relate to @keithaschembri 1/
Besides the high profile #17Black & #Egrant, there are 2 magisterial inquiries meant to be underway. They have been underway now for just under 2 years & there is no reason why they should be taking so long other than due to interference & behind the scenes efforts @ burying 2/
Which inquiries & crimes are these?

- Kickbacks in relation to the sale of #GoldenPassports from Brian Tonna to Keith Schembri via Pilatus Bank
- Kickbacks & laundering of proceeds paid to Adrian Hillman by Schembri the disgraced & planted ex-head of Times of Malta 3/

In case anyone is wondering what to get @RosianneCutajar for Christmas, I’d recommend (a) a couple of solid dictionaries, (b) a treatise (preferably in very simple & plain language) on the role of dictionaries & (c) a reality check as a stocking filler. 1/
Here’s @RosianneCutajar. Rosianne is a tool (not a particularly sharp one) in Muscat’s toolkit that he whips out for comic relief / sympathy / distraction.

An insidious circus sideshow. This is her latest advertorial “opinion piece” in the ever obliging MaltaToday 2/
Rosianne has a past which she is somewhat ashamed of. Which is fine, we all did stupid stuff 3/
