Having breakfast at the corner of San Gwann & Il-Merkanti (St John and Merchant St) and see this hilarious, contemporary statue. Does anyone know the story behind it? https://i.imgur.com/6qzmmqt.jpg

I really wish that they labelled this “statue of the disgruntled tourist” it would have been way better
roflmao this is completely new and a perfect picture of us Maltese – always grumbling and doing nothing about it.
The real question is, where is the original statue that field that space? Hopefully not adoring the private garden of some politician yet again.
Tourist? The physiognomy looks quite Maltese.
