When describing why Malta was so attractive to Italian organised crime, the study concluded, “The lax controls, the lack of interest in investigating and the close political ties in the country are the reasons why Malta became the mafia’s El Dorado”

4. Let me tell you about this one time when I worked for a small gaming company on technical issues (not financial) and years after I left the owner got arrested in connection with the ’Ndrangheta betting network. For those who do not know the Ndrangheta is the Calabrian mafia.

   So here is the story… Having exceptional hearing I caught the owner whispering to my manager “I don’t trust him” in reference to me. I took that personally so I left as soon as I had another job lined up. Years later, after I got news that the owner got arrested in Italy and that his company had its gaming license revoked in Malta, I now think he must have thought I was some kind of infiltrator. LOL. He should have known I was not acting and that I really was as dumb and clueless as I looked.

5. In other news, sugar tastes sweet because of its high sugar content.

6. Mafia government. Ties with organized crime, dictators and criminals runs deep.
