At the recent GCIA Malta GC Branch extraordinary general meeting, a new branch committee was elected.

At the EGM, members unanimously agreed: that the Malta branch would remain an integral part of the GCIA; that the branch unreservedly recognises Dr Michael Refalo as the honorary president of the association; and the appointment of branch founder Lt Col Antoine Pace Bonello MBE ED as branch honorary president.

It is only right and proper that on behalf of the membership I thank the outgoing committee for its hard work and Major Stanley Clews MBE, MBIM, MIPM in particular for his steadfast dedication to the GCIA over the last 20 years.

It is the intention of the Malta branch to concentrate their efforts on achieving the constitutional “aims of the association”. First and foremost, among those aims being “to honour the people of Malta, and those who fought on their behalf, by reuniting members in a unique bond of friendship”. To ensure this end, we will be cooperating fully with the GCIA Council and all branches of the association.

Peter Robinson, Chairman. GCIA Malta GC
