Moviment Graffitti has spoken out over the way Comino is being “exploited year-round”.
The NGO posted a video on social media of a kiosk playing loud music in Comino.
“It is the end of winter, and Comino is being enjoyed by walkers and people seeking peace and quiet. However, in total disregard of the island’s Natura 2000 status and with disrespect to the general public, the kiosk operators in Comino are still intent on blaring loud music at the Blue Lagoon, even at this time of year.”
“Moviment Graffitti reiterates that it is unacceptable that Comino is exploited year-round by the commercial demands of kiosk operators who are out to make a profit off public land. In response to our collective protests in previous years, Tourism Minister Clayton Bartolo had stated that kiosks were no longer allowed to amplify music. We demand that enforcement is in place to ensure this, now and throughout the year.”
