JUM IL-MUNXAR 2009

Il-Kunsill Lokali tal-Munxar fi tmiem il-ġimgħa fakkar Jum il-Munxar. F'din l-okkażjoni organizza attività biex jiċċelebra dan il-jum bil-parteċipazzjoni ta' diversi organizazzjonijiet lokali. Għal din iċ-ċelebrazzjoni kienu preżenti l-Ministru għal Għawdex l-Onor Giovanna Debono u s-Segretarju Parlamentari għall-Konsultazzjoni Pubblika u Informazzjoni, l-Onor Chris Said.

F'din is-serata ħadu sehem il-korijiet tal-Munxar flimkien ma' għadd ta' żgħażagħ mil-lokal.  Il-mistiedna speċjali kienu l-Chorus Urbanus u l-kantanti żgħar Francesca u Michaela li rrapreżentaw lil Malta fil- Junior Eurovision Song Contest .  Waħda minn dawn il-kantanti hija propju mill-Munxar.  Fl-istess okkażjoni ngħata wkoll il-premju “Gieħ il-Munxar” mis-Sindku Joseph Sultana lil Emanuel Spiteri.

L-Onor Giovanna Debono fl-indirizz tagħha fissret kif jum il-lokalità jpoġġi l-ħidma tal-Kunsilli Lokali u għaqdiet oħrajn fil-perspettiva. Din il-ħidma tirrifletti f'ġid għal-lokalitajiet rispettivi iżda fuq kollox tissarraf ukoll f'ġid għas-soċjetà Għawdxija. Hija faħħret l-inizjattiva meħuda mill-Kunsill Lokali tal-Munxar filwaqt li fakkret kif il-Ministeru għal Għawdex minn dejjem kien ta' sostenn għall-Kunsilli Lokali Għawdxin kollha sa mill-bidu tat-twaqqif tagħhom.

Fil-messaġġ tiegħu, l-Onor Chris Said faħħar l-ezempju tal-Kunsill tal-Munxar li qed jaħdem id f'id mal-għaqdiet lokali, minn dawk sportivi sa dawk reliġjużi. Chris Said semma wkoll il-fatt li l-Kunsill Lokali tal-Munxar hu ferm attiv biex iġib fondi addizzjonali mill-allokazzjoni li tingħatalu biex ikun jista' jahdem aktar; infatti bbenefika mill-iskema għall-attivitajiet tal-Kunsilli Lokali biex tella' “Eku mill-Munxar” b' suċċess fl-2009 u se jieħu iktar fondi għall-2010 biex itella' attività simili. Il-Kunsill bbenefika wkoll minn €40,000 biex isiru xogħlijiet fix-Xlendi mill-iskema għal lokalitajiet bi bżonnijiet partikulari, u ħa wkoll €10,000 euro biex jinstalla pannelli foto-voltajici fi playing field ġdida li qed tinbena. Dan kollu juri l-impenn tal-Kunsill biex ikompli jsaħħaħ il-lokalità tiegħu, stqarr Chris Said.
