GENERAL DETAILS - Malta
CAPITAL CITY OF Malta: Valletta
LANGUAGE OF Malta: English
CURRENCY OF Malta: Maltese lira (MTL)
CLIMATE OF Malta: Mediterranean with mild, rainy winters and hot, dry summers
ECONOMY OVERVIEW OF Malta: Major resources are limestone, a favorable geographic location, and a productive labor force. Malta produces only about 20% of its food needs, has limited fresh water supplies, and has no domestic energy sources. The economy is dependent on foreign trade, manufacturing (especially electronics and textiles), and tourism. Malta is privatizing state-controlled firms and liberalizing markets in order to prepare for membership in the European Union. The island remains divided politically, however, over the question of joining the EU. Continued sluggishness in the global economy is holding back exports, tourism, and overall growth.
POPULATION OF Malta: 396,851 (July 2004 est.)
RELIGION OF Malta: Roman Catholic 98%

Great Britain formally acquired possession of Malta in 1814. The island staunchly supported the UK through both World Wars and remained in the Commonwealth when it became independent in 1964. A decade later Malta became a republic. Since about the mid-1980s, the island has transformed itself into a freight transshipment point, a financial center, and a tourist destination. Malta became an EU member in May of 2004.
