Internship in Malta

Malta officially the Republic of Malta, is a small and densely populated European microstate, comprising an archipelago of seven islands, making it an island nation. It is situated in Southern Europe, 93 km (58 mi) off the coast of Sicily (Italy). Year-round sunshine, bright blue skies, very few rainy days, Malta has a typical Mediterranean climate making an ideal place to study English all year round.The Maltese are famous for their hospitality and warm welcome. Everyone wants to help make your stay the most enjoyable. One of the many celebrations not to be missed is the Maltese “Festa”, a colourful event with magnificent firework displays and street pageantry, which take place in every village on every weekend throughout the summer and are where you can really see the Maltese in action!
History
Throughout much of its history, Malta has been considered a crucial strategic location due in large part its position in the Mediterranean Sea. It was held by several ancient cultures including Sicilians, Romans, Phoenicians, Byzantines, Carthaginians and others. The island is commonly associated with the Knights Hospitaller who ruled it. This, along with the historic Biblical shipwreck of St. Paul on the island, ingrained the strong Roman Catholic legacy which is still the official and most practiced religion in Malta today. The country's official languages are Maltese and English, although there are strong historical ties to the Italian language on the islands. Malta gained independence from Britain in 1964 and is currently a member of the European Union which it joined in 2004, in addition to being part of the British Commonwealth of Nations and the United Nations. Malta has become a great place to learn English in the sunshine!

Industry
Until 1800 Malta had very few industries except the cotton, tobacco and shipyards industry. The dockyard was later used by the British for military purposes. At times of war Malta's economy prospered due to its strategic location. This could be seen during the Crimean War of 1854. This benefited those who had a military role, as well as the craftsmen. In 1869 the opening of the Suez Canal benefited Malta's economy greatly, as there was a massive increase in the shipping which entered the port. Entrepôt trade saw many ships stopping at Malta's docks for refuelling, which brought great benefits to the population.

Major Resources
Presently, Malta’s major resources are limestone, a favourable geographic location and a productive labour force. Film production is a growing contributor to the Maltese economy, with several big-budget foreign films shooting in Malta each year. The country has increased the exports of many other types of services such as banking and finance. Malta is a member state of the European Union, part of its single market and part of the Eurozone. The government is investing heavily in the country's provision of education. As all education is free, Malta is currently producing a pool of qualified persons which heavily contribute to the country's growing economy.
