Kien hemm min g\u0127al ftit ma tag\u0127tux puplesija meta l-mistieden tal-Film Awards instema’ jistqarr li Malta mag\u0127rufa g\u0127all-eva\u017cjoni tat-taxxa. Mill-filmati tas-serata li xxandru jidher li, hi u tisma’ din ir-rimarka, l-udjenza ta’ quddiemu baqg\u0127et siekta. Ma jistax jing\u0127ad li kien hemm da\u0127k ta’ barra minn hawn g\u0127a\u010b-\u010bajt l-ie\u0127or li lissen, tafux. \u0126afna mi\u010b-\u010bajtiet il-bi\u010b\u010ba l-kbira ta’ dawk pre\u017centi lanqas biss fehmuhom. Il-mistieden deher xi ftit sorpri\u017c u b\u0127al donnu \u0127a g\u0127alih i\u017cda fil-verit\u00e0, ma kienx ikollu g\u0127alfejn je\u0127odha daqshekk bi kbira li kieku kompla bil-lista ta’ \u0127wejje\u0121 li Malta hi mag\u0127rufa g\u0127alihom.<\/p>\n
Il-fatt li l-membri tal-udjenza ma da\u0127kux hekk kif semg\u0127uh jg\u0127id li Malta mag\u0127rufa g\u0127all-eva\u017cjoni tat-taxxa turi mhux biss li g\u0127andna nuqqas ta’ sens ta’ umori\u017cmu. Wera wkoll li, f’mo\u0127\u0127 dawk li lmentaw, ir-realt\u00e0 twassal biss g\u0127al dak li jsegwu fuq TVM u fuq il-One TV – \u017cew\u0121 ferg\u0127at tal-istess magna qarrieqa.<\/p>\n
Tistg\u0127u tibqg\u0127u \u010berti li l-kliem “Malta mag\u0127rufa g\u0127all-eva\u017cjoni tat-taxxa<\/em>” ma kinux jit\u0127allew jixxandru fuq TVM jew One TV. Il-mezzi tax-xandir uffi\u010bjali kienu biss ixandruh dan il-kliem fil-kuntest ta’ \u010ba\u0127da u kemm-il darba min ikun lissen kliem b\u0127al dawn ikunu mixlijin li qed jittradixxu lill-pajji\u017c. Kliem b\u0127al dawn jitlissmu biss minn xi \u0127add b\u0127al\u00a0 Bernard Grech “g\u0127ax dan irid li l-ekonomija tista\u0121na u jobg\u0127od lin-negozjanti” u o\u0127rajn b\u0127al David Casa u Roberta Metsola, g\u0127ax dawn “jobog\u0127du lill-pajji\u017c” u b\u0127al tradituri u g\u0127edewwa o\u0127rajn tal-poplu.<\/p>\n Lill-membri tal-udjenza tat-TVM is-Sibt li g\u0127adda, lil David Walliams ppre\u017centawh b\u0127ala parti mill-apparat uffi\u010bjali tal-istat. U dak li jing\u0127ad minn min hu \u0127a\u0121a wa\u0127da mal-apparat uffi\u010bjali tal-istat ma jista’ qatt ikun tad-da\u0127k.<\/p>\n X’aktarx li David Walliams ma nteba\u0127x li min f’dan il-pajji\u017c jo\u0127ro\u0121 anki bl-i\u010bken \u010bajta biex jiddie\u0127ak bir-re\u0121im mhux ser jarawh \u0127elu u jintlaqa’ b’reazzjoni li tixba\u0127 dik tal-politburo \u010aini\u017c. M’g\u0127andix dubju li David Walliams \u017cgur ma kienx jg\u0127addi l-istess rimarka fuq l-istazzjon televi\u017civ nazzjonali \u010aini\u017c. U li a\u010b\u010betta l-istedina biex ji\u0121i hawn Malta g\u0127ax, taf int, il-problema f’Malta hi li l-kbarat mhumiex mag\u0127rufin daqs kemm jippretendu li huma.<\/p>\n Dawn huma ftit mill-\u0127wejje\u0121 li tg\u0127allimna mir-reazzjoni bierda tal-pubbliku g\u0127all-kliem li g\u0127adda Walliams:<\/p>\n L-ewwel, bosta huma dawk il-Maltin li ma jafux li pajji\u017cna huwa mag\u0127ruf madwar id-dinja g\u0127all-eva\u017cjoni tat-taxxa. U hawn qed inkun \u0127anin. “L-eva\u017cjoni tat-taxxa” hawn mhix riferenza g\u0127al dawk li jonqsu li jiddikjaraw d\u0127ul ta’ flus kontanti li jkunu da\u0127\u0127lu minn xi sahra jew minn xi xog\u0127lijiet \u017cg\u0127ar li jkunu wettqu fid-djar. Hi riferenza g\u0127al dawk li g\u0127andhom jag\u0127tu ammonti kbar f’taxxa f’pajji\u017chom u li qed nilqg\u0127uhom hawn biex jevitaw li j\u0127allsu dak li hu dovut minnhom. Dan ilna nag\u0127mluh g\u0127al dawn l-a\u0127\u0127ar 30 sena.<\/p>\n It-tieni, meta nuru li ma nafux nid\u0127ku bina nfusna meta nag\u0127mluha tal-galantomi u ng\u0127inu fl-eva\u017cjoni tat-taxxa, inkunu qed nuru wkoll li jew tassew ma nifhmu xejn dwar l-ekonomija Maltija jew inkella li a\u0127na ipokriti tal-prima klassi. Ninqalg\u0127u ferm g\u0127al dawn l-affarijiet i\u017cda xorta rriduha tal-ver\u0121ni, meta \u010bertament m’a\u0127niex.<\/p>\n It-tielet, Malta mag\u0127rufa g\u0127al \u0127afna affarijiet o\u0127rajn li forsi kienu wkoll f’mo\u0127\u0127 Walliams i\u017cda kien prudenti wisq biex joqg\u0127od isemmihom. A\u0127na mag\u0127rufin g\u0127all-qtil ta’ \u0121urnalista li kienet kixfet il-korruzzjoni, u jidher li qed nag\u0127mlu minn kollox biex inkunu mag\u0127rufin ukoll b\u0127ala pajji\u017c li ma jippermettix lill-Pulizija tieg\u0127u t\u0127arrek fil-qorti eks prim ministru sabiex issir \u0121ustizzja min\u0127abba korruzzjoni \u010bara u tonda. Na\u0127seb li nhar is-Sibt li g\u0127adda l-membri tal-udjenza kienu jog\u0127xew bid-da\u0127k li kieku \u010b\u010bajta b’dan il-mod.<\/p>\n Ir-raba’, bosta minn dawk li jwettqu xog\u0127ol ta’ kwalit\u00e0 f’dan il-pajji\u017c u li, meta jikkritikaw medjokritajiet b\u0127al dak li se\u0127\u0127 nhar is-Sibt li g\u0127adda, ji\u0121u mg\u0127ajra li g\u0127andhom imne\u0127irhom imxammar u li huma elitisti,\u00a0 qed jibqg\u0127u b’fommhom sieket. Nhar is-Sibt li g\u0127adda kienet okka\u017cjoni tad-deheb g\u0127al dawk li jipprodu\u010bu films tajbin li kieku ng\u0127ataw l-appo\u0121\u0121\u00a0 li jing\u0127ataw minn gvernijiet ta’ kollegi f’pajji\u017ci \u017cg\u0127ar o\u0127ra b\u0127all-Islanda u l-Estonja.<\/p>\n Il-punt tieg\u0127i huwa dan. Jidher li m’g\u0127andniex bi\u017c\u017cejjed sens intellettwali, emozzjonali u kulturali sabiex napprezzaw l-umori\u017cmu wara \u010b-\u010bajta li g\u0127amel Walliams. Bis-sa\u0127\u0127a ta’ din i\u010b-\u010bajta, inkixfet il-medjokrit\u00e0 ta’ dawk li jie\u0127du lilhom infushom wisq aktar bis-serjet\u00e0 milli jmisshom. Iva, f’dan pajji\u017cna je\u017cistu \u017cew\u0121 Maltiet u r-ra\u0121uni wara din il-firda mhix – kif jimma\u0121inaw li hi s-so\u010bjalisti – wa\u0127da ekonomika. Mhix dwar min g\u0127andu f’idejh il-mezzi ta’ produzzjoni. Hi dwar min m’g\u0127andux il-\u0127ila emozzjonali u intellettwali li jara aktar ‘il bog\u0127od mid-dinja \u010bkejkna li jimir\u0127u fiha Jason Micallef u s\u0127abu. F’dan l-univers \u010bkejken u mag\u0127luq tag\u0127na, l-kbarat mhumiex dawk li g\u0127andhom, i\u017cda dawk li m’g\u0127andhomx.<\/p>\n Il-qasma hi wa\u0127da kulturali u prova \u0127ajja tal-e\u017cistenza tag\u0127ha kienet is-serata tas-Sibt li g\u0127adda. In-nies li jag\u0127mlu l-films – dawk li l-\u0127ila artistika tag\u0127hom tirrikonoxxi r-realtajiet so\u010bjali tag\u0127na, li jlaqqtu r-ri\u017corsi kif jistg\u0127u biex ipin\u0121u stampa dwar \u0127ajjitna, li jirrakkuntaw l-istorja ta’ niesna u dwar kif ng\u0127ixu – ma kinux fis-sala dakinhar. Li kieku kienu pre\u017centi, i\u010b-\u010bajt kienu jifhmuh u japprezzawh u kienu jid\u0127ku, u x’aktarx kienu jo\u0127or\u0121u b’\u010bajt li kien iqanqalna aktar, li jwe\u0121\u0121a’ aktar u li jikxfilna l-ipokreziji aktar minn dak li, b’\u0127ila kbira, ji\u010b\u010bajta dwar pajji\u017cu i\u017cda li ma jistax jifhem li a\u0127na \u017cg\u0127ar wisq biex nid\u0127ku bina nfusna.<\/p>\n Nhar is-Sibt f’dik is-sala kien hemm min ifaqqa’ subg\u0127ajh u dlonk jing\u0127ata mijiet ta’ eluf – hawn min jg\u0127id miljuni – ta’ ewro mill-kaxxa ta’ Malta biex jonfoqhom kif jidhirlu u dan bla ma jag\u0127ti rendikont. G\u0127ax jafu li jistg\u0127u ji\u0121u, jaqg\u0127u u jqumu bla xkiel ta’ xejn. I\u010b-\u010bajt la jifhmuh u lanqas japprezzawh, i\u017cda \u010bertament jafu meta g\u0127andhom i\u010bap\u010bpu. I\u010bap\u010bpu lill-ministri tal-gvern u lil s\u0127abhom tal-qalba u lill-propaganda statali li taparsi tmexxi ‘l quddiem xog\u0127lijiet ta’ arti. Jikkoperaw fil-gidba tal-istorja uffi\u010bjali u jibqg\u0127u lura milli jistaqsu dwar kwistjonijiet li tiffa\u010bja s-so\u010bjet\u00e0 u taparsi jiskantaw meta jkun hemm xi \u0127add li bil-prudenza kollha jsemmi l-eva\u017cjoni tat-taxxa, jew xi \u0127a\u0121a ag\u0127ar minn hekk.<\/p>\n L-artisti nixfin mill-flus, bl-ideat g\u0127al films li juru, li jistaqsu, li jisfidaw u li jbiddlu s-so\u010bjet\u00e0 li ng\u0127ixu fiha, qed jitwaqqg\u0127u g\u0127a\u017c-\u017cuffjett u jitlaqqmu b\u0127ala l-establishment, b\u0127ala elitisti, b\u0127ala dawk ta’ mne\u0127irhom imxammar. Dawn mhux talli ma jirb\u0127ux premji u rikonoxximenti, i\u017cda ji\u0121u m\u010ba\u0127\u0127da mir-ri\u017corsi li je\u017cistu li jg\u0127inuhom iwettqu xog\u0127olhom.
