Save the old Malta buses with a museum

To the Hon Prime Minister of Malta Dr.Lawrence Gonzi,

Dear Prime Minister,

While we do agree that the Maltese built buses have long outdone their service to the public transport sector in Malta, We do not agree that these important parts of Maltese heritage and Culture, (ask any tourist or a Maltese with an interest in his/her country), end up on the scrapheap.
They have delighted and angered generations of Maltese, provided a wage to generations of Maltese and why not, can and should be considered part of our identity.

We would like to see them be displayed in a museum instead where they can be restored and enjoyed by all, Maltese and tourists alike. While we agree that not all can be saved, priority must be given, absolutely, to the Maltese bodied buses. Losing this part of heritage will seriously flaw our heritage as a whole. It is on the same lines of reasoning as demolishing a fort from the Knights of Malta just because it is of no practical use anymore nowadays.

We trust that you can help us in this cause benefiting society as a whole.
