Malta is the only country in Europe with a complete fiber optic telephone system. Yet another string in Malta���s post-manufacturing economic bow is its preeminence in the gaming industry. Gambling is legal in Malta, the country possessing a splendid former palazzo, now a casino; it has pride of place on a peninsula jutting out into the Mediterranean. Malta gambling laws tend to be non-restrictive yet protective. Mr. Mario Galea, CEO of the Malta Lotteries and Gaming Authority believes, ���Malta is fast becoming one of the leading jurisdictions for iGaming. Our success to attract iGaming operators is due to the pragmatic approach Malta adopted towards the industry.��� He goes on, ���We have adopted a strong regulatory framework that is attractive to both the players who want and strive for safety and the operators who want to operate in a stable jurisdiction. Now the pleasures of such a place are being translated to the Internet in the form of so-called iGaming, which may be carried on in the comfort of one���s home. HYLAND
