Malta Potatoes

New version: • Malta Derby Potatoes
Dear viewer,
Thank you for watching this video. We are happy and a little bit surprised with the attention this video is getting. Unfortunately we have made and posted a preproduction version with errors in the subtitles. The final version without subtitles can be found here: • Malta Derby Potatoes .
The finished promotion video was used to promote Maltese potatoes on business presentations and conferences where it was sometimes not possible to show the video with sound.
Again, thanks for watching!!

This guy makes me proud to be Maltese. I have a lot more education than him and can speak better English but still i'm not even half the man he is. He is not only representing himself as a proud Maltese farmer but he is also representing his country by delivering the best quality of potatoes and looks like he is doing a fantastic job.

[@annalisea5754]

It is not fair for the cruel comments. It reflects what you are and not what he truly is. What real people see in this video is a young man who is dedicated to his work and that does his very own best. Moreover, what is most important is that he is happy and satisfied with his work and is not afraid to show it. The only problem was the language barrier, but we as Maltese people could easily see that this young man had simply tried to translate each maltese word into English... so even if it is true... he has some language barriers... all of us could truly see what he was trying to convey and there was no reason to try and make fun of someone for simply showing love in his work!! Go man! Happy that you are happy! Remember, it is true that you can't speak English very well, but it is also true... that all those that claim to do... don't know how to take care of the potatoes like you do!;)

Your comment is potatoes.

[@jesuispowerrangertiburcian3199]

Your comment really was touching i almost cried and made me feel bad :'c SIKE THAT'S THE WRONG POTATO!

[@annalisea5754]

***** No, I am not. My point was that he has so much skills and is so good at what he does, why do people have to only focus on his language barrier??? We are Maltese and we have our OWN language. He might not have done well in English, but he does tough labour, he works both in the cold and rainy days of Winter and in the sunny days of Summer. He does a respectful job and does it with pride. What is wrong with that? People who ridicules innocent people are the ones who should feel ashamed!

[@annalisea5754]

ZiomASek300 All right man! I would like to see you planting your own potatoes though! You know, the ones you eat when you are eating chips/fries or whatever you call them!

[@Abominationus]

"When we are going to harvest in your mind and in your hearts you feel that you are going to export the potato and never see it again.That hurt. "

[@Aquaquake]

I like how everyone's making fun of the guy, but the fact is that he's simply vey passionate about his work, which is something 99% of us will never achieve. I mean when most of us wake up in stress on Mondays morning to go to work we hate, this guy is actually looking forward for his harvest... Say what you want, I'm really jealous of this guy.

[@gotrees4]

This is literally my favorite video on all of youtube. I try to watch it at least once a month to remind myself of the potato. Please, never remove it or my life will be over.

This young man is a very successful exporter in Malta. His childhood dreams of doing what he does today, brought him to a great dedication to his job. In fact, he is a very well known exporter by foreign importers. Starting this kind of business by yourself isn't easy guys.. and that's what he did. :)

[@tibor99991]

[@klo73]

I admire this farmer for expressing himself in a language that's not his first. He's passionate about his work, he treats his soil and the product it gives him with great respect, almost reverence. I wish we had more of him.

[@Felixxxxxxxxx]

English is an official language in Malta though. I lived there for a couple of years and his language skills are quite bad.

[@alienfrommars563]

@@Felixxxxxxxxx he probably has lived in a rural area for his whole life and hasn’t had the best education. Most people who aren’t living in the north-east of Malta speak Maltese as a first language anyways and since this guy is a farmer I don’t think that his ability to speak English affects his life in the slightest.

[@segforyou]

What a fantastic video. You may laugh at the farmers simple and humble way of expressing himself in a language he probably doesn't feel comfortable with, but he really is passionate about what he does. I wish him and his family the best. This video reminded me of how much I love my country. Without farmers you would have very little to eat, and anything you did eat would cost the earth. We are lucky to have people like him working so passionately every day.

Apart from our unique language, culture, art, history, architecture, blue sea and pleasant climate our potatoes are among the rest. Well done to the producers of the movie.

However it shows loads of openness and genuine hospitality. After all we Maltese are known to be a genuine and utterly hospitable......................

[@dahakti]

Let me assure my Maltese friends who most probably never tasted Maltese potatoes or Maltese fruit, because they buy imported fruit and veg from a supermarket, that Maltese products are of superior quality and taste better. Maltese products might cost more but they are worth every cent you pay for them. This young man is right to be proud the hard work he does and the potatoes he produces, Before correcting his not so perfect English try doing his work, you wouldn't know where to begin.

[@LaLaLaAllDayLong]

I find his English to be endearing and I admire his family’s passion.

[@tinaquilas]

What a video! Everything is so raw and heartfelt, and it's difficult not to be infected by the speaker's passion! Despite what many are saying about this young man's English, he speaks it very well, including generally grammatically correct sentences and the use of technical vocabulary. However, the subtitles are a disgrace and don't do the speaker any justice.
