The answer is the teaching profession. Read the information
from the link posted below.
Malta Union of Teachers
Founded in 1919, the MUT is the only trade union in Malta that has survived since the pre-Second World War. The MUT originated from developments following riots on 7 June 1919. In an effort to calm the situation, the government reviewed the salaries of all categories of government employees except teachers. This resulted in protests by teachers, who gathered together and founded the MUT with just over 600 members. Today it represents all grades of teachers in the public and private sectors, from kindergarten to university, and claims a density of over 90% in all teaching grades in Malta. Over the years, the MUT has developed its dual role of trade union and professional educational organisation.
Over the years, the MUT has successfully negotiated several agreements on salaries and conditions of work. However, its greatest achievement was its role in the enactment of the Education Act 1988, whereby teaching was given official recognition as a profession.

MUT. Maltese Union of Teachers. Started with just 600 members and has grown ever since. You know it was the most bombed place in the universe in the 2nd world war? They are one hell of a lot of human in those people! What a great question! Anyrate I'm getting a cyclone warning so I probably have to turn the computer off the t.v. is giving me instructions of what to do in the event of a cyclone. I live in nth Queensland, Australia - we get cyclones like people in America get hurricanes. I live right on the beach so I need to heed the instructions. Funny hey, I realised today that the wind kept turning from a N.E. to a S.E. and the humidity has been amazing - should have guessed that something was brewing! (This has nothing to do with your question! sorry). Now I've forgotten which website I found that information from. Sorry! Safe journey and wish me well with the oncoming cyclone! All the best - Joybelle!
