In Malta, Chetcuti appeared on Pjazza Tlieta (1994), a popular television program. That day, he became the first professional Maltese homosexual to come out in the Maltese media. 1997 saw Chetcuti's Il-Ktieb Roza, Dnub, Dizordni u Delitt? emerge as the first book on homosexuality in the Maltese language. On 9 January 2000, he called on Malta's gay men and lesbians to set up a local political movement, arguing it was "high time for Maltese gay men and lesbians to ... bring discrimination based on sexual orientation to an end." The Malta Independent carried his call under the banner "Gay political action urged by Maltese emigrant". The 2009 paper version of Queer Mediterranean Memories: penetrating the secret history and silence of gay and lesbian disguise in the Maltese archipelago was the first book on homosexuality in Malta in the English language.
In 2007, aided and abetted by Malta's Missionary Society of St Paul, the Maltese Community Council of Victoria banned Chetcuti from giving a public talk on homosexuality ("Ten Years On: The Pink Book: A Sin, Disorder and Crime? and the birth of the gay movement in Malta") at its Parkville Centre, describing the talk as offensive to the religious sensibilities of the Maltese.
Chetcuti is listed in Michael J Schiavone's Dictionary of Maltese Biographies, PIN, Malta (2009), Maurice Cauchi's A Who's Who of Maltese Background: Persons of Australia and New Zealand, Victoria (2008), Maurice Cauchi's Maltese Achievers in Australia, Melbourne (2006), Michael Hurley's A Guide to Gay and Lesbian Writing in Australia, St Leonards NSW (1996), Sneja Gunew's A Bibliography of Australian Multicultural Writers, Geelong (1992), Frances Milne's and David Penman's Community Relations Register - Australians for Racial Equality (1986) and the Australian Institute of Multicultural Affairs' National Research Directory: Multiculturalism and Ethnic Affairs in Australia, Melbourne (1986).
