Linda Rama: Between Family, Work and Albania’s Future An Italian-Albanian 5 million EUR investment at the Porto Romano
Energetic Park will enable Albania to produce biodiesel for the first
time.
This is a vegetable based diesel fuel, a modern technology for protecting the environment. During the inauguration ceremony, the Albanian PM Sali Berisha, did not avoid political comments and accusations that some environmental organizations are being used politically.
“I invite the environmental NGOs to be more active in environmental issues, development and preservation. I guarantee that I feel as one of them. I also want to say to anti-globalists that there is no future for them. Your later alliance, which common citizens are considering as the “alliance of rubbish”, is a desperate and hopeless organization. You do not promote a healthy environment, regardless the positions in which you find yourself. All you do is looking for votes in the rubbish, and you will never find anything there, because we will do anything possible that this country becomes cleaner and healthier”, Berisha declared.
During the inauguration of the biodiesel implant, Prime Minister Berisha guaranteed that the government will continue to help the business so that Albania will increase foreign and domestic businesses, regardless what the opposition’s program for burdening them with further taxes.
“Those who think that the country can be developed by taxing the richer, remind the Albanians of a time that they will never accept”, Berisha declared.
Earlier the day, Berisha met the Italian Ambassador, Saba D’Elia, with whom he inaugurated the electrical substation “Tirana 2” in Kashar. This station is a 25 million EUR investment of the Italian government, and connects the power network between Greece, Elbasan, Tirana and Montenegro.
Tirana 2 has a higher technology that will optimize the electrical power parameters that the Albanian capital needs. According to Berisha, the government has invested 600 million EUR in energy, since 2005, valuing electrical power as leading the Albanian economic development.
“With these investments we have enabled Albania to turn from the country of power generators, which polluted the air and created noise for the citizens, into a country with a power system that supports the biggest economic increase in the country. Electrical power and developments are the same. We will make everything possible for the most liberal standards of the electrical power market”, Berisha declared.
Prime Minister Berisha guaranteed that investments in electrical power will be a priority for the government, not only for covering the country’s needs, but also for turning the country into an important exporter in the region.
