Why were 4 million euros given for Kanye West's concert? - Rama: We cannot miss the opportunity to promote Albania
Prime Minister Edi Rama reacted to the decision to finance Kanye West's concert with 4 million euros, arguing that the investment aims to promote Albania, boost tourism and generate income for the economy.
"4 MILLION EUROS at the last minute, in order not to embarrass Albania, in the eyes of nearly 25 thousand foreigners from 80 countries who have already bought tickets for Kanye West in time;
not to miss a fantastic opportunity to promote Albania as a tourist destination, for one of the largest communities in the world, music lovers; to stimulate the economy, which, for example, according to UEFA, had an income of 160 million euros from the Conference League Final, while from this concert - in the conditions artificially made difficult by the heartless - we calculate no less than 100 million euros in income. It is enough to see the explosion of reservations on booking.com for Friday, Saturday and Sunday, to create an idea of the direct economic benefit for families, businesses and the municipal and state coffers, from the increase in consumption, without even counting the benefit spread over time.
Now the crows and ravens of social media channels have rushed in with a frenzy of voices, making perverse calculations of unscrupulous manipulators, pretending to mourn the plight of the people and even cancer patients, who will be left without medicine as a result of the "private concert", as they devilishly call it.
But woe to this people and woe to every sick person, if they were to remain in the clutches of these digital swindlers, supported in this case by the hands of Albania's enemies and ill-wishers, who relentlessly release poison into social channels through tens of thousands of fake profiles, taking advantage of the thirst for power and the emptiness of the usurpers of the civic protest.
I remind everyone that just a few days ago, we allocated 15 million euros plus for cancer patients' medicines alone and 5 million for medical equipment; we doubled support for people with disabilities and supported their caregivers; we doubled support for children with special needs; we doubled funding for Start-ups; we doubled the sovereign guarantee for the 'Double Your Business' program; we financed a whole extra package for urban and rural development, defense, and all of this and more was still in the Normative Act of late June, where the icing on the cake was undoubtedly the pensioner bonus.
Now what do the crows and ravens who diabolically privatized the flamingos' civic protest want, forcing them to migrate away from the boulevard?
Very simple:
They want to stop and turn Albania back! With the violence of arbitrariness, insults, slander, accusations and threats against anyone who thinks differently from them!
"Forget it! Albania does not stop and there is no chance of turning back."
