“ Infrastructure is essential. Mobility is an indispensable competitive advantage for tourism and I am very happy when roads, railways and ports are built. The bridge over the Strait is a great work and for 50 years the Italians have been fooled with announcements: now it is being done with us in government and for the South, for tourism, but also for the environment, it is fundamental".

So in an interview with the Truth the Minister of Tourism, Daniela Santanché . «The Mediterranean is an immense opportunity - he continues - and Naples must become the hub of the Mediterranean . It should be considered that tourism is first of all employment. I made a table with all the categories and it turns out that 50,000 jobs need to be covered immediately. I am working with the Minister of Labor for a large de-contribution for those who work in this sector. We need to make it convenient to work in and for tourism ».

To achieve the goal, according to the minister, "deseasonalization" is "essential - she explains - We need to focus on events , sporting events , festivals and cultural appointments in the villages that are our wealth. We need to relaunch the spas ».

With regard to the issue of training and the shortage of qualified personnel « with Minister Bernini we are working to qualify higher education , it is not possible that the best university for tourism is in Switzerland. We have to work on technical and professional institutes. Tourism is above all an exchange, an encounter, we must rebuild Italian pride. There is a great desire for Italy in the world».
