Minister Andis Salla has found a way to turn his attention away from agriculture, by organizing meetings in the most luxurious restaurants in the country, with antipasti, meat and wine. Although the entire sector is suffering from successive government scandals, initially with the IPARD program and currently with the support of "friends" with national schemes, Salla has thought of organizing events.
Instead of the money being directly given to farmers, to be supported and financed, the agricultural points in the districts themselves, by direct order of the head of the ministry, hold tenders on how to please the farmers. This time, with the big wave in Tirana with intimate videos, the Agricultural Technology Transfer Center in Lushnje decided to train 50 farmers (females).
According to documents available to Vox News, this center will hold a tender worth up to 10 million old lekë with the object of "training women farmers." The requirements are that the restaurants have facilities, initially requiring several conference rooms with microphones, files and transportation.
The training will take place in Berat, in the Roshnik area, and in Gjirokastra, while from the specifications and requirements, it is not known who the winner or the place where the "training" will take place in Roshnik, although the tender will be held on October 5th.
Other requirements are that the bar or place has coffee and water, mini cakes twice a day. But, the main focus of the entire training will be the lunch for the female farmers.
The Ministry of Agriculture is looking for a very generous lunch for female farmers. The tender specifications require lunch for 50 people, in Berat, Roshnik. The first course should have various antipasti, mix salad, Caesar salad, mix bruschetta. The second course should have 500 grams of goat meat and garnish. The third course is pie in a bag and baked potatoes. Then dessert and fruit. The lunch will have soft drinks, wine or beer.
Meanwhile, the same tender specifies what these farmers in Gjirokastra will consume. Again, lunch is required for 50 people, with various antipasti on the first course. The second course should have lamb or goat meat, again 500 grams and garnish. The third course should have qifqi with rice and baked potatoes. Later, dessert and fruit as well as unlimited drinks.
"The training will be one day in the Berat area and one day in the Gjirokastra area ," the tender states.
