The Concession of the Port of Vlora, granted to Samir Manen, has the status of the tragic investor and as such along with the amenities the law offers for strategic investments also has the obligations to be fulfilled.

The aim of the strategic investment law is "attracting strategic, domestic and foreign investment, in the sectors of the economy, identified by this law as strategic sectors, through the establishment of special favourable, facilitating or accelerating administrative procedures for supporting and services to investors".

To protect the public interest in this part, the law sets certain criteria, which in the case of the tourism field are a minimum investment of 5m euros and at least 80 employed, to benefit from the assisted procedure and secondly minimum investment over 50m euros and at least 100 employed to benefit from the particular procedure.

Samir Manes' project in the Port of Vlora, under the investment plan co-signed with the Albanian Government, meets these criteria. But if legally the project is considered okay, morally it is dubious.

Why? First, Samir Mane benefits 165 thousand metres/square sq m of construction in a central area of Vlora with only 1 euro concession and receives this for the next 35 years. Second, it is also cynicism and mockery that is made to the public, where in thick lines Samir Manes' business plan says "give me 165 thousand square meters/square construction state property that I will employ 100 people".

Even the figure of 100 employees itself remains doubtful, as like the financial analysis part of the construction of the new port, even the chapter for investment is very evasive.

"Since the construction of the residential resort will be divided into three phases with a time arc of 2 years it has been estimated that this investment will employ a workforce as much as the annual seasonal workers in a 2-year time hack, which will be dealt directly with the entire construction operation of the residential resort". It's said in the investment plan.

What does that mean? At best, the 100 workers will be employed for the establishment of Samir Manes' villas for a two-year period, which coincides with the period of completion of the works. Later, Samir Mane will cash in from the sale of luxury built apartments, while workers will turn out unemployed. This means that the concession loses the public interest, according to the spirit of strategic investor law.

"In addition to directly employing the Navy, at least 100 periodic employees, this investment will also have an indirect impact at the employment level. Furthermore, this investment envisions employing about 100 persons, who will manage the project at each stage, inspecting the works closely, accounting for financial accounts on behalf of the investor and taking a consultation position in its entirety", the investment plan further says.

Even here the formulation is evasive. As in the first paragraph, even in the second it is about periodic employees and in no case of the investment plan it is said how many persons will be employed at the end of the project. But given that most of the project are luxury residences erected on public property that Samir Mane will eventually sell hardly until after the seventh year of the concession, when the completion of the works is anticipated, the number of employees will exceed 100 people.

Doubts are compounded even stronger by the dry description made in the employment chapter of the investment plan. There are only three short paragraphs, where unlike chapters that talk about residences and two luxury hotels, it does not go into detail. There first, there is no accurate figure of persons to be employed, with what salaries, nor an exact employment timeframe.

The other problem is that with the closure of the project, i.e. completion of all works, including here the port, residences and hotels, the concession may fall against the definitions of the law for strategic investments. Why? Because at the end of the investment the direct concession company will own the two hotels and operate a yacht port, which with a number of employees in total may not be more than 100, as required by law.

But even if the law is enforced, if not fictitiously, the Port of Vlora concession will leave behind that bitter taste of a dubious affair and the question of whether the exchange is worth 165 thousand square meters/square construction public property with 100 new jobs?
