Lawyer Spartak Ngjela, in an interview for “Off the Record” with Andrea Dangli, on A2 CNN, explained why the Albanian governments, according to him, have been unable to develop the country.
“Governments do not have a development program, they are below the level of communist governments. It was a dictatorship, but it had a development program. Opened factories, plants, employment… Today there is no development. Development is a program, it is a system, but there is no industry here. There is only agriculture. They do not know how to cooperate with Albanian capital. The state does not control the investments, but the capital. The state helps, creates capital unions, but the state cannot do it because they are not professionals. There is no western country where the prime minister does not have either a famous lawyer or a famous economist. We are not yet at the western stage of development”, declared lawyer Ngjela.
“Without a profession, there is no scheme for economic development. It is done by a prime minister who has an opinion, has written books, we do not have such. They have no profession to run the state. A doctor or a painter cannot be prime minister. The prime minister must be either a great economist or a great lawyer”, added lawyer Ngjela.
