Dhurata and Sofo were the next guests of Prime Minister Edi Rama on the podcast “Flasim”.
They have an agrotourism in Tragjas, Vlora.
Amidst discussions and jokes between them and the Prime Minister, the couple said that they have a son who works abroad, in Germany, while the girls live in Albania, where they help him from time to time with the business.
He is working as a carpenter in Germany, where he lives with his wife and child. The Prime Minister ‘criticized’ him, calling for him to return to his country.
“That German coffee is like drinking chestnut juice”, said Rama.
“There are taxes, transportation, etc. Meanwhile, if you come here and expand what I have seen, which is a miracle, it will work out better for him. The calculation works out better, with a pencil. Agrotourism has no taxes, we have made the VAT 6%. Let alone that you, if you are under that, do not pay VAT.
We have a new program that we will announce soon, that will provide financial support for these activities, you with what you have done receive that support. It is a combined support of soft loans and more grand and you do it right, you have land there. What does he do there in Germany, a carpenter, he got the profession there, let him come and work here. It has become difficult in Germany for the Germans, not for us anymore”, Rama added.
