Various issues pertaining to entrepreneurship, but also pending development projects in Limassol, at both city and district level, were brought before the President of the Democratic Rally (DISY) Averof Neofytou during his recent visit to the Limassol Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI).

Mr. Neofytou, who was accompanied by the three newly elected MPs of DISY in Limassol and other associates, met with members of the LCCI Executive Committee, headed by President Andreas Tsouloftas, and discussed the current economic situation in the country, including the effects of the pandemic and the many problems that the business community has faced as a result.

Mr. Tsouloftas referred, among other things, to the findings of the Limassol Chamber Business Barometer, which, not for the first time, highlight the assessment of companies that cooperation on the part of government departments leaves much to be desired, and called for necessary reforms to move towards a less bureaucratic and a more efficient public sector.

The LCCI President also raised before Mr. Neofytou issues related to the development needs of Limassol, listing a number of road and other projects that have remained stagnant and asked for them to proceed. He further noted that although Limassol has made great leaps forward in recent years, but these have been almost exclusively the result of initiatives and the ingenuity of the private sector and there is justifiably anticipation for all necessary public works as well.
