"

The spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena recalled that "nobody talked about the ZAL of Cartagena until our Municipal Group mobilized Cartagena civil society in the School of Business Sciences of the UPCT in 2015 and took the initiative to the Regional Assembly; we did it not only with words or points in electoral programs, but with facts, with amendments in the regional budgets of 2016 and 2017 to update the feasibility studies and for the transfer of the Deposit Franco. "

"Not only this, our national deputy, Miguel Garaulet, interceded with SEPES so that the price of land in Los Camachos was attractive to businessmen and he got it," says Padín, who despite everything says that "it does not matter who gets the medal, here the important thing is that the ZAL is a reality, thousands of direct and indirect jobs are generated, economic and business development is strengthened, urban rationalization and cost improvement, and Cartagena is, as it should be, the logistics capital of this Community for its Port and for being the main industrial hub of the Region ".

For the local spokesperson for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, "the feasibility study concluded what Citizens already knew in 2015 when the project was rescued, that the Cartagena ZAL is viable, that there are hundreds of companies interested in making it a reality, that neither the Comarca nor the Region of Murcia can afford not to develop it in Los Camachos and that there are thousands of jobs at stake and the generation of wealth and progress, and it did so despite the fact that the then Minister of Development, Francisco Bernabé, despised the project and deny the interest of the Cartagena business fabric ".

Manuel Padín has assured that "we have come here with a lot of effort and work, and today we have all achieved an essential step and that we begin to lay the first stone, so from Citizens we will continue to demand that the deadlines be shortened."
