Larnaca
On behalf of the other members of the Cabinet who are here today, in recognition of your long-standing contribution to Cypriot society, I would like to thank you warmly for the invitation.
I would like to speak from personal experience, as I was blessed and I believe it was one of the most correct decisions of my parents to encourage me to become a Cub Scout and then an Air Scout 260th Air Scout Corps in Geroskipou.
And there are so many positive experiences, I remember that through scouting we learned discipline, service, what it means to volunteer, we young boys then learned how to prepare for the military and the best experiences from my childhood were my participation in scout camps.
Therefore, to the amount -already decided by the previous government in the budget - of 50 thousand euros to help your work, I announce today that we will add another 25 thousand euros and I will be very happy to meet with you to talk specifically about the issue of camps. Today there are many more campsites being used by our scouts, so we need to upgrade them even more.
