(ANSA) - TURIN, MAY 27 - Flash mob of travel agencies and tour operators, this morning in front of the Piedmont Region, asking for help for "a sector - they say - that has experienced the worst consequences of the epidemic". "Aid concrete" is the slogan written on the signs displayed in Piazza Castello by demonstrators, at a safe distance and in compliance with the coronavirus measures. "The people who work in this sector have received only 600 euros of financial aid through vouchers, but how can this be thought to be self-sufficient for people who have lost five months of collection?", Ask the representatives of the category, 900 travel agencies in Piedmont and, therefore, at least 900 holders with their dependents. Not to mention the related industries, with tourist guides, accommodation facilities, bus companies. "The Piedmont Region has provided aid with funding from lost funds for many categories - they still say - and only after the stresses has it also added that of the agencies. Today, this aid has not yet been paid, so in fact from 9 March they are without a collection money, without aid and with a lot of expenses. .. ". (HANDLE).
