During the ceremony honoring champion Florian Marku, Edi Rama spoke about the boxer's family history. Florian Mark's parents emigrated abroad, so the boxer says Rama became one of those many immigrants who make Albania proud.
" Grandfather went to Myzeqe area after he was interned. Florian and his parents immigrated to Greece when he was young, where he started his career, then to Austria and had his breakthrough in Great Britain. There we highlight examples of success. There are Albanians who are successful even as cooks, builders or small business owners" They are more than the few Albanians who make a lot of polluting noise for our image. If there was a little sense of patriotism and kindness, even those who pucker their lips for this ceremony would have to smile because it is about honoring an athlete who has achieved everything and honors us all after unfurling the red and black flag as the winner on the screens largest of local televisions.
It is Floriani who honors this building with his presence, as was Luiza who honored it with her presence. Thus, we improve. There have been other champions, but with Luiza's celebration, they open this phase and we will do the same for those who will bring medals to Albania. Today, contrary to what was said at the moment of Luiza's triumph, there are no longer abandoned sports protagonists in Albania, there is a support and reward system, approved long ago and not when we had to reward Luiza. Last year, 14 protagonists, 7 athletes and 7 coaches benefited from the service. While this year, 44. 22 athletes and 22 coaches, which makes me believe that it is also the result of this new system of motivation and support. Luiza was supported by the Municipality of Tirana to do the training in Kenya ", said Rama.
