00:00Thank you very much, Mr. Dimos. One of the big issues and issues that we have raised, ladies and gentlemen, in Greece, from many shows, is what happens with the student housing. Isn't it?
00:12That is, on the one hand, families who are having a hard time finding a house to rent for their children so that they can go to university, those who do not live in the headquarters of the university school.
00:26On the other hand, there is the huge suffering of the student housing. I think that the student housing that exists in Greece is not the best.
00:39These are the worst expressions. We saw what happened to me as a salesperson in Thessaloniki. We saw what has happened to the student housing of the painter. And not only.
00:48Here, of course, in Greece, we have a taboo. Wherever the private sector is involved, it is bad. It is very bad.
00:54Well, there could be a combination. What you see is Greece. Let's make a double window and show what is happening in Cyprus.
01:02It is something that you may have seen on social media or watched on TV. Something good is obviously happening in Cyprus.
01:10This is a new student housing. Of course, the socially sensitive groups will not take over the state in the outskirts and will be left alone.
01:18Look, there are excellent rooms and offices. And with a very low salary for the children who go to university. Very low salary.
01:33And the systems that you will hear are, as you say, in the village of Spiros of Niassos, all inclusive. Everything is included.
01:39And the water, and the lights, and the Wi-Fi, and the phones, and everything.
01:44The comparison is unfortunate with what is happening in Greece.
01:48Mr. Fedonas, Mayor of Paphos, will host us in a student housing and will give us the prices.
01:56A student housing, good morning to you, we are glad to have you, that resembles a good hotel.
02:01We saw the images, Mr. Mayor, and we were shocked in Greece.
02:05Because you know Greece, you know the student housing, there is no comparison. Go ahead.
02:11Good morning and good Sunday.
02:14You are right, I was once a student there and indeed the student housing was not in a good state.
02:21I understand that even now they continue to be in a bad state.
02:25Here, the creation of this student housing was done by the private sector?
02:31Was it done with the participation of the municipality, with the participation of the state? How did it happen?
02:35Here, the student housing you see is 100% public student housing, that is, it belongs to the municipality of Paphos.
02:43Ah, we clarify that here we do not have a private project, as it happens in England, in New Orleans.
02:48Here it is public, it belongs to the municipality of Paphos, and the municipality of Paphos is the owner of this excellent student housing.
02:57The municipality of Paphos has bought the land plot, 5,000 square meters, and has auctioned it to this property,
03:04which was previously private and we bought it with public money, that is, with the money of the municipality, our municipality.
03:11And we have auctioned a student housing with 203 rooms and it has cost us a total of 15 million euros.
03:18And you will receive money as a municipality, because there is the student housing.
03:24The municipality of Paphos will receive exactly from the 100 rooms that we rent in social housing,
03:31and the social housing, to be clear, is 350 euros and includes water, internet, electricity and public cleanliness.
03:41And for the rest?
03:43And for the rest it is 550 euros, it is for families that do not have financial support.
03:50Mr. Dimakos, in Greece, in Greece, beyond social, in Greece, in order for a parent to be able to put his son or daughter,
03:58to be able to pay for everything, including food, 500 euros, as you said, 550 euros,
04:04there is no such thing, and everything is included.
04:09Wi-Fi, electricity, water, cleanliness, security, everything, everything.
04:14There is 24-hour security of the space, the class here, the air-conditioning, everything,
04:21a washbasin, a washbasin for the children to wash their clothes.
04:24Everything, everything, the only expenses of the child will be what he will give to eat or drink.
04:32And free access to a modern gym of 300 square meters.
04:37That is, the student with this money has access to all these services.
04:42We see nice images that you have sent us, but let me put you in a hurry, Mr. Mayor,
04:46to host us in this particular room where you are very close.
04:50It's like you're on the beach there.
04:52Yes, it's like the mayor is on vacation.
04:54This house costs 1,500 euros.
04:56All the rooms here are 27 square meters and all the rooms have in addition a small balcony
05:03with two chairs and a table for each student.
05:07Let's see the indoor space, the space where the child will study.
05:11As you can see, here opposite, here is the office of each student.
05:18Here is the student's office.
05:21Next to it is the student's bedroom.
05:24Below is a place for shoes and a storage space.
05:29Here is the student's bed.
05:31Ah, the student has a kitchen to cook, I see.
05:34Here is a double bed for each student.
05:37Next to it, as you will see, is a closet for each student.
05:43And here is the kitchen, the child's refrigerator, as you will see.
05:50A full hotel room with a kitchen to cook.
05:56Anyone who does not want to eat outside.
05:58It costs 350 euros.
06:01Here is the restaurant.
06:03Here is the oven to cook.
06:05Kitchen, refrigerator inside.
06:07And here is the bathroom for each student.
06:12A modern bathroom.
06:14Now I will put you in the effort to go out again,
06:17because the signal breaks a little and the sound starts to distort.
06:21Go to the window to have a better signal.
06:24There, well done.
06:26I repeat, ladies and gentlemen.
06:28Here the money was put by the municipality.
06:33At some point, the money will be deducted.
06:36The prices are excellent.
06:39And you see where a student who studies in Cyprus can stay.
06:43The comparison with the Greek data is,
06:46either in terms of rent, or in terms of renting houses and rooms,
06:50in terms of price, the comparison is unfortunate.
06:54He makes his life easier, he does not deal with anything else.
06:57The child only deals with reading, he does not deal with anything else.
07:00And he has security, and he has a gym, and he has security.
07:04And if he wants to fry an egg, to eat, to sleep, to rest, to read.
07:08He is a complete waitress.
07:11Mr. Mayor, well done. You have done an excellent job.
07:15Is there a response? Are people coming to stay? Students?
07:19Of the 203 rooms that have been rented at this moment,
07:23151 rooms have already been rented,
07:29while now...
07:34Did the signal break?
07:35It broke.
07:36It broke.
07:37I think we heard most of it. Thank you very much, Mr. Mayor.
07:40We had a hard time with the message. The signal broke.
07:43I repeat.
07:45It is an important initiative that should be done in Greece.
07:48That's the idea.
07:49Why can't it be implemented in Greece?
07:51Doesn't the legal framework exist?
07:53Create a legal framework.
07:54We are not saying that we are coming, that we are entrepreneurs.
07:57What happens in London?
