translated from Spanish: “Totally Unlucky”: Achiga criticizes John Subtle’s statements about banning meetings in pubs and bars

After the president of the Confederation of Production and Commerce (CPC), Juan Sutil, pointed out that it is necessary to prioritize economic activities such as construction over others such as pub and bars, from the Chilean Association of Gastronomy (Achiga) expressed their annoyance at the statements of the leader of the entrepreneurs.
“From our sector we fully believe that the statements of the President of the CPC are completely unfortunate, we think that there are no first and second class entrepreneurs, the gastronomic sector, together with the tourism sector, employs more than 600 thousand people, and it is as important as the construction sector, such as agriculture, such as mining,” said Achiga President Maximus Picallo , according to Emol.
Picallo also noted that “our work is just as important as that of these other sectors and we believe that if for the president of employers a single sector has to take the weight of this crisis, then it is very necessary for the State to take care of the costs of the impositions of our workers, of the possible finiquitos, that they take care of commercial patents , the contributions of our businesses and also, of course, take care of the covid credits that are already beating, and keep us still closed without being able to function.”
It should be remembered that, in conversation with Radio Duna, Sutil stated that “essential activities such as construction cannot close again and I think it is time to prioritize those things that are fundamental”, and emphasized that meetings on parties, pubs and bars should be banned
