Alpár Gyopáros: the villages are our future
Villages are our future, they have great potential, because they can provide a quality of life and have a community that cannot be experienced in big cities – said Alpár Gyopáros, the Prime Minister’s Commissioner responsible for the development of modern settlements, on Saturday in Sopron, by iCon-intelligent economy and Századvég at the afternoon round table discussion of the jointly organized economic policy conference.
Alpár Gyopáros reminded: in the Hungarian village program, HUF 10 billion was committed to this year’s tenders as early as 2023, to which another HUF 10 billion will be added this year. In addition, the state side road development program and the village chocolate will continue.
The government commissioner said that as part of the program, 4,000 kilometers of side roads have been renovated in the last four years, but at the same time another 6,000 to 10,000 kilometers of sections are still in bad condition.
He emphasized: the village is currently the only type of settlement in this country, where the population is not decreasing, but increasing. As an example, he mentioned that the most children live in the villages until the age of eight, and the fewest in Budapest.
