The government continues to support the energy costs of micro-companies, the Minister of Technology and Industry said on Saturday at the international regional exhibition and fair in Felsőraj.

László Palkovics explained: small and micro enterprises were also in focus in the previous period, and this will continue to be the case in the future. The government's measures will have a positive effect on their operations, micro-companies will "remain within the overhead reduction" and will be able to profit from this.

The aim of the measure is to ensure that small businesses can operate and that their business model is not damaged by the energy crisis, he added.

Currently, the price of electricity and gas in Hungary is the lowest in Europe, he added.

He also mentioned that in the next four years, in addition to energy and industrial development, the development of the food industry will play a prominent role. In terms of proportions, most resources go to this area.

Bálint Nagy, the State Secretary of the Ministry of Construction and Investment, spoke about how, thanks to the Hungarian village program and the subsidies, development started in the small villages.

This is indicated by the fact that the population of the small villages is increasing, that the young people have a vision for the future - emphasized the state secretary, who is also the region's Fidesz parliamentary representative.

He highlighted the role of regional cooperation, for which, according to him, the Felsőrajki International, Regional Exhibition and Fair, Cultural and Gastronomic Army Show, which was organized for the tenth time in the village of Zala, is an excellent opportunity.

Parliamentary representative László Vigh (Fidesz) recalled: initially they wanted to provide an opportunity for primary producers and cultural groups to meet. The event has grown over the past decade, with 25 producers and artisans coming to the jubilee meeting with their products.
