Political welcome words


Derrick Murphy, deputy leader Norfolk County Council, was the next speaker. Change in rural areas is inevitable, he said. He spoke his hopes for a fruitful conference, as would be expected from a politician.

He was followed by Arie Aalberts, mayor of the municipality of Dantumadeel.

Of course, Aalberts too wished everybody a good conference.
After his speech, interviewed by day chairman Marcel Bullinga, he added that the biggest rural problem must be that of housing prices having gone up way too much. On the other hand, as Derrick Murphy added, prices are much lower than in urban areas, so perhaps there will start a population move into rural areas.
