Els dirigents del World Mobile Congress han enviat una newsletter informant sobre la vaga dels transports públics de Barcelona durant els dies del congrés. La carta informa que els dirigents del MWC i les autoritats responsables han estat realitzant diverses reunions per informar-se. Segons diuen, asseguren que les negociacions van a bon terme per abolir la vaga. És més, el MWC assegura que faran tot el possible perquè tots els assistents puguin arribar a la fira.
La carta:
Today the GSMA released the following statement on the planned Barcelona public transport strike:
The metro and bus workers from TMB, the main public transport operator in the metropolitan area of Barcelona, have announced plans to strike during Mobile World Congress which will be held 27th February through 1st March 2012.
The GSMA has senior executives in Barcelona and they have been meeting regularly with government officials from the City of Barcelona, Catalonia Regional Government, Spanish Ministry of Industry, the Fira and the various police authorities since the strike was first announced. The GSMA has advised the government authorities that they should do everything to avert the strike and we have been assured that negotiations are ongoing in order to try and resolve the issues.
In the event the parties do not reach agreement, comprehensive contingency plans are in place to ensure that all participants of the Mobile World Congress have unfettered access to and from the Fira during all days of the event. We will announce the details of those contingency plans as necessary should the strike take place. The GSMA remains confident that the issues will be resolved and that there will be little, if any, impact to the Mobile World Congress.
Further, the Barcelona government has offered the GSMA its strong assurances that Mobile World Congress attendees will not be affected and all participants will be able to arrive and depart the event safely and without disruption.
Sincerely,
Sincerely,
John Hoffman
GSMA Mobile World Congress
Des de Bits Catalans veiem que el dret a la vaga és un dret constitucional, però si s’escullen les dates on Barcelona és l’aparador de tot el món com a bandera de la tecnologia és altament perjudicial per la seva imatge. Aquest sector, en alt creixement pot desenvolupar Barcelona com a centre de negoci i crear feina per a milers de persones.
