The professional organizers of events are in complete despair since 95% of weddings and baptisms have been canceled not only due to restrictive measures but also due to the thousands of cases of coronavirus.
As the president of the Pancyprian Association of Professional Events (PASEPEK), Konstantinos Mosaikos, stated in "F", "not only the measures recently imposed by the Government, but also the rapid growth of coronavirus cases, completely closed us down". "Which couple will get married and everyone will be seated", he wondered, adding that now with the situation one of the participants, bride, groom, best man, godmother, will be positive for the virus. "So all scheduled events have been canceled so we are open - closed."
Mr. Mosaikos referred to the case of a marriage that has now been postponed for the third time, with the result that the couple is on the verge of a nervous breakdown "for this reason and we are forced to do the psychologists as well", he added.
According to him, we have asked the Ministries of Finance and Labor for financial support of industry professionals and staff. The president of PASEPEK added that everything is in the psychology of the world. "Who would want to go to a big rally for fear of catching the virus?" We ask that they close us and support us financially ". He also stressed that all scheduled events, with some exceptions, have been canceled until March. With five thousand cases a day, who will give an invitation, he wondered. Finally, he added that the 24-hour rapid test, which must be submitted from today (yesterday) to all those who will attend such events, is the last thing that concerns the entrepreneurs in the industry. The main problem they face is the ban on dancing, since there is no wedding without a party.
It is noted that today a delegation of the Association will have a meeting with the president of DISY to raise the problems he faces due to a pandemic and the illegal premises.
