The first Albanian mayor in Italy is elected, who is Sindi Manushi
An Albanian originally from Elbasan has been elected mayor in a city in Italy.
It is about the 31-year-old Sindi Manushi, who after the victory also gave an interview to the Italian media.
She will be mayor of Pieve di Cadore, in the Belluno area, Italy, in local elections held on Sunday.
The young Albanian, originally from Elbasan, was elected head of the Municipality, thus succeeding the predecessor Giuseppe Casagrande.
In her confession, she has shown that she immigrated to Italy with her family at the age of 9 and before entering the elections she worked as a lawyer.
She has also said that she never denies her Albanian origins.
Excerpt from the interview:
Question: Sindi Manushi, a historic victory for her and her list. How do you feel?
Manushi: It was a concern on Sunday when people didn't go to vote: we didn't sleep and then things went better on Monday, especially thanks to the seniors and we achieved a quorum of 48.31%.
Q: Can you tell us your story? You have been in Italy since you were 9 years old. Do you feel Italian?
Manushi: I am proud of my Albanian origin, but I have been in Italy for a long time and I feel like an Italian citizen. I have always lived in Pieve di Cadore, apart from a university break in Trento, to complete my law studies.
Q: How was the environment in Italy?
Manushi: Fillimisht e vështirë, pati një periudhë hutimi. Vijmë nga një vend shumë i ndryshëm nga Italia dhe mbi të gjitha nga një qytet industrial, Elbasani. Lëvizja nga Elbasani në Pieve ishte një tronditje dhe mund ta imagjinoni pse. E mbaj mend shumë mirë jetën e parë, për mua ishte një risi absolute.
Pyetje: Cilat ishin vështirësitë më të mëdha?
Manushi: Përshtatja me zakonet e Pieve, gjuha italiane. Edhe nese në Shqipëri transmetohen kanalet italiane. Që fëmijë kam qenë gjithmonë e apasionuar pas lajmeve dhe politikës, jam rritur edhe me Carrà-n dhe Sanremon.
Pyetje: Si u pritët fillimisht nga komuniteti?
Manushi: Ne e kemi zbritur disi mosbesimin. Banorët e Pieve janë malësorë, të tillë janë, duhet të kuptojnë kush je, çfarë bën, duhet të të kornizojnë dhe të kuptojnë. Ne e studiuam pak, pastaj gjithçka shkoi tatëpjetë. Aq sa nuk do të ndalem së falenderuari fqinjët, të cilët më ndihmuan mua dhe vëllain tim Dgersi në detyrat e shtëpisë.
Pyetje: Marrëdhëniet me prindërit?
Manushi: Kanë punuar dy-tre punë për të na mbështetur, i falënderoj. Punonim gjatë gjithë kohës, përveshnim mëngët.
Pyetje: E prisnit që një ditë të bëheshit kryetare bashkie?
Manushi: Nuk ishte në perspektivë. Unë kam qenë gjithmonë e apasionuar pas politikës, si një interes i pastër për çështjet publike. Por jo, nuk ishte në plane. Më pas para disa muajsh lindi kjo ide dhe lindi “Pieve futuro”.
Pyetje: Si do të përpiqeni që të ndryshoni Pieve?
Manushi: Unë shoh një Pieve shumë të përgjumur dhe një strukturë sociale të prekur nga pandemia. Kemi humbur disi sensin e komunitetit dhe kultivohen më shumë individualizmat, për fat të keq një prirje kombëtare. Pieve ka spikatur gjithmonë si një qendër grumbullimi, dua që ajo të bëhet sërish një.
Pyetje: A ndiheni si pioniere?
Manushi: Jo unë, por i gjithë grupi im. Nuk kemi bërë premtime të mëdha. Ne duam të jemi një urë komunikimi mes Bashkisë dhe qytetarisë. Administrata ime do të bazohet në dialog.
Pyetje: A do të vazhdoni të ushtroni profesionin e saj si juriste?
Manushi: Unë bëj të drejtën e korporatës, civile. Po, nuk do të heq dorë nga profesioni im. Me siguri do të ketë një periudhë përshtatjeje dhe do të më duhet të kuptoj në aspektin kohor se sa do të marrë për qytetarët e mi. Sigurisht që prioriteti im do të jetë tek ata.
Q: Have you ever been a victim of racism? On the eve of voting, someone tore one of the electoral posters...
Manushi: They told me I'm Albanian, I'm a woman, I'm very young. There were some unpleasant episodes, but overall I want to highlight everything that Pieve di Cadore has given me, which is a lot. "Pieve futuro" was born to unite, not to divide.
Question: Can we define Pieve di Cadore as a kind of political laboratory?
Manushi: I would say yes. I hope it can work, maybe it can be replicated on a larger scale, but in the meantime let's take the first step, which is very important.
