Tarcisio
Celestino, new President (2016-2019) of the International Tunnelling and
Underground Space Association.
“This
is a big congress, as we all know at
this moment the biggest congress in ninety history and of course it could
expect that beign in the United States,
but on the other hand we did not see this in 1996 the congress also hear it was
not so significant as it is now so one good
thing about this many good things about this congress but one of them is
that being so big it how loud the number of technical sessions also to be large
number and I cannot think of any important subjet in tunneling
that wich has not been covered in at least one technical session.
I‘d say
the major our major role is to increase the talon market it has been increasing
but on the other hand we still see that there is a lot of demand for underground works things wich are still
constructed on surface wich should not and this is what we should influence
most, in other words the activity of why
go underground use of underground space if we can improve that I´m very sure
that all the other activities will come also with their improvements it will be
a consequence good role that I had in
this sense is to influence the member nations to start because we cannot just
go to a constant that directly to the government it´s much easier if we do that
throuh the member nations their role of member nations to approach government
and in each country and influence and show how underground solutions are much
better in some situations.
I´m
very sure that the benefits of this congress will take longer to take some time
to digest and have a good sense and that the results will do very good and will
not feel them next month, it will something wich for the next 12 months we´re
coming up“.
