Salerno Mayor Vincenzo De Luca political criticisms

Overview

Salerno Mayor Vincenzo De Luca has engaged in various public criticisms regarding local governance and social issues in the Campania region.

Initially, De Luca addressed environmental misconduct in Salerno’s historic center, specifically targeting illegal waste dumping. He used footage of recurring incidents to suggest that more severe disciplinary measures, which he referred to as the “Singapore method,” might be necessary to restore respect for public goods, though he noted such corporal punishments are not applicable in the West.

Subsequently, De Luca expanded his criticisms to the Campania regional administration. He contested the regional government’s claims of credit regarding new Stadler trains for the Circumvesuviana line, asserting that the procurement and station redevelopment were results of his previous management. Furthermore, he attacked a regional €8 million training program for the unemployed, labeling it an “opaque” and “fraudulent program of fake professional training” and alleging that the Ministry of Labour withdrew support due to irregularities.
