That's a big project we are doing together with the Indian government and as far as I know, this project has been very successful so far."

"We met with the CM, that was basically the reason for my trip. Then we met with the Director of the Investment Agency here. We had a long discussion with him. We also met other people around. So, I will come back to Andhra very soon because I want to see Visakhapatnam also and Kadapa district, where some German project is going on. It's a state to discover."

"I wanted to come to Andhra to meet the local Government because I feel this is a very important state. It's a powerhouse of India, and it's important to know what's going on in Andhra. I'm very impressed with what I've seen and what I've felt so far. I think it's an extremely exciting state, full of dynamics, ideas and great plans. We had a wonderful discussion with the CM. I think it was high time that I came. My visit is important and when I get back to Delhi to report on what I have seen and experienced in Andhra Pradesh," he added.
