I wish Yossi success, his success is the success of the ITA and the success of the ITA is success in the Israeli economy
The man comes from the fields of high-tech and in TEA there are divisions that deal with production and service (production of parts using technologies such as machining, structure, etc.) I wonder how he will treat them and appreciate their contribution as independent supporting divisions
It must be remembered that the TAA was founded so that we would not be dependent on the mercy of other countries in the world and therefore these capabilities must be preserved for difficult times, beyond that thousands of workers earn a decent living in these divisions.
It seems that a quality inspection work was done to select the right candidate for this period to leverage the company
Again, I wish success to all of us.
