He had been ill for a few months and died last night in the hospital where he was being treated. Mourning in the world of cooperation for the farewell to Sergio Cardia, 70, regional president of Agci Sardinia (General Association of Italian cooperatives) and national vicar vice president.

Cardia was well known in the cooperative environment, but also in the political one. He had in fact been deputy mayor and councilor in Sestu , where he lived; he had served in the PCI and then in the left, before going to the helm of the Agci, an association that takes care of protecting Sardinian cooperatives.

«I express my condolences to the family for the loss of Sergio - the words of Giovanni Loi , president of Agci Cagliari - a disappearance that fills us with pain. Sergio put great passion into what he did, he believed in cooperation as a form of development and dignity of the worker».

Pain for the disappearance of Cardia also in Confagricoltura Sardinia. "We are deeply saddened by the passing of Sergio Cardia: Agci regional president, loyal friend and one of the most valid and committed protagonists of the representation of agricultural cooperation in Sardinia - highlighted Paolo Mele , president of Confagricoltura Sardinia -. Today thousands of farmers, breeders and fishermen lose a companion in long and just battles , a man who could still give so much to this land with his extraordinary passion and infinite availability. On behalf of Confagricoltura we send our deepest condolences to the Agci and to the family members".
