Socialist MP Nuria Pina regretted this in the video Consell published with the following slogan: “One Nadal, more Valencia”Forget Foia de Castalla’s toy companies, he emphasizes, and emphasize that these are “companies that supplied the Three Wise Men with toys for all boys and girls in Spain and also abroad.”
In the video, the three Wise Men in particular are seen reading the letters and talking among themselves. Xixona nougat is mentioned and other unique elements of the Valencian Community, such as the Peñíscola castle, the Betlém of Xàtiva or the puchero, a typical Christmas dinner.
However, as Pina condemns, the toy industry is not mentioned at all, which means, according to Pina: “Consell de Mazón completely ignores Valencian industry”.
He pointed out that in this sense, he is the toy of the Valencian Community.”Spain’s first toy manufacturer with 38% of global turnover and 42% of employment“and that in 2022, including the Christmas campaign, Valencian toy stores, mainly concentrated in Foia de Castalla, “generated a turnover of more than 1,650 million euros.” According to the MP, “the majority of boys and girls in the world are in some cases Foia de Castalla” “A toy made in the past.”
