Yakov Krieger

Q. What can you tell about yourself from the past?

A. I was a man of the "Hagana" I fought in many battles, One time I became ill. In my time there wasn't technology like today.

Q. How was the agronomy?

A. The agronomy was very different; we grew oranges and grapefruits. That was our livelihood. We had places to sell the oranges like the market and get money. This is how we lived and survived.

Q. What do you want there to be for the community?

A. I think children need to help the old people more, to open new clubs and things like that for younger people.
Maybe they will open a university. I think that they need to upgrade the agronomy and to think about ideas for our city.

Q. In your opinion which technology has advanced the most?

A. The refridgeration, many years ago there were blocks of ice. There was no fridge, everyday we bought blocks of ice.

Q. Is that hard to be old in our city?

A. Yes, it's hard to be old in our city but there's a preference, everyone respects you and things like that. I go to the swimming pool on a bus and to the market but I am used to this.

Q. What do you hope for Petach-Tikva?

A. I hope for more many good years and that the technology will grow and advance for the future generation in our world.

Thank you grandpa!
