Milan 'moral capital of Italy', says Cantone

(ANSA) - Milan, October 28 - Milan has taken back the role of moral capital of Italy, the president of the national anti-corruption authority Raffaele Cantone said Wednesday. By comparison "Rome is showing that it doesn't have the antibodies it needs and which we all hope it might have", Cantone said.
    The former anti-mafia magistrate added that the Expo organisational model cannot be easily exported without the "deep institutional synergy" that characterised it. "We are trying to export it to Rome, but in Rome this is what's missing," he said.
    Cantone is overseeing anti-corruption efforts in Rome in view of the upcoming Jubilee of Mercy which opens on December 8.
    He agency was called in to help with preparations for Expo in 2014 following a corruption scandal involving contracts for the world's fair.
