Several myths for Albanian village, hysteria after the girl's tears in the Parliament

A girl returned from Italy with a modest business project in the cattletore has shaken public opinion through her speech to Parliament deputies about the state of the Albanian village. It was a true story, mostly surprising those who never go to the village. Those who go to the village and live there are not surprised.

I'm the one who went to the village and shared many weekends of the year there. But not like a aunt. If you want to draw an emotional picture of the village, it's exactly what that girl said. Albanian villages, in the majority, have no roads, no water, no normal electricity grids, and above all, no more people. The rhetoric of the return of attention from the village contains several myths, which we need to take down and seriously deal with the possibility of the Albanian village keeping people living normally and where we should direct the development of the village. The village of I came from, there were 170 houses in the years, about 70 houses in dictatorship and 30 in democracy. The school had 150 students in Monarchi, 40 in dictatorship and 4 in democracy. When there were more inhabitants - during Monarchia - no electricity or roads - but three - story houses, cobbled streets, grand gates, and better - dressed people. There are now roads, and electric lights, and water, but there are fewer inhabitants and 4-5 students, on almost the threshold of illiteracy. So the problem isn't so pathetic that we can tear in the Assembly, but it's economic, social and, above all, strategic.

The population of the village is not a drama, but it is a need from powerlessness to survive new conditions for society's development. The village in the 1930 ' s has not been poor, since the homes of the 1930 ' s are better than what we do today. But the village has been vital, as its deep orientation to livestock and agriculture, survival with these businesses, not merely residents, but capable people in the village. Today, the village problem is not that there are few people. Maybe there's less to live with. The problem with the village is that there are the most disabled people. Anyone else who has felt slightly more capable and competent has fled either to immigration or to Tirana.

So the return of that girl to the village, after an education in Italy, is impressive, but it's not the solution. It applies to impress you as a rare survival case and personal will, but not as a solution. The solution is when the village is seen as a real job and business market, not as survival. All those who work and live in the village simply survive but do not. Neither those with many livestock nor those who plant tomatoes nor those who do almost anything. The same is true at the end of the year. The Albanian village needs to be restructured clearly towards its constituent, agricultural, livestock, or tourist priorities. This alone can restore serious projects, with capable people who should view the village as a market. The first precondition of this is infrastructure, and here that girl is right. Albanian villages must be connected to roads, water and light to be normal people. But that doesn't save them. After that, the government must lead such business policies to make businesses in the village difficult. In Maliq, in Mypé, in Vurg, Cakran, or Vlora Mufti, it should invest heavily in intensive agriculture, in a modern irrigation and boniking system management scheme, and in the dinar support for agriculture.

In Kurvellesh, Zagor, Dungle, Skrapar, Colone, Marthas, Booksdez, and other mountain provinces, should be invested in livestock, strengthening investments in veterinarians, zootechnicals, and turning them into my own business. In specific areas of natural beauty, it must be invested in mountain tourism, halting any industrial investment that destroys their future. Kurvel Nivica does not develop the hydropower plant that wants to build there, but dies because it takes away the only chance it has for development. Zagorine can also kill the attempt to build hydropower plants. Valbon's dying. Europe's only wild river, officially known as such, Vjosa, is facing its official death from hydro-power licenses. Albanian government officials say some economic benefits when it was marked for this massacre, but no one can tell me what a wild and hydro-powered Vjosa is worth, for the future of that valley, from the most tourist in the Balkans. No one has a price for this and no one can ever get. So it should never be allowed. There can be little tourism, little industry, either tourism or industry. The important thing is to bring down the myth that the village is romantic, that it has bio tomatoes, good taste meat, and some people who are eager to go. That's not true. The Albanian village no longer exists. What you call villages are a few people left without mountain access, who survive in almost natural condition, who are vulnerable and disabled, and that if you bring water, light and roads, without leading urban development and regulations, it makes them worse. Albanian legislation itself is still discriminatory for the village. The word comes, a 1,000 - foot [1,000 m] yard house in the village, that is, a 1974 decision when the village has been cooperative. No one's even remembered to take this stupid rule off, and get in a fight without end with all the villagers. Property has been messed up by the superlocation of 7501 with the heritage and order of the courts. Hypothets have committed criminal acts, self-registering entire villages incorrectly, mixing house spots on the map, and extracting the mortgage of a house in the village is worse than registering a palace without permission in Tirana. The Albanian state still has a racist spirit towards the village, and a lack of attention to the inconvenience, as has communism.

But above all, the Albanian state has expelled the Albanian village from being part of the Albanian state. The Albanian village almost has no connection with the state. He's almost taxing for nothing, no service, no work, no trade report with the state. It is in natural, pre-state state and sporadic investments are either emotional and nostalgic, or lobbies, but not clear policies

What we have to do is connect the Albanian village with the Albanian state and turn the Albanian village into a market for agriculture, Belgian and tourism. Only then will we turn the skilled people into important businessmen and turn them into some of our national property. The paralysed land of the Albanian village is useless, unmanaged, unappreciated and thus depreciated. Politics must impose its unity, in business co-operatives, not only through taxation, but above all, through opportunities to unite it. I deeply respect that girl's tears in the Assembly and especially her decision to survive in the village, but we will save the village and the girl when our children, those who are educated abroad and the capable part of society, have on their business plans and the possibility of investing in the village. Then we put the village inside the Albanian state and made it part of its market. Now there's just a few forgotten people and abandoned houses, which are very surprising, that we cry for them. They want to be like us, in town, with water, light and work. They stay where they go. They are not there to live but to survive!
