Albanian hotel owners ask: Where have Kosovars been lost?

If Durres spent years ago with business names of the cities of Kosovo or Macedonia to attract patriotic vacationers of these areas, in 2018 it seems this tactic is not worth it. The Kosovo Albanians and Macedonia have fled the Adriatic coast. Ibrahim Osmani is from Kosovo, and in Durres he runs a hotel. “ka [...]

The Kosovo Albanians and Macedonia have fled the Adriatic coast. Ibrahim Osmani is from Kosovo, and in Durres he runs a hotel.

There's a drop, very little. I don't remember to be honest. I've been working 18 years, but that's how I can't remember”, says Ibrahim Osmani.
While Lirim Bajrami is from Tetovo and has opened a restaurant in Durres.

This year there are foreign vacationers, Polish, Hungarian, Bosnians, but Durres, meaning Durres Beach, has very little. The decline is 30-40% of Kosovo's armies -- Macedonia means Albanians. Compared to years it is very low in tourism, as for Kosovars as for foreign nationals”, said

But what are the reasons, according to Kosovo and Macedonian businessmen, that their countrymen no longer rest in Durres? But journalist Valdete Osmani does not blame the weather.

Kosovo's “Want, that craving which has recently faded to visit Albania, I think is precisely due to the lack of conditions, lack of good treatment of them, and the lack of Durres purity, pouring sewage into the sea. The absence of a mosquito disinfectant, which leaves you alone to eat and a meal. Most of whom we talk to in Pristina when we have dilemmas where to go. Durres, Shengjini, Velipoja remains the places where they are going to be embarrassed, having small children or not having economic conditions to spend more vacations”, Valdete Osmani said.

We remember that days earlier the message of the owner of an Albanian hotel to a Kosovar had awakened great debate.

He had called Kosovar a pig bush after he had asked for reservations, but then he had chosen the next hotel.
