Rafuna: Economic growth must be classified to leave clues

Rafuna has said they have demanded from institutions that the state budget be directed more in public investments. While, it also points to the form of investments by the diaspora as well.

The economic growth this year is expected to be about 4 percent, which is an economic growth that leaves no trace in development, leaves no trace of unemployment reduction”.

Kosovo's “in order to leave evidence of economic growth must be biiffy and not single-sided, and that's why we from the beginning when the Budget Law was approved we've asked the country's institutions to have more public investment, to have an environmental reform to have more private investments, and to see how we can do more with our diaspora in the sense of projects which directly affect the country's economic development, and not just to allow our diaspora to buy housing or<1).

Better to buy it, but it'd better be like those tools that come to us from the diaspora, to direct them to economic development”, Rafuna said.

OEK's chairman has said that remittances are not properly destined, since after buying they remain untapped.

“A part of the real estate that is bought by our diaspora that we consider investment, they stay closed. In fact, it's an expense, because when they come once a year, they're forced to maintain it, to invest in it, so it's not investment”.

The “Investation would be for those who have been released and receive a benefit from renting and so on. True, we call them foreign investments, but here's the question of whether the entire investment should really be called”, Rafuna stressed. / EO
