According to the World Bank the US level of unemployment is only 4.7%, even Trump laughs at those figures. Then there is Kosovo (love this one) World Bank predicts in 2018 growth will be 4%. However, one asks how can it be when only just over 900,000 are left in Kosovo.

You attended a seminar? Sure :-P

How come you never have one source to back up your economical view? Investments here, investments there... yet every report speaks against your claims.

Every time I present you a source you claim it to be false. Look even your economy is mesured by the IWF and the IWF is the highest authority on this field right now.

You have a psychological disorder called cognitive bias. No matter what fact from what authority, you`ll only belive what you choose to belive... thinking about it. It could also be insanity.

sj,
You've commented four times in the last 24 hours and that is just on this one topic. It seems you're rather frustrated. Are you unemployed again. I've never seen someone write so much but, say so little. You need a holiday in the mountains to sooth your anger and hate.
(Moderate Serb, 19 July 2017 11:47)

Firstly, its not in 24 hours but in the last couple. Unlike you I am not an Albanian so I have never been unemployed.

I’ve said a lot but its not my fault that knuckleheads like you cant read or comprehend.

After 3 Yugoslavias even the Serbs have had enough. Its time for Serbs to look after themselves for too long they have carried the others.

This article only confirms what is common knowledge in that if it does not rain for a couple of months it’s the fault of the “Yugoslavs” or more commonly known as Serbs. The problem is Croats have finally discovered after decades telling themselves that it was Croatia that held up Yugoslavia that it was all pure 100% BS and thats why they blame everyone else but themselves.

I hate to burst your very small imagination but Germany and now China are investing large sums in Serbia so you can fake news all you like. It like talking to a brick wall with people like you. It will take many years for Serbia to rise from the economic ashes but its started and Serbia is the only former Yugoslav republic that can make it.

China rose from a farm-based economy to the No.1 world economy in 2017 by adopting joint ventures mate.

Ps Merkel already tried to palm off some of those refugees to Serbia, but Vucic said no.

I attended a seminar in late June where finance people from Europe and Asia were also present and I posed the same question to the Europeans about Kosovo.

It seems today GDP and growth rates take into account almost anything that moves. Kosovo’s growth rate takes into account aid provided by the EU, but what is even more astounding it takes into account remittances sent back to family members. When pressed about real growth i.e manufacturing exports the reply is ZERO or close enough to it that its not worthwhile counting.


Croatia produces very little where by the end of this year 65,000 will lose their jobs plus last year 200,000 departed Croatia looking for a better life. Montenegro lives off EU funds like Kosovo. Macedonia is much the same.

Recently moved to Serbia are Mercedes (manufacturing spare parts) Continental tyres, A. Moksel. How many have moved to Croatia or Kosovo? NOT F*****g one.

China is building transport links and building infrastructure on a massive scale while the US Piss and Wind goes around flapping its gums making only threats. First Syria now North Korea and looking like a prize fool at every turn.

ida,

It is indeed true. Look at the brand new metros in Sofia and Bucharest. Look at the highways and railways in Bulgaria and Romania. Look at the faster growth, greater investment, faster development of Bulgaria/Romania. The EU propping them up is the reason why.

In terms of population decline, this is true in the entire Balkans. Especially Serbia. Except Bulgaria has hundreds of thousands of Bessarabian Bulgarians in Ukraine and Moldova moving to Bulgaria. Same with many Armenians. Macedonians as well. They are all moving to Bulgaria for a better life. The same thing is happening in Romania with Moldovans. And in both of these countries, diaspora that left is now returning back home because of the improved conditions. The EU is also helping Bulgaria/Romania by taking many of their gypsies, perhaps this explains the decline?

These are facts that you can check. Now tell me, who is returning to Serbia? No one... and why would they, Serbia at present has nothing to offer.

I see doctors let you into computer room again. Lenny Croatia has the same information each year and only change the dates – 30% up on last year; 40% higher bla bla bla. They should stop counting people in cars as tourists that only pass through Croatia to other destinations.

I know that June was an extremely slow month for tourists in Croatia and now you have the fires who in their right mind would come to Croatia to pitch a tent? Even the B&Bs on the Dalmatian coast are suffering from a lack of guests and cancelled bookings.

You never think things through before posting. Maybe a change of medication might help.

"It's funny how the EU has drastically improved countries like Bulgaria and Romania."

If true then why is the population of those countries shrinking at a fairly rapid pace? Why are people emigrating out of those countries at a strong clip?

SJ believes Serbs are innocent, love how alternate facts are now the norm. They did no wrong, greater Serbia never was the idea. SJ likes how Germany and China are investing (fake news), yeah, and Germany will ask Serbia to take in more refugees because the "rich EU" countries want "fairness". This is how stupid some of you are. China is there to steal resources and prop up Chinese companies with "joint ventures". Wake up from the non-sense and stop pitting Slavs against each other.

It's funny how the EU has drastically improved countries like Bulgaria and Romania. They are growing rapidly, have great infrastructure and a bright future. But for whatever reason, the same cannot be said for Croatia. Why is this?

Whatever the reason, Bulgaria and Romania are now and will continue to be the leaders of the Balkans.

LOL, haven't you heard? Croatia is now protected by Saint Tudjman who sings klapa for the Croatian Virgin Mary. Since they also named Croatia's main airport after him, he's also the patron saint of air, wind, and storms. If enough Croats write letters to him in Latin script only, he'll send a Divine Wind to not just put out the fire, but send it eastward to burn everything from East Mostar to Belgrade :)

This is like when Croat President Kolinda GK said it was anti-Croat Yugoslavs who was behind the fan violence at Euro 2016 in France. It's obvious that the Yugoslavs who hate glorious Croatia have been colluding with Milowsevich for quite some time now. Also, this all happens while Vucic is in the U.S.

I can see why they would blame someone or “Yugoslavs” for all this natural catastrophic event. Lets face it tourism is Croatia’s biggest money earner and with June a total loss it looks like the second half of July is going down the tube and most people are now making final preparations where to take their holidays in August, its looking more and more like Croatia will have a failed August.

Croatia is going fast down the sink hole despite the EU propping it up. Jobs losses this year are estimated to be 65,000 alone and emigration is not receding while not one industry has relocated to Croatia. Then they look at Serbia, and believe me they are paying very close attention. China, Germany and others are investing heavily in Serbia with jobs opening up all over the country.

Is it any wonder that the “Yugoslavs” are undermining the Ustasha. Enemies to the front of them, enemies to the left. Perhaps they could ask the Bosniaks; I forgot they can’t cause they stabbed them in the back during the war.

I have an idea why don’t they pray to Stepinac, maybe he can whisper something into God’s ear to help. If that does not do any good perhaps give Medjugora a try. It did not help Cillic win but you never know.

SJ believes Serbs are innocent, love how alternate facts are now the norm. They did no wrong, greater Serbia never was the idea. SJ likes how Germany and China are investing (fake news), yeah, and Germany will ask Serbia to take in more refugees because the "rich EU" countries want "fairness". This is how stupid some of you are. China is there to steal resources and prop up Chinese companies with "joint ventures". Wake up from the non-sense and stop pitting Slavs against each other.

sj,
You've commented four times in the last 24 hours and that is just on this one topic. It seems you're rather frustrated. Are you unemployed again. I've never seen someone write so much but, say so little. You need a holiday in the mountains to sooth your anger and hate.

Yes, Serbs control the Bura winds and the rainfall and have finally decided, after 22 years, to get revenge on Croatia.
Meanwhile, where is the EU and NATO "humanitarian" help?

I see doctors let you into computer room again. Lenny Croatia has the same information each year and only change the dates – 30% up on last year; 40% higher bla bla bla. They should stop counting people in cars as tourists that only pass through Croatia to other destinations.

I know that June was an extremely slow month for tourists in Croatia and now you have the fires who in their right mind would come to Croatia to pitch a tent? Even the B&Bs on the Dalmatian coast are suffering from a lack of guests and cancelled bookings.

You never think things through before posting. Maybe a change of medication might help.

After 3 Yugoslavias even the Serbs have had enough. Its time for Serbs to look after themselves for too long they have carried the others.

This article only confirms what is common knowledge in that if it does not rain for a couple of months it’s the fault of the “Yugoslavs” or more commonly known as Serbs. The problem is Croats have finally discovered after decades telling themselves that it was Croatia that held up Yugoslavia that it was all pure 100% BS and thats why they blame everyone else but themselves.

I hate to burst your very small imagination but Germany and now China are investing large sums in Serbia so you can fake news all you like. It like talking to a brick wall with people like you. It will take many years for Serbia to rise from the economic ashes but its started and Serbia is the only former Yugoslav republic that can make it.

China rose from a farm-based economy to the No.1 world economy in 2017 by adopting joint ventures mate.

Ps Merkel already tried to palm off some of those refugees to Serbia, but Vucic said no.

Firstly, its not in 24 hours but in the last couple. Unlike you I am not an Albanian so I have never been unemployed.

I’ve said a lot but its not my fault that knuckleheads like you cant read or comprehend.

According to the World Bank the US level of unemployment is only 4.7%, even Trump laughs at those figures. Then there is Kosovo (love this one) World Bank predicts in 2018 growth will be 4%. However, one asks how can it be when only just over 900,000 are left in Kosovo.

You attended a seminar? Sure :-P

How come you never have one source to back up your economical view? Investments here, investments there... yet every report speaks against your claims.

Every time I present you a source you claim it to be false. Look even your economy is mesured by the IWF and the IWF is the highest authority on this field right now.

You have a psychological disorder called cognitive bias. No matter what fact from what authority, you`ll only belive what you choose to belive... thinking about it. It could also be insanity.

Lenard is beyond my help. He asks me to do things all the time, but to tell you the truth, I can't understand a thing he's trying to say because his Serbo-Croatian is just as badly mangled as his Croato-English.

C'mon, this is just trouble stirring. I'm sure they could have found some old bloke saying it was martians visiting the moon that caused the fires. Instead they find some old half blind bigot, and you print it... then in typical Balkans fashion, the peanut gallery is enraged...

"It's funny how the EU has drastically improved countries like Bulgaria and Romania."

If true then why is the population of those countries shrinking at a fairly rapid pace? Why are people emigrating out of those countries at a strong clip?

ida,

It is indeed true. Look at the brand new metros in Sofia and Bucharest. Look at the highways and railways in Bulgaria and Romania. Look at the faster growth, greater investment, faster development of Bulgaria/Romania. The EU propping them up is the reason why.

In terms of population decline, this is true in the entire Balkans. Especially Serbia. Except Bulgaria has hundreds of thousands of Bessarabian Bulgarians in Ukraine and Moldova moving to Bulgaria. Same with many Armenians. Macedonians as well. They are all moving to Bulgaria for a better life. The same thing is happening in Romania with Moldovans. And in both of these countries, diaspora that left is now returning back home because of the improved conditions. The EU is also helping Bulgaria/Romania by taking many of their gypsies, perhaps this explains the decline?

These are facts that you can check. Now tell me, who is returning to Serbia? No one... and why would they, Serbia at present has nothing to offer.
