Mrkonjić announces construction of new apartments

This plan initially sounds very, very good resolving few problems in our society at ones.

Introducing big public projects, organized and sponsored by the the Government, is proven way to pull countries out of the major economical crisis(Germany in 30-s with Auto-Bahn...). Idea should be extended to the another areas too: railways and particularly Belgrade Central Train Station - Prokop, possibly new facilities at the Airport Nikola Tesla, major roads trough the country ans so on.

It seems as well like representative and original initiative to pull out ex-communist countries from the permanent stagnation: let's have a look at the another ex-communist countries, now members of EU, and what we can possibly notice? Nothing more then stagnation, if not the decline. West is not particularly involved, neither they have a good and original ideas, how to pull this countries out of economic hardship. It always ends up with traditional austerity measures by World Bank which do affect population standard of living the most and the numbers of endless and dubious money borrowings. This formula did not bring success neither in Latin America neither in ex-communist countries till present day. Baltic States, Hungary, not to mention Romania and Bulgaria (maybe only shiny example may be Slovenia...),they all did not suffer "ex-Yu wars", but at the same time did not advanced economically much in last almost 20 years.
So every original plan by the Government is more then welcome. We should manage our economical "break trough" ourselves and nobody will help us with it if we don't have the concept, motivation and will to do it.

Back to the big housing project: architectural plan should be brought for public revue before implementation, meaning that project should reach modern quality standards: though these are "affordable apartments" they should be quality built, architects should think about the future too and build something which will be sustainable and easy to maintain(not the huge skyscrapers and mega big apartments blocks difficult or impossible for maintenance like we are having for example in New Belgrade from 70-s), but rather buildings not higher then 4-5 floors, not more then 20 apartments per building as an idea. Simply said something which looks nice, is build to last and is easy to maintain.
It should be representative project which then may be used as an example on the bigger scale and not some unseccessful social project which will turn into decay in 10-20 years.

Idea is very good, development to sustainable and quality project and process is another great gap to be achieved.
Wishing all involved greatest success!

And villages are all empty. Build roads and other infrastructure for villagers, not new apartments

I guess you found it out on google earth....

Yep indeed it is a great idea which indeed saved Germany a few times and help them and to a lesser extend France too to go easier thru the latest financial crisis.

It however requires a very strict control for obvious reasons, construction is the best way to overprice..., we had had many of this examples in switzerland where suddenly a km of motorway cost 2 times more that usual!
