Life in Kosovo discusses the boards of public enterprises
26 January 2012 This Thursday, Life in Kosovo broadcasts a debate on the performance of the boards of public enterprises.
Why has the mandate for members of public enterprises been extended? How much have these boards been politicized and are appointments made based on political affiliations? What is happening with the water company \"Radoniqi\" in Gjakova? Who is in dispute with the new director and why?
To discuss these issues, Muhamet Hajrrullahu has invited:
Gani Koci – Deputy Minister of Economic Development;
Lutfi Zharku – former Minister of Trade and Industry;
Lorik Bajrami – from the NGO Çohu and
Shkamb Qavdarbasha – from the NGO INDEP.
During the programme, BIRN will broadcast a report by journalist Edona Musa who addresses the issue of why some of the former board members of “Radoniqi” did not accept the new director.
BIRN also broadcasts a report that shows how many children are going for medical treatment through the funds collected by the Gala Evening of December 1, 2011, organised by the Mother Teresa Society and Life in Kosovo.
