January 24, 2019 - Assessment of post-World War II monuments in Southeastern Europe to develop a new regional tourism product- WWII-MONUMENTSEE is the latest project to be conducted by the NGO EXPEDITIO Centre for Sustainable Spatial Development from Kotor. By this project, Expeditio continues more than two decades of fighting to save and improve cultural heritage and make it a driver of future development, both in Montenegro and regionally.
January 24, 2019 - The "Kind Hearted" campaign started with the presentation of the activities of the parents association of children with disabilities, which is part of the NGO European Home Tivat, at Knightsbridge School International Montenegro (KSI Montenegro) in Tivat. The campaign dedicated to children with disabilities in this city is a project of fourteen-year-old Ksenia Viller, a student of the 11th class of KSI Montenegro.
The university center will not be a hotel, as the municipality of Berane requested it, but the home for pupils and students, the Ministry of Education announced. From the Municipality Berane, they announced that students are moving into in the premises of the University Center, although the court case has not yet been completed and they accused the Ministry of Education of transforming the building into a private company of the Social Democrats (SD).
"We did not allow the University Center, as a capital project, in which the Government of Montenegro, and not the municipality, invested 3.5 million euros, to be transformed into a hotel, as the Berane Municipality requested, and whose management would use it according to its needs, but a home for pupils and students," said the Ministry.
That is why, as stated, it was reconstructed, it will be of the utmost benefit to the citizens of Berane, pupils and students who continue their education in the territory of this municipality.
"Let's keep in mind that this facility’s availability of over 200 places open opportunities for opening new study programs in Berane, which the government is entirely devoted to," the statement said.
It is emphasized that the question of the registration of this facility is obvious.
"The Real Estate Directorate has, upon resolution of the Property Administration's request, registered the property right on the Montenegrin state's property. The object, again following the law, is managed by the Student House of Pupils and Students, whose founder is the Government of Montenegro. It is emphasized that the Ministry of Finance as a second-instance authority confirmed all the above. This facility is now available to our pupils and students."
It is stated that even more strange is the fact that the municipality of Berane is concerned that the Government of Montenegro wants to make Berane a university center, which has no modern accommodation capacities for pupils and students, and which the University Center certainly provides.
"In the end, we appreciate the insubstantial processing of this topic through public announcements, which is reduced to political qualifications, by offering no single real argument. It is trivial in relation to the youth who will use this facility but also the competent state authorities who have already decided when it comes to this issue," the statement said.

President of the Kuci Development Fund "Marko Miljanov", Dr. Radomir Prelević says he believes that this year, with the help of the city, a landscaping site will be repaired in Gornja Vrbica. The capital has allocated the money, the choice of the contractor is to be made.
They expect the road Bioče-Kosor will be asphalted, as well as the extension of the road from Oraohova and Korita in the length of ten kilometers.
In the Plan of the Fund by 2020, the expansion of the road Korita-Rikavac-Širokar-Mokra-Kržanja is planned, with the help of the Army of Montenegro, upon the approval of the MNE Government.
"We believe that by restoring this route, we will open opportunities for various types of tourism, hiking, cycling, nature lovers from Podgorica would be able to access Kucke mountains in the shortest time possible. It could also be easy to make a ski resort" says Prelevic.
In the plan for 2020 is also the asphalting of the seven-kilometers road Stravce-Brskut, and with the Capital and the Army of Montenegro, there is a contract for the extension of the road Kosor-Peut. Works on extending the road Ubli-Raći-Momca are ongoing, part of the road from Ubli to the village of Raći is expanded, and it is necessary to asphalt the same.
Local roads were damaged during the construction of the water supply network in the villages of Ubli, Kosor, Liješta, Medun, Dučići and Sjenica, and asphalting is required.
When it comes to plumbing, a survey is planned on Kuči 3, Gornjepolje and Korita Kučka works due to the water-supply in Kržanje, Momca, Orahova, Bezjova, Korita, according to a study commissioned by the Fund, and the Ministry of Agriculture commissioned research.
The electro-supply network is also planned to be reconstructed, as there are almost 300 electricity outages during the year, so the Fund hopes the Capital will engage in making Elektroprivreda fully reconstruct the electro-supply network.
Prelevic says that the project of reconstructing the fortress "Medun City" is interesting, and after archaeological and other research, it was supposed to be brought to its original state when life took place here, and the projection is for it to become a luxurious hotel.
"We want the Capital to be included in the project, that is to include the designer Paradores de Turismo from Spain, which was engaged by the Government for the reconstruction projects of Old Bar, Žabljak Crnojevića, Spanjola fortress in Herceg Novi, Gorazde Fortress ...
Only a few people in Montenegro know that the stone town of Medun is probably the oldest settlement in Montenegro, far older than Duklja," Prelevic said.
The Museum of "Marko Miljanov" is also planned for renovation, according to the JU Museums and Galleries. The Fund is also interested in the reconstruction of the Monument to the Victims of Fascism in Orljev, which is the property of the Capital. "We have arranged the landscaping around the monument, and it cost dozens of thousands of euros. It is essential that all stone elements and marble slabs with the names of the victims are replaced. We hope that the Capital will engage “Zelenilo” to carry out the landscape works in this space, and also adequate lighting should be installed," said Prelevic. By the activities of the Fund, with the help of the Capital and the Army of MNE in the area of Kuce, they paved about 40 kilometers, brought water to the plateau, which is estimated to be an investment worth approximately six million euros.
The Development Fund Kuci was established in 2012 and the “push button” was that the water supply was brought from Bioče to the plateau of Ubli. "Then we had a couple of meetings and a few of us who had our own jobs, and we gathered to give the money to pay for that. Someone had suggested creating an association of people who would take concrete moves, without having to ask anyone else but to solve the problems. That is how it was, we created the Fund, and the most important points of our Statute are that there is no debate about politics, religion and also that any of us is teaching others how to do business. I think these are the rules that have maintained the Fund as such, and of course, the concrete results. Initially, there were about 150 members of the Fund, and now the largest financial contribution is given by about twenty businessmen from Kuci, who live and work in Podgorica.
There are attempts from other neighboring villages to copy us, but for now, hopefully, we are successfully solving the problems. We do neither interfere in other villages’ affairs nor matters at the level of local communities," says Prelevic.
Prelevic claims that the first novel in Montenegro was written by Stevan Dučić "Or Kuč", although unpublished, and not Risto Ratković, in 1933, "Nevidbog".
We respect the work of Risto Ratkovic, but I think Stevan wrote the first novel in Montenegro, the work "Or Kuč", which has 700 pages. And we will print this novel; we want to realize the project of the collected works by Stevan Dučić, six books, worth 30,000 euros. We continue with the publishing of capital works from the past and the cultural heritage of Kuci, and the "Heritage" library has so far published 20 titles," Prelevic says.
The Fund also implemented the project of all the works by Marko Milovan Popovic, in seven books, issued late last year.
The unbelievable interpreter of the folk songs Ksenija Cicvarić is originally from Kuci, with her maid surname Bracović and in the Fund they want to point to this fact as well.
"We are helping Mico Miranovic publish a book about the life of Ksenija Cicvarić, whose maid surname was Bracovic from Kosor, Kuci. In the future, an annual concert or reunions could be organized to remind us of what Ksenija left for Podgorica, Montenegro, and beyond, to the regional musical heritage," Prelevic said.

Nearly 400,000 euros will be necessary to invest to make ten facilities in the next two years for the accessibility of disabled persons. According to the Action Plan of the Ministry of Sustainable Development and Tourism (MORT), published at the last session of the Government in 2018, the architectural barriers will be removed in the building of the president, the Government, the administrative building of the state authorities in Vektra building, the Transport Department, the Ministry of Culture, the old building of the Government, the state authority building in Mojkovac and the Customs Administration building. Most money, as stated in the document, should be invested in adjusting the president's building, about 100,000 euros, as well as removing architectonical barriers in the Customs Administration Building - about 70,000. Adaptations in the buildings owned by the state, in which the work is performed by the legislative, judicial and executive authorities, relate, inter alia, to the installation of ramps, the installation of lifts, the installation of tactile bands, the provision of parking and the adaptation of the toilets for persons with disabilities.
The initial estimated cost of the Ministry led by Pavle Radulović, amounted to nearly half a million euros (468,000).
Up to 100,000 savings (362,740) occurred after a meeting with NGOs dealing with the protection of rights of persons with disabilities.
They suggested that existing ramps should not be removed as well as that those that do not have a good slope and that are not in accordance with the regulations should not be reconstructed.
At the NGO's proposal, out of 10 facilities planned for the adaptation plan, the building of the president, the old building of the Government, the Customs Administration and the state authority building in Mojkovac have been prioritized.
The production of technical documentation for the adaptation of these buildings, as quoted by MORT, will cost 46,000 euros, and the funds will be provided from the capital budget for this year.
Funding costs of EUR 251,170 will be provided only one year later. The Directorate for Public Works is in charge of the realization.
Approximately 65,000 euros for removing architectural barriers in the remaining six buildings will be secured by the 2019 and 2020 Budget Management Directorate.
Radulovic said that the estimates of necessary funding for the adaptation of objects in public use are provisional, and that final amounts will be known only after the technical documentation has been completed.
Patron of the Human Rights and Freedom Šućko Baković repeatedly warned that disabled persons are one of the most vulnerable categories of society.
Full enjoyment of human rights and the prevention or elimination of discrimination against persons with disabilities are enshrined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as well as Protocol No. 12 to the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms from the year 2000.

Solidarity and pressure on the institutions of the system will contribute to a better position of journalists in Montenegro, according to the newspaper agency MINA and non-governmental organizations "35mm" and NOMEN on the occasion of January 23rd - Journalist's day.
35mm and NOMEN said that on the occasion of the Journalist’s day from different addresses, there would be greetings that will repeat the known information that the position of the journalist is not at the level which the function as a guardian of democracy deserves.
They argue that the announcements will neither remedy the journalist's economic problems, nor diminish their fear for family and family safety, will not motivate them to continue, even more heartbreakingly and professionally, to fight for the rights of others, but that they will have an impact on the solidarity and pressure on the institutions of the system.
We call on employees in the media to join forces with their owners to fight for journalist's rights and joint activities to press the institutions of the system to start: resolve cases of journalist attacks, punish those who violate laws regulating the media, pay regular earnings of employees, and get caught up in solving all the other problems of this industry," said the statement.
35mm and NOMEN, with the project "Dealing with Ethics and Fake News," which is sponsored by the European Union Delegation in Montenegro within the Media Professionalization Program, contributed to the strengthening of the stable media community. It is pointed out that through the website media.me, not only employees in the media, but also citizens, students, pupils, can learn about the news, the Journalist Code, ethical reporting and false information, and ask explanations by experts.
This way, in front of MINA information agency, NGO "35mm" and NOMEN, we call all the media and employees in them to continue to strengthen the media community, because we can only, united, fight for human rights, both for us and others, "it is said in the statement.

Today it’s easy to advertise a restaurant with all kinds of available marketing tools i.e., social networks, internet platforms, billboards, and more. But I think the most qualitative publicity is when a local tells you where to get a tasty and proper meal at reasonable prices.
In Tivat, depending on your tastes, of course, there are a lot of restaurants offering various national and foreign cuisines.
Therefore, for example, if you are a fan of sushi and Asian cuisine the restaurant “Mitsu” in Porto Montenegro is the right place for you (https://www.facebook.com/mitsurestaurant/ .
Just opposite “Mitsu”, there is the Lebanese restaurant “Byblos” (https://byblos.me/porto-montenegro/) which is very busy in the summer not only because of the food, but it also organizes thematic evenings with attractive belly dancers shows.
Next to “Byblos”, you will find one of the first restaurants opened in Porto Montenegro “Al Posto Giusto” (https://www.portomontenegro.com/en/restaurants-cafes/al-posto-giusto/ ) which offers mostly Italian food such as pizza, pasta, risotto, fish etc. This restaurant is also popular on the weekends when there is always a D.J. or live bands which you can dance to by drinking tasty cocktails.
In Seljanovo, on the seaside, there is the famous restaurant “Big Ben” (http://www.bigbentivat.com/index.html) which used to be a café with only 30 tables when it first opened around 25 years ago and now it has 200, both on the ground and the upper terrace which is open only in the summer. Here you can eat very tasty food varying from Montenegrin, Italian, Mediterranean dishes and also sweets at very reasonable prices. This restaurant does not have delivery, but you can call them, and they will prepare the food and get it ready for you to pick up at the bar.
“Bevanda” is a recently opened restaurant next to the hotel “La Roche”. Here you can watch the chef doing his magic in preparing pizza which is also visible to the guests and creates a cozy ambience. There are also promotional prices for certain meals depending on the day, so you should follow their Facebook or Instagram page to get updates (https://www.facebook.com/bevandapizzeria/ ). This restaurant is also popular with the locals because it organizes “Karaoke nights” (Thursdays) and “Kafanska noc” (Fridays), but be aware because the times can be altered, and it is difficult to find a free table on these nights.
Restaurant “Volat” (http://volattivat.com/) is located at the beginning of the little marina Kalimanj and with its nice ambiance offers a variety of Mediterranean meals and also cakes. In the summer it offers a great view on the marina from the terrace on the third floor. There is usually live music on Saturdays.
A little bit further going towards the marina, there is the fish restaurant “Mala Barka” (https://www.facebook.com/konobamalabarka/). So, if you are a fish lover, you cannot skip visiting this place in Tivat.
Now, we will present you the restaurants doing food deliveries, which is very practical. Therefore, there are a number of them you can choose from.
Konoba “Bakina Kuhinja” (“Grandmother’s Kitchen) is located in Seljanovo, turning right from the main road on the corner from the “Aroma” market. They can deliver you daily homemade meals at very reasonable prices (4-5 euros). Also, if you need a catering company for any kind of event, they will prepare the perfects canapés, finger food, fruits and alike. More info on Instagram profile

January 22, 2019 - The quality of media programs for children and youth in one country directly shows the quality of life of that country, said Jan-Willem Bult, director of the Center for Children, Youth and Media in the Netherlands, the UNICEF Office in Montenegro stated today.
The draft law on electronic administration seeks to improve the ambience in which public administration will be at the service of citizens and businesses, by which citizens and businesspeople will communicate with public administration at any time and from any place. This was announced at a roundtable organized by the Ministry of Public Administration on the occasion of a public hearing on the Draft Law on Electronic Administration. At the Round Table, the State Secretary of the Ministry of Public Administration Dejan Abazovic and Head of the Directorate for Interoperability of Registries and Regulatory Affairs, Bojana Bajić, spoke.
Representatives of the Ministry of Public Administration in the introductory part of the presentation emphasized that one of the Government's major priorities is digitization and the development of a modern, digital state.
"They pointed out that one of the key reasons for the adoption of a new law is to improve further legal solutions that should overcome certain weaknesses and problems that have emerged in practice," it is said in the statement.
The aim is to further organize the area of e-government, following its real and projected needs, both from the aspect of development and following the requirements of international integration processes.

One of the oldest and most beautiful houses in Bijelo Polje, although crowded with the gray of various architectural buildings, is more than a silent witness of the past times.
In the soul of the rare united traditional town house in the center of the city, the unparalleled kindness and cordiality of the family of Mehmed Salemovic is interwoven, who, roughly nine years ago, with restoration, prevented it to collapse and preserved its authentic appearance.
That's why the house for years has been a favorite place for visitors and tourists to take pictures, especially in the summer. The house was visited several years ago by the then-Turkish ambassador in Montenegro Nijazi Tanilir with his wife. It is difficult to say whether it is more beautiful in the summer, with the windows lined with flowers, or under the snow that colors its rusticity.
Though restored, its appearance, particularly the hand-cut steep roof covered with shingles, resembles the appearance of about 170 years ago, which, as he came from Skopje, was found by Salem, which later became Salemovici.
Its authentic appearance is also witnessed by the picture of the house by the famous painter from Bijelo Polje Rasim Hadrović Polimski, which dominates in one of the rooms on the upper floor.
In addition, in Bijelo Polje, among the older houses are Gušmirović, Kajabegović, Kučević and Muzurović. Among them, only Kajabegović's house is restored.
The house of Salemovic has no foundation, and it is "attached" to the land with thick walls up to ninety centimeters. The lower part of the house served to tie the horses of various traders who came to the city, and thus an extra income for the family of the then famous tailor Ćerim Salemovic, Mehmed's father.
By placing a wooden floor and a window this space was turned into a kitchen and dining room, and at night it served as a bedroom. The ground floor is made of stone and the upper floor of loam, which gives the house a special charm.
Steep wooden stairs lead to the room on the first floor. Rooms with rugs are bordered by thick walls having a wooden door with a bolt.
Entrance to the rooms, especially the most prominent, with shingles ceilings with no paint, with old chandeliers, with tens of exhibits of various objects of that time, give the impression of a rich museum setting.
In that room at the end of the two walls, right next to the windows, is dominated by a huge "stretched" divan where there are " šilteta” - cushions, in front of which there is a “tegara”, which once played remarkable importance in the organization of life.
This charming portable bowl with a copper recess in which the cinder was placed, with a lid, beside the room warming, served to make coffee in cezve, and also to prepare the delicious dishes – as it is Dutch oven for roast meats. The sewing machine “Singer” from which the old tailor Cerim used to feed his wife and five children, is still used by Muradija. Old embroidered slippers complement the sewing machine with a silk shirt. Mehmed explains that it was not exactly established when the house was built, but it probably originates from the period up to 1850 and it is not known whether his grand grandfather built or bought this house. His father, Ćerim, and his mother, Lutva, daughter of the then famous imam Mustafa - Mujo Dizdarević, who served in the mosque, which was located at the site of the building “Elektroprenos” until 1957, invested their entire life in its repair and maintenance.
My father would say as a joke: "While other people and couples go to the sea, I keep my home on injections for 40 years," Mehmed says, whose father was the founder of the first tailor co-operative in Bijelo Polje. He says the idea of restoring the house came after his mother's death nine years ago, especially when the walls started "moving" down the street.
"It took me two years to find the board-shingle roof, while the ceilings - the hatchbacks retained the authentic look and were never painted. Even though the walls went to fall on the outside of the house, the craftsmen were skillfully able to stop their further movement and clamps - kept the original state," he said, adding that the works lasted for about a year.
Today, on the ground floor of the renovated house, live the sisters Muradija and Bisera, and sister Sanija often joins them. They do not mind that every so often someone rings the door-bell asking if they can take a picture, and sometimes to have a look inside. And with friendly hosts, old items, albums, cakes, among which is the popular “Tri leće” prepared by Mehmed's wife Edina, the man is easily carried away and forgets about the time.
