Valjmir i Fatmir Rama: There is progress in education, however, there is no progress in resolving the housing issue

The Rama family from Tivat can be proud of their sons. Valjmir and Fatmir Rama, who graduated from the Secondary School Mladost, majoring in auto mechatronics, are the only members of the Egyptian population who enrolled in college.

The future freshmen of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering point out that their two sisters are also in school, that is. attend primary school. Parents support them in their intention to continue their education and they have always encouraged them to be better than them, to invest in themselves, because knowledge is a power that no one can ever take away from you. Valjmir was our collaborator on the project New beginning for 500 Roma students. He helped families enroll their children in kindergartens, primary and secondary schools. Both were beneficiaries of mentoring support as part of a regional project Increasing access and participation of Roma students in secondary educations and transition to the labor market funded by the European Union, which our organization as a national partner implements through the Roma Education Fund. We talked with the Rama brothers about schooling, extracurricular activities, the role of a mentor, the vocation of a car mechanic, the problems of the Egyptian community in Tivat, the urgency of resolving the legal status, and the housing issue. We wish them a happy journey into the world of academics and successful studies!

Visit to Bajramshaha Jasharaj, employee of the Start plus market - A smile that makes everyone return

In the Start plus market, owned by the Jasharaj family, which is located in the Spanskih boraca street, you can find everything you need - from a needle to a locomotive. The rich offer of fresh fruits and vegetables, delicacies, dairy products, pastries, and personal hygiene products, attracts not only customers from the settlement, but the ones from all parts of the city. However, discounts and various items are not the only things customers return to. In this trade oasis on Konik, at the very entrance, there is a coffee machine, from which we immediately grabbed a macchiato. But even delicious hot drinks that invigorate passers-by or customers waiting for a longer purchase are not the only reason to return. What makes the market successful is the family atmosphere and smiles, because you will admit, there is nothing that can brighten your day like a smiling face. It is this smile on the face of cashier and saleswoman Bajramshaha Jasharaj. She waved at us and invited us to visit Start plus. And so began our story.
