REMINDER! Australia Census - Macedonians in Australia

[julie]

I was in Mak in August and it irritated me not being able to fill out the census form -

[The LION will ROAR]

All thou majority claim to be Macedonian Orthodox 43,068 & 14,676 Macedonians claimed to be of Eastern Orthodox
What concerns me is that 5,381 Macedonian claim to be of greek Orthodox religion.......?
And another example, The Serbian showing 4,254 of greek Orthodox religion...
I can understand some Macedonians being Grekomani but What is wrong with most of these people.. Are they too dumb or too lazy to fill out the census correctly...?


In Greek Census, Not one claimed to have been Born in the greek Province of Macedonia.. where are all these proud greek-Macedonians..?


The Albanians, shows population of just under 10,000 in Australia and it indicates that 1,829 Albanians born in Macedonia, 20.4% that have migrated to Australia


Surprised to see such a small population of Bulgarians in Australia under 3,000 if I haven’t got the stats wrong...
I’m curious to know why Bulgaria didn’t have a big influx of immigrated to Australia like the other Balkan Nations..?
I notice that there were 7 claiming to Bulgarians born in Macedonia..?
Also it shows that majority of 665 Bulgarians at 28.7% claim to be of greek Orthodox religion...? WTF
Funny that none claim to be of Bulgarian Orthodox, but 466 of them 20.1% noted of Eastern Orthodox, 27 of them claim to be of Russian Orthodox


We are by Far greater then Serbians, Croatians or any other Balkan Nation excluding Greece, yet we cannot manage to own our Clubs... etc

You make a good point.. How many Macedonians in August that were still on Holidays in Macedonia..?
I knew several families that were over there at the time...Not to mention others that were at other destinations..
I know a few Macedonians that were temporally away at that time for work in Asia and USA..
So there could be at least a couple of thousands that were not countered for..

...the July/August period is a busy period for Australian Macedonians travelling back to Macedonia, that's for sure...

...my good friend Osiris would be mortified by the claim that all of shep is grkoman.

I assume that's the old baba and dedo egej's who never converted to the Macedonian Orthodox Church.

MENTAL CASES!

No, NORMAL human adds province UNLESS they're asked to provide additional information.

NOT EVEN FATSO CLAIMS TO BE A Canadian-Quebec-Ontarian-Greek-Macedonian (time is money)

[George S.]

a fair amount of the so called greeks in melbourne i would say is our missing macedonians.That's why one etgnographer puts it that macedonians could be up to 300,000 in australia.The question is to declare or not to declare.
