    UMetoD, our local South Australian community did not raise a fuss over the Mike Rann issue until they resolved an application for a grant. It was a disgusting act that deservedly made them look utterly stupid.

To us, and to the people, there is nothing else.
      UMD has changed its position on this previously.

      They do and they publically release all information as to the project aims, funding amounts and funding sources.

      You can contact any Australian Macedonian organisation (incorporated under Australian law) and I'm sure they will be happy to provide you with an Annual Financial Statement and Report.

      The position of a Macedonian organisation, especially one claiming to represent the diaspora, is held to a higher standard than the position of a non-Macedonian organisation, government or individual which has no interest in the Macedonian cause.

        I did call them, there was no answer other than "we know who you are". Strangely enough there has been an American car parked outside my house all night and the driver never took his sunglasses off all night!
        Are you serious Risto?

        Easy money is not often easy.
        You're right about that, like the old saying goes there is no such thing as a free lunch.
        МАКЕДОНЕЦ си кога кавал ќе ти ја распара душата,зурла ќе ти го раскине срцето,кога секое влакно од кожата ќе ти се наежи кога ќе видиш шеснаесеткрако сонце,кога до коска ќе те заболи кога ќе слушнеш ПЈРМ,кога немаш ни за леб,а полн си во душата затоа што ја сакаш МАКЕДОНИЈА. МАКЕДОНИЈА во срце те носиме.

          Don't put down your community; they did quite a lot against Rann.

            What did you do? Apparently MP was going to set you up on a 'current affair'? Schedule too busy?

              Absurd is when you advocate name changes and "understand" ethnic Albanian extremists like the government tool that the UMD is. You have absolutely no clue about being impartial Meto, you're exactly like a child in a school and your arguments display that sort of 'intellect'. You've disgraced yourself 100 fold in Australia, even if your buddy that runs the newspaper here says otherwise.

              Rest assured, you will not gain a foothold here, we have no place for your sort of ideology, and you will always remain an opportunistic vassal for foreign interests. Many Macedonians see this, and more will as time goes by.

                And that is why UMD's membership in Australia and New Zealand grew as a result of the UMD United for Macedonia's Future Tour. Thanks to these members, UMD will be opening up regional representatives throughout Australia and New Zealand this year. And several Australians are coming to our conference in Toronto next week.

                            Prolet - check out the speaker bios under program on http://www.UMDGlobalConference.org, two or three panelists are from Australia.

                            Bill - do you want to come? Here is your invitation, on the front page of the following website:



                            The Second Annual UMD Global Conference unites Macedonians from five continents from a variety of fields including business, government, the arts, and education for a unique four-day experience. Themed Building Partnerships, the event will not only illustrate the importance of Macedonian alliances but will also provide attendees with an intimate understanding of Macedonia’s place in a globalized world.

                            Join us this June in Toronto as we gather the most talented and successful Macedonians from around the globe to discuss questions of profound significance to them and Macedonia.


                            “Our country is faced with a large challenge. Its goal of Euro-Atlantic integration is challenged by an irrational problem imposed by a single member state of NATO and the EU. We are encouraged by the support of the USA, Canada and many other nations in discussions on overcoming this problem that continue under the auspices of the United Nations. I am personally grateful to the Macedonian Diaspora, and through organizations such as the United Macedonian Diaspora, for being Ambassadors for their homeland, Macedonia.”

                                If you call writing a letter to an MP "action" then you are a greater amatuer than I thought. That's a phase that most serious activists passed through at age 16.
