Even with diplomas, still skeptical about perspective
According to the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare, the number of unemployed in the municipality of Gjilan in 2015 was about 14,050, out of which 6,337 were women.
Lack of property is leaving women without businesses
Blerina Xhaqku, a-28 year-old from Kamenica, mother of two, is one of many women who want to own her own her business. Her husband, Fatmir, has his own business. He is a landscape construction worker. She is not able to own a business like her husband since, according to her,her family did not share the inheritance proportionally between her and her brothers. Thus, it has been impossible for her to make her wish come true.
Still imposed upon in choosing their education
Lack of perspective in employment and the will for a better living often pushes parents to “choose” which education track their children follow, and sometimes, parents even choose their profession. Even if there is disagreement, usually children are forced to accept “the only offer on the table.”
Skepticism in religious journey
“I gave up Christianity because we were attacked by some self-declared Muslims, and I gave up Islam because I was not convinced by it. I determined my position regarding religion through a long process of reading religion history and philosophy and of course by reading religious books,” he says.
Strezoc: From the richest magnesium mine in the Ballkans to a deserted place
Kamenica’s vice-mayor from 1969 to 1976, RadomirDjokic, now 88 years old and the author of some books about the villages of this municipality, recalls how the mine was one of the reasons for the development of Strezoc, and later for the whole municipality, making 30% of the budget.
Women of Gjilan are given priority in employment
There are no exact data how many people are employed in the private sector in the last years. But according to the data of the municipality, in 2012, out of 8,699 individuals who gained employment, only 2,078 were women.
