if this plan is objectionable to you, what do you propose instead?
thanks,
I gather your have been fully aware of the roadmap and have also played a part in the construction faze, what are your contributed ideas to the roadmap and how will the roadmap be realized in your views.

Noone even knows what the Roadmap is. UMD has refused to provide a copy. Have you been reading the thread!?
What is objectionable is that a foreign group with no community support in Australia is speaking to our politicians and telling them that they represent our views when they clearly do not.

Seriously, does one even need a roadmap to navigate a goat trail...umd love the drama, the spotlight, the cocktail parties and the American style fundraising events, it makes them feel important and relevent when clearly the reality is somewhat different...
Sadly, umd's roadmap is the proverbial, road to nowhere...

A bit like the MPO in the old days, representing themselves as speaking for Macedonians and on behalf of them. I mean the Bulgarian and Greek government have been doing it for over a century, over the heads of Macedonians. Gruevski is in talks with our enemy over our historical and poltiical identity, even though the Macedonian people are against it. UMD is just another example of an institution claiming to speak for and behalf of all Macedonians, while the average Macedonians gets fked over by these 'representatives' in back room deals. I can only imagine the kind of 'scribbling' Gruevski has penned down as he tinkers with our name. These lunatics must be stopped.
UMD President Metodija A. Koloski did not pass on any Roadmap to any elected representatives in Australia. This Roadmap was drafted by UMD Australian Director Ordan Andreevski and his team of Australian-Macedonians, and endorsed by the majority of Australian Macedonian organizations, and supported by many Australian-Macedonian individuals. This Roadmap was also supported and endorsed by the Australian-Macedonian Parliamentary Friendship Group, consisting of Australian Federal Members of Parliament.
Adelaide Macedonian Community of SA is not one of them
We are Macedonians, and you are not representing us

After further inquiries, it has come to my attention that the "Macedonian Council of SA" which Meto claims support his "Roadmap" is a one-man band paper organisation headed up by none other than Steve Kostoff. For those unfamiliar with Mr Kostoff, he refers to us as "Slav Macedonians".
South Australian Premier Mike Rann has been accused of marginalising the Macedonian community.
Mr Rann, visiting Greece earlier this month, was quoted in a Greek newspaper saying that neighbouring Macedonia was "as Greek as the Acropolis".
The comment on the heated dispute about history and territory has insulted Steve Kostoff, who represents South Australia's Macedonians.
"The Premier has marginalised our community time and time again, time will show that Mr Rann is incorrect in marginalising the Macedonian community," he said.
Mr Kostoff says Greek and Macedonian cultures are not one and the same and has written to the Premier's office demanding an apology.
"Not only is our culture different but our language and our history, our religion are different. The distinction between what is actually a Slav Macedonian and a Greek is very obvious, particularly to us," he said.
