Most times when travelling to Macedonia was via Frankfurt.. and always without fail there were more Albanians in the plane..
In 2000 Myself and two mates were the only Macedonians in the plane...
And the taxi drivers outside the Airport were mostly Albanians and sometimes they were hard to tell who's who...

LOL at every ones bad experiences in skopje airport.

My experience of going to macedonia via zurich to Skopje in 2008:

Get to zurich airport and find out that the macedonian plane has been delayed for over 24 hours. Later on for some reason we use a a plane were Swiss troops have to board with us. The majority of the people on the plane were albanians or muslims.

This shiptar puts his luggage on the top compartment and later on this short macedonian older fellow puts his luggage next to the shiptars luggage in the same compartment. The shiptar starts running to the macedonian and starts throwing a few punches. Then its on for young and old. I personally will never forget this roided up shiptar slapping around a middle aged woman - real big man. Later on we find out that the shiptar thought the macedonian guy was "stealing" his luggage or something.

The swiss army that was boarding with us had to break up the fight.

The pilot who was driving the plane was a shiptar, he would first speak in albanian, then english and macedonian last. He was such a rough and bad driver that when we landed (it was also a very rough landing) every one in the plane started clapping because we landed in one peace.

From the sounds of things Skopje airport is bit of a joke

[QUOTE=machorot;120045]btw, best route to Macedonia, if you are traveling from Australia -
[Sydney - Hong Kong - London - Skopje][/QUOTE]

You reckon? Wouldn't something like Dubai - Belgrade - Skopje or Hong Kong - Istanbul - Skopje be better than going all the way upto London and back down? Providing ofcourse you don't have much waiting time while on your connecting flights.

So you sat back and watched all this? Nice work... Switch the roles and imagine if that was an albanian woman being slapped around what would have happened...

And then you can bitch about Albanianization on a forum while sitting back and watch Macedonian women being beaten... I hope your a child.

What a great tourist photo for Skopje:

[QUOTE=Vangelovski;119915]The 1953 Census showed that 122,143 people lived in Skopje, of whom 74,686 or 61.1% were Macedonian, 22,562 or 18.5% were Turks, 8,650 or 7.1% were Serbian, 7,829 or 6.4% were Roma and [B]3,166 or 2.6% were Albanian[/B].

Arqe88, this is a far cry from your "majority" claims about the Albanian proportion during 1943-44. Unless you can provide evidence for mass deportations, I don't see how the Albanians could have gone from a "majority" to 2.6 per cent in 10 years, given their natural growth rates.[/QUOTE]

My dad has told me that long time ago the Imams were telling to the Albanians that they were Turks because they are muslims, and thats why peoples declared theirself Turks.

I find it hard to believe that you can brainwash albanians with anti-albanian propaganda.

Valmir the albanians got caught falsifyinhe the census figures like albanians were claiming turks as albanian in order to raise the figures not albanian to turk what value is that.Anyway that is the tip of the iceberf as the albanians tried to falsify figures completely
by having holiday visitors & kosovars come over to vote on census day.lDont forget that anymoves you make to totally errode macedonian authority will be met with oppposition from macedonian govt.

Even if all the Albanians declared themselves to be Turks, your claims are still way off. Take another look at those stats.

Dont forget that we are talking about 1953 census, Now is 2012 and the numbers have changed and it is not our problem that you dont create families but prefer to live alone.
