Well it got the Macedonian youth involved in organizing events for Macedonian awareness, we organized dances and fundraisers, things like that. It was involved with the churches, and it was fun and educational.

Right now I notice that UMD is more appealing to the older generations, the ones who are aware and want to be involved. I feel that there should be a program for those who are in their teens and early 20's to teach them about the issues and start involving them at a young age so they can help each other in the future. That's what I thought of when I participated in MOYANA

Why would Macedonia support Australia.Macedonia is recognized as fyrom,Australia has allready sided with the irrendist Greeks.It's not going to help Macedonia one iota.

Australia has an excellent chance to secure a seat at the UN Security Council in 2013/14 round. It can strengthen its chances of success by reaching out to the many ethnic communities that are part of the Australia community such as the Macedonians. Diasporas can be the secret to success in influencing governemtns around the world to support Australia's bid. The Australian Macedonian community through organisations like the United Macedonian Diaspora is working closely with Australian MPs and the Macedonian Government to ensure that Australia gets full support from Macedonia and its political networks in the UN.

Australia needs to get with the program already and to give people the God given courtesy and right to their identity.
