With banners with the words “Casinos don’t bring luck, but bad luck” written on them and “Without closing the casino, the border will not be opened”, “Stop degrading the youth”, “Tetovo needs public transportation, not a casino”, “Wrong investment, at the wrong time and place”, hundreds of citizens protested today against the opening of the casino in Mala Recica, around 2.00 pm, writes an anonymous citizen journalist who wants to remain anonymous.
The protest was organized by the Local Community of Mala Recica, with speeches held by Professor Lulzim Murtezani and Imam Nuhi Ganii.
Psychologist Murtezani explained the damage that casinos cause in the lives of young people and families of those who visit such games of chance.
Imam Ganii stressed that casinos are against the Islamic religion.
The Rector of the Tetovo University, Vulnet Ahmeti, also gave support to the protest, who highlighted that the young people need libraries, and not casinos.
