More than 486,000 Albanian citizens have answered to the 12 questions on challenges of the country’s development as part of the National Consultation initiative launched by the government of Albania.

Prime Minister Edi Rama said via a social networking post that “a total of 486,690 citizens have joined the initiative by providing replies through the three means of communication, namely the online platform www.keshillimikombetar.al, via mail and the recently opened municipal information offices.”

According to the government head, collecting the citizens’ opinion is also taking place at the information centres established in all cities throughout the country.

PM Rama expressed gratitude to all citizens for taking part in the nation-wide consultation process and invites those who have yet to join in the initiative to express their opinion, learn, cooperate and support each other as citizens.
