The misery pulse (Kosova Sot)

The paper’s front-page editorial comments on the latest Public Pulse conducted by the UNDP and USAID in Kosovo, saying that it is “a realistic assessment of the scandalous state of governance in Kosovo”. “A summary of the key indicators and findings of the survey, which covers the period March – September 2015, shows that the satisfaction of the people with the work of institutions has reached the lowest point since March 2007. Such a negative assessment was expected because the current government hasn’t done anything with regards to economic development, the rule of law, the healthcare and education. The low level of satisfaction with the work of institutional leaders, starting from the President, Prime Minister and the Assembly President, is evidence of their incompetent leadership. The findings of the survey also show that unemployment, poverty and corruption remain the biggest problems in Kosovo. The current government has failed to attract foreign investors and has even scared away the few investors with its bureaucracy and corruption … The UNDP survey also shows that the current situation is discouraging and that the social bomb can explode anytime.”
