BBC Web Site: Country Profile - Albania ** Ju lutem merrni pjese **
Te nderuar list member.
Me poshte do gjeni nje email qe i eshte nisur faqes se internetit te BBC persa i perket portretizimit te Shqiperise ne web site e BBC.
Do sygjeroja qe meqenese keni nje list me disa qindra anetare aktive ti bashkangjiteni kesaj nisme. Jo vetem BBC por edhe faqje te tjera interneti fillojne pershkrimin e Shqiperise “nje nga vendet me te varfara ne Europe”. Nje imazh qe na ka ndjekur per 13-14 vitet e fundit dhe qe ne realitet mund mos jete fare real, ku Shqiperia mund te lere mbrapa te pakten rreth 8-9 shtete te tjera te ish Europes Lindore dhe ku po punohet dhe ndertohet per ti dhene nje faqe te re ketij vendi qe koha dhe fatet e lane shume te prapambetur ne mes te Europes.
Per me teper nisja e pershkrimit te nje vendi me nje fjali kryesore “vendi me i varfer i Europes” jo vetem qe eshte tendencioze por nuk e gjendet si element pershkrimi ne asnje nga “country profile” te vendeve te tjera ku flitet per kulturen e tyre dhe jo per renditjen nga pasuria.
Pershkrimi i nje vendi duhet te pasqyroje karateristikat dhe elementet unikale qe e dallojne ate dhe Shqiperia ka plot qe e bejne kete shtet te vecante nga shume vende te Europes, per historine, vuajtet, sakrificat qe ka kaluar dhe padrejtesite e kesaj Europe “plake” qe na vendos edhe epitete.
Do ju lutesha qe te merrnin nje rol me aktiv, jo si organizate politke, por si nje brez qe perfaqeson rinine dhe qe qendrojme per ato qe besojme, dhe s’mund dhe s’duhet te leme te tjeret te na pikturojne me ato penela qe iu shkon per shtat interesave te tyre.
Ju mund te merrni shume me mire se une iniciativen (per arsye kohe dhe organizimi) per te firmosur se te gjithe se bashku nje leter elektronike apo te shkruar drejtuat BBC, ose secili individualisht mund te nis nje “complain” faqes se BBC per te bere te degjuar zerin tone.

Dear Sir or Madam
I am a regular reader of your BBC news on the web for several years.
I also occasionally browse around your other links and your country profile.
Regarding Albania your headline is:
"One of Europe's poorest countries, Albania is nevertheless a rich blend of religions, cultures and landscapes - and its political landscape has been equally varied."
I have also read your headline for all the other countries of the south east Europe such as Macedonia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Serbia and Croatia.
None of the above has a sentence starting with "poor country"
I suggest and strongly recommend that you change it, that when you intend to profile a country, you should start with what that country stands for, his origin, characteristics and his culture that makes it unique.
Otherwise using such prejudice and attitude, what would happen if we start profiling England as an old gone empire that has occupied and exploited without any rights dozen of countries and free lands for centuries.
Being a standard of world news, such as BBC stand for, I expect that you take into consideration the above suggestion and start reviewing not only the profile of Albania but also that of many other countries that maybe were portrayed 5-6 years ago and need a major re-editing. One reminder, Albania has not stand still in 1992 or 1993 and we are in the end of 2003, therefore be more realistic of your expressed view of this nation.
Regards
