municipalities and villages. An example is the project for the reconstruction of „Partizanska“ street in Demir Kapi. The Ministry of Local Self-Government finances the project with 10.7 million denars, while the municipality participates with 2 million denars, said the Minister of Local Self-Government Risto Penov, who visited the municipality of Demir Kapia.

- I welcome the initiative of the mayor Llazar Petrov, he has ideas and makes maximum efforts to realize them. The participation in the project with one's own means also speaks for this. Positive changes are evident and this trend should continue. It is important that municipalities have identified their needs and
projects that will promote development through the use of their potential.

Penov emphasized that there is almost no municipality in the country that does not have its peculiarities, which should be used, invested in that potential to make positive changes.

- The municipality of Demir Kapija is a small municipality with an excellent location and great natural potential. This potential must be utilized and put to the function of the development of the municipality and the region. The chance is in transit and summer tourism, while it is necessary for the municipality to improve its performance, investments in infrastructure and more investments in its advantages.
