Celebration on the city square
The milestone was celebrated in the centre of Tetovo with a reception where baklava was served to attendees. The event brought together municipal employees and local officials.
According to Kasami, the municipality also cleared outstanding debts of the utility company, a step he presented as necessary to stabilise operations and ensure continuous salary payments.
