Citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina are known for their sense of humor and turning every situation into a joke. However, it is impossible not to notice that year 2016 was truly special and rich when it comes to jokes, and BiH politicians are credited the most for that.
The year 2016 is over, and it is uncertain whether citizens of BiH enter year 2017 with forgiveness. According to the Prime Minister of FBiH Fadil Novalić, citizens did not pay attention to consumption in 2016. They lived the high life, brushed their teeth with toothpaste, washed their dishes with warm water, smoke three cigarettes while drinking one coffee, threw out the ashes and washed their hair with shampoo. Caps Lock was on all day long, people watches TVs with lights on, and they threw non-licked yoghurt caps into trash. Although the citizens regularly reported about their activities on social networks, asking for forgiveness from Fadil Novalić with a hashtag #fadileoprosti, Novalić still did not do it. It is a major task to ask from retail chains to make lists of items that the citizens buy the most so that he could determine which of those items are essential. Cigarettes and alcohol are certainly not, he already emphasized that.
Speaking of holidays, it is good that Christmas and Eid are not marked on the same day because only then there would be a chaos due to the system even-uneven. Although the Sarajevo Canton Government believed that this is an excellent way to reduce pollution in Sarajevo, the decision was abolished already the second day. This decision by the Sarajevo Canton Government also affected the love life of citizens by determining on which days they are allowed to see each other and even then they had to be careful to go home before midnight.
Of course, this decision did not affect those who love walking. While finding their way through the dense fog, the walkers had to cross the sidewalk in front of the Presidency of BiH, which has light signalization. This was also a sign for citizens that they are in the municipality which is more important than ten other municipalities in Bosnia and Herzegovina. At least that is what the BiH Presidency member Bakir Izetbegović says.
Those who are behind this grand project actually predicted the fog and even-uneven system so they installed poles with light signalization which served as navigation for citizens when they could not see a thing, and those who were not allowed to drive had an opportunity to walk on the sidewalk made of the highest quality cement. The quality of the sidewalk is best known to the disabled citizens, to whom the sidewalk facilitated “walking in wheelchairs”.
The wellbeing of citizens is not only taken care of when it is foggy. Their safety and health are on the first place when there is rain or snow, and is there more ideal and better place to hide from rain and snow than the iron eaves on the building of the University of Sarajevo. The wooden one has been spoiling the look of the beautiful building for years so a new one, more beautiful and richer, was placed instead. The quality should not be questioned whatsoever because it is guaranteed by the amount of 40.000 BAM paid for the eaves. The eaves also has the predispositions to become a tourist attraction because its construction was partly financed with funds collected from membership fees in the Tourist Board and residence taxes in the Tourist Board of the Sarajevo Canton, and tourists would certainly like to see what purposes their money has served.
The number of those who made sure that the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina have reasons to laugh in 2016 was certainly high.
