The Mayor of Mat, Agron Malaj, once a guard and then an "electrician" at OSHEE, has opened a tender to buy local televisions. The procedure comes a few months before the general elections, where Malaj wants the service to continue for 12 months in a row. He wants the media to cover every activity, advertise all year round and receive ready-made tapes from the media.

It seems that Malaj's goal is to prepare every possible chronicle, with the "successes" of the task, in every activity of the municipality. He wants the local media to speak well of him, of the directors or of all the employees. But, isn't it "buying" the media? By giving him a tender, he enables him not to be criticized or to have investigative chronicles. A courageous act, given that he also comes from the business field, as his family runs a large firm, which wins tenders from Malaj's colleagues.

According to documents available to VoxNews, the Municipality of Mat has opened a tender with the object of "publication service and coverage of the activities of the Municipality of Mat in local media". The tender was made on February 12, while there is still no announcement about the winner. But since there are few media or televisions in Mat, the winner is also known!

Malaj wants this "advertising" to continue throughout the 12 months of the year, while also making special requests that even the country's prime minister would not dare to make. "Regarding the local media service, various announcements for the 12-month period. Reflection of investments, activities, official meetings and advertisements by the Municipality of Mat and broadcast on TV," the document states.

But not only that, as Malaj demands that the journalist representing the Local Media should also maintain constant contact with representatives of the press office at the Municipality of Mat.

"The service provider will need to maintain constant contact with the representative of the public relations office for any need for any announcement, statement, or advertisement according to the needs of the institution. The service of these representations must be offered throughout the territory of the Municipality of Mat," the document states.

It further follows that, according to the needs of the Mat Municipality institution, it is possible to restore any chronicle reflected in local media during the year on CD or USB, such as investments, activities, meetings according to the cases we may have, referring to the contract concluded between the parties. “Photography, video and professional video editing service as well as their montage for the calendar year 2025” is another request.

According to documents researched by VoxNews, the tender was held on February 12, while the winning television station must act "within 24 hours from the moment of publication of the winner's announcement."

Why all this hurry?
