One of the institutions that has a " free hand " in public money is the Albanian Development Fund .
Created for " public work ", very quickly this institution has turned into a " political lever " for the government, having " in hand " most of the municipalities, those with medium and small incomes.
For many years, the ADF has held dozens of tenders for local roads, facades or even squares, within the framework of the Urban Renaissance.
He has done the latter twice in B erat , Dibër , Tirana , Kavajë , Kuçovo , etc. But, when it " finished " with these works, the Fund turned its eyes to the " tallavaja ".
And there is no way to do it better in the election year, allocating a large amount of 3.3 million euros just for parties in 61 municipalities of the country.
ADF's list of requirements for equipment is similar to those of the world's biggest singers or bands.
" VoxNews " has secured the documents of this tender, which has an object "support for the revitalization of social and cultural activity in the function of strengthening the regional and local identity", with a fund of 333,333,110 ALL without VAT.
A considerable fund, seeing that it is not a question of public works, parks, buildings, squares or facades, but only for music and parties throughout the country.
ADF writes in documents that the money was financed by the government for the vision " Albania 2030 ".
However, this slogan is more electoral than government, since for a long time the slogan has been used by exponents of the majority, who have also started the campaign for the 2025 general elections.
In the documents, it is mentioned that the medium and small cities lack activities and the revitalization of social-cultural life, including the growth of pride.
But pride does not grow with music, but with the opening of jobs, with an education, health and good order.
In the lines, ADF writes that it aims to promote young artists. But the Fund itself was not set up as a television, but to fix some neglected local works.
"The project extends to the territory of 61 municipalities of the Republic of Albania" is written in these documents.
In addition to the explanations for the tender, the Albanian Development Fund has also published the list of required equipment.
They require boxes for music, speech, phone, stage monitor. Also dozens of audio microphones, dozens of microphones or signal distributors.
They require several LED screens of different sizes, DJ equipment, video processors or even cameras with Full HD / 4k resolution .
The requests do not end, as they also want a lighting projector, LED panel and several types of lighting. They also require stage smokehouses, stage and lighting mixers, iron scaffolding or even lecterns with LED screens.
The list is very long, while they also want a stage covered with a roof, podiums, chairs, tables, carpets and rugs .
