US President a historic visit to Albania
 |
TIRANA, June 10 - U.S. President George W. Bush received a hero's welcome on Sunday as the first sitting American president to visit Albania. Bush was welcomed with military cannons firing a 21-gun salute prior to his meeting with President Alfred Moisiu. On a brilliantly sunny day, thousands gathered in a downtown square to see Bush and First Lady Laura Bush during their short stop before leaving Tirana in the afternoon. Huge banners proclaimed, "Proud to be Partners" and billboards said "President Bush in Albania Making History." People in the square wore red, white and blue paper hats with stars on top. Albania also issued three postage stamps with Bush's picture and the Statue of Liberty, and renamed a street in front of parliament in his honor. Moisiu awarded a medal to Bush which read, "To the President of the United States of America, Albania's and Albanians' great ally, in a sign of deep gratitude for the historic role in defending freedom, democracy and human rights, to the benefit of the Albanian nation and the whole region," the citation read.

New airport terminal
 |
TIRANA, March.21 – Albania has a new gateway to the world. The new passenger terminal at Tirana International Airport, in which HOCHTIEF AirPort has a 47 percent stake, was officially opened Wednesday in the presence of Prime Minister Sali Berisha and 600 invited guests. The bright and airy glazed building forms the core of a comprehensive modernization program representing an investment of around 50 million euro. This design masterpiece, prepared by Malaysian architect Hin Tan, will house eight souvenir and duty-free shops, bars, restaurants and cafes. There will be a restaurant both in departures and arrivals, while just outside the terminal a covered piazza-style bar with traditional Albanian stone façade will offer a very pleasant and relaxing view of the building and its surrounds. The new terminal building satisfies the most sophisticated of demands. Since April 2005, a private consortium, comprising HOCHTIEF AirPort, DEG Deutsche Investitions- und Entwicklungsgesellschaft (31.7 percent) and the Albanian-American Enterprise Fund (21.3 percent), has been operating and expanding Tirana International Airport, which serves Albania‘s capital city. |
