Concepts: Public relations (II)
The image that others have for you
 Organization’s image The image is important, because it is the way others see you. Real image cannot be developed and then presented overnight; it takes time and it is more a process than just an event. You cannot immediately be in trend, the old users to like you, to be friendly to the children and multi-ethnic. However, you have to start from somewhere in a certain period, and the best place to start is where you are at the moment.

Commentary
Together for a better societyIn an informal talk with some friends on the Roma people condition and problems in Macedonia, which has been a subject to my engagement in the last two years, I was trying to share my knowledge about the life and difficulties of a part of the Macedonian population. One of my friend's comments was: "It is not my problem, it is their problem!". Besides the fact that I ended the conversation, I started thinking about the values/criteria in our society.
