TIRANA, Oct. 18 – The government decided Wednesday to launch an international tender on rehabilitation of the International Cultural Center, or the Pyramid, or Pjeter Arbnori Center, to adapt it to the needs of a national theater and an art museum. The decision said that the Culture Ministry should free its pace within three months after the decision comes into power.
The problem remains with the Top Media group (Top Channel television station, Top Albania Radio station, and Digitalb) which are stationed there and have a contract with the government. The group announced Wednesday they had received an answer fro Joze Manuel Barroso of the European Commission advising them they should go to the proper judicial institutions to resolve the issue. The group said they had started the legal procedure against the government.
