Congratulations to the Macedonian community of Greater Wollongong for holding the annual MASO CUP. The organisation should look at bringing the Macedonian business Leaders to explore greater exposure and better marketing of the event. Way don’t we have Macedonian team from Perth WA? I’m sure we can find way to fund their travel expenses.
