On the state of physical activity in Gornji Vakuf-Uskoplje

As I was complaining of in a previous post, there is a lack of grass soccer fields. I see this as a problem, though there are more pressing concerns for physical activity here.
Nevertheless, as you can see from this picture, a rare patch of flat land in this mountainous region remains undevelopable because of mines. There are other fields just like this on the way to Bugojno. Sadly, even with a high level of de-mining, it would take 30 years to clear BiH of mines. It's a shame that the town is so closely packed together without room for a decent park or sports field. They can't expand up the mountains or into minefields. Maybe I just miss Canada's urban sprawl (Cambridge for GTA in 2027?)
Taking a mine out of the ground is a huge and timely job. I saw some demining efforts on TV last night, I guessed that it would have taken several hours to clear the infield of a baseball diamond. Not to mention, all the deminers had the best equiptment, including trained dogs. I have a difficult time thinking such ideal situations exist elsewhere in the county. I hate to think of what will happen when those power lines fail, no one will be able to repair them.
It's a shame that the unemployed people (or those who don't seem to have much to do) don't have the skills to demine the areas around their town. At the very least it could be a Make-Work plan, at best it would give people some job experience while usefully opening up land and making their village safer. I think a week or two of training with experts as well as a small group of experts who would stay and supervise would enable the local team to begin finding the mines. They don't need to defuse them, they would simply mark them for later defusal. I don't know how possible any of this would be. I don't think it very possible, when considering a lack of resources within the state. I also get the feeling that people would disagree with doing a large amount of dangerous work so that someone else would get land to build on or plant crops. I have romantic thoughts of the phrase ''how does this help me?'' not occuring in Tito's Yugoslavia.
I figured I would think of some kinds of solutions to problems that I see, in the hope that the people here can do the same. Thankfully the Centar is community-active, which is sadly an exception to the rule. It's hard to care about community when you aren't involved in half of your town.

Speaking of play spaces for youth, there is currently discussion about building a sports complex somewhere in the town. A proposal has been drafted up and sent to local administrators, though there is uncertainty as to how far it can go. One of the more touchy issues is finding a spot for the building. It has to be accessible (both physically and socially) for each side of town. There's a bombed out hotel in the centre of town, I think it should go there. I'll get a picture for you. For right now, please leave a comment or two.
