Comments in support of
Boyko Borissov
Mayor of Sofia (Bulgaria)

The finalists for the 2006 World Mayor Award were chosen on the number of votes received as well as on the persuasiveness and conviction of supporting statements. Below we publish an representative selection of comments received about the mayor.

Comment: The best mayor we ever had. Possibly he is the future prime minister as well.

Comment: Mr. Borissov is no politician, he speaks the language of the average person, he is one of the people, he doesn't make lame excuses and gets straight to the problem. A politician says a simple thing in 1000 words and then does nothing about it, Mr. Borissov simply takes care of the problem.

Comment: I vote for Boyko Borissov because he is strong-minded and knows what he wants to do for Sofia how to do it. He fights against organized crime and he's a honest man.

Comment: General Boyko Borissov is the greatest mayor in Bulgaria...and in Europe, because he took one of the most difficult cities in Europe and now he tries to make changes...and he succeeds!

Comment: Mr Borissov deserves to win the World Mayor Award because his great efforts and will for success need support; because day after day the people of Sofia see their city getting different and better and because we can always rely on him!

Comment: Mayor Borissov is particularly interested in celebrating the multiculturalism of Sofia. He works very closely with ethnic groups and cultural associations. Through many international multicultural initiatives he is breaking down cultural barriers and bringing together the city's many nationalities.
More than 100,000 citizens from around the world have taken part in the 2006 World Mayor Project.
