analysis: The text appears to be discussing economic policy and reforms in Albania, focusing on the improvement of the economic mechanism and the expansion of enterprise rights. It seems to be related to economic development and planning, with no apparent connection to natural resources, environment, agriculture, forestry, fishing, health, education, employment, humanitarian aid, culture, or science and technology.
