Tanskassa puuhataan Suur-Kööpenhaminaa

COPENHAGEN, Denmark: (AP) - Denmark lost the province of Scania to Sweden more than 350 years ago. Now the Danes want it back at least for marketing purposes.

Copenhagen Mayor Frank Jensen wants the Danish capital and surrounding municipalities on both sides of the border to promote the region internationally as "Greater Copenhagen."

The idea of Scania being part of a metropolitan area with Copenhagen at the center has gained traction since the two were connected in 2000 by a bridge-and-tunnel link across the Oresund strait.

Malmö varmaan voitaisiinkin palauttaa. Ensiksi kylläkin Ruotsille.

Kööpenhamina ja Malmö ovat molemmat yhtä islamisoituneita, joten ne ovat jo osa islamilaista kaupunkialuetta.

Helsingborg ja Landskrona (eritoten) kaupan päälle.

Taitaa koko Skåne kuulua islamilaiseen vyöhykkeeseen tulevaisuudessa.

Although examples of coordination across national borders are rare, the rebranding makes sense, he believes – global competition is real and fierce, and if two smaller cities become one big region they can mobilise their assets, populations and amenities.

"Cities in general, and Copenhagen in particular, have become more recognised and regarded as the primary territorial brands," Clark says. "Copenhagen's leadership on the climate change and liveability agendas has made it a recognised international brand."

The two sides make a good fit. Denmark's capital is overcrowded, corporate and expensive, while Malmö, Sweden's third city across the water, has spare capacity, is relatively cheap, and has more of an enterprise economy. But Swedes feel somewhat ambiguous about being nominally subsumed by their Danish neighbours.

"I do not feel in the current situation that we are prepared to leave Malmö behind," the city's social democratic mayor, Katrin Stjernfeldt Jammeh, said last year. "I think it would cause problems on the Swedish side."

Instead of Greater Copenhagen, Stefan Johansson, head of the Invest in Skåne business lobby, would prefer to rebrand the Øresund region the "Scandinavia Bay Area", alluding to the west coast of the US.

The government in Stockholm says the debate is a regional matter but this could mean Skåne would be overlooked for future investment if it starts to be seen as "semi-foreign", according to Per Tryding, vice-president of the South Sweden Chamber of Commerce.

Elikkäs svedut ei äkkiä olekaan niin suvaitsevia kun Skåne on lentämässä yli rajojen.
