Thus far 71,617 residents have registered in the province, a decent number of which are ethnic Albanians, according to the director of Serbia's Postal Serbice PTT in Kosovo, Randjel Nojkic.
Nojkic said that according to regions, most of the people who registered - some 25,000 - are from northern Kosovo.
In Sirinicka Zupa (south) 12,500 have registered, 13,000 in Kosovsko Pomoravlja, 17,100 in central Kosovo and 3,500 in Metohija.
The government decided earlier this year to make all Serbian citizens over the age of 18 eligible to receive shares and cash from the sale of the largest public enterprises, including Jat Airways, EPS electricity company, NIS petroleum company, and Telekom Serbia.
