Reference excerpt

Hetem Ramadani (born c. 1952) is a Kosovo - Albanian engineer and businessman of Albanian extraction who is the president and founder of Salbatring, an oil products-trading company based in Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Early life Ramadani was born around 1952, of Albanian extraction. He trained as a mechanical engineer.

Career Ramadani has claimed that he was dismissed from his civil service job in Kosovo due to his support for Kosovar independence. He then fled to Slovenia in 1991, chased out of Kosovo by Slobodan Milošević's secret police according to the Financial Times, and arrived there penniless and unable to speak the language. In Slovenia, he and his wife Hazbije Ramadani founded the oil products-trading company Salbatring International which specialises in trading oil-related financial derivatives. He is president and Hazbije was the vice president. The firm was named after the couple's first three daughters. In 2008, Salbatring began direct sales of oil and oil derivatives to its key customer, INA of Croatia. The same year, turnover at Salbatring increased from 60 million euros in 2007 to 611 million euros, despite Salbatring having only 14 employees. Ramadani was calculated to be the seventh-richest person in Slovenia, with estimated assets of over 68 million euros. Results at INA, however, were less successful, with the firm experiencing a "catastrophic" loss of about 1.5 billion kuna in the last three months of 2008. Ramadani moved to Dubai at about this time.

Personal life

Ramadani married Hazbije Ramadani in 1981. They had four children but separated in 2008 and Mrs Ramadani moved to London. Mr Ramadani moved to Dubai at about the same time. Their marriage was dissolved by a Slovenian court in 2011. In legal proceedings in London in November 2015, Hazbije Ramadani argued that her former husband could afford to pay her spousal support as, in her opinion, he has assets of at least £48 million. The claim was rejected by counsel for Mr Ramadani who argued that the matter had already been settled in Slovenia. Ramadani is now married to the Albanian opera singer Inva Mula.

Art In 2010 it was reported that Ramadani was the buyer at auction for 75,000 euros of an icon by mid-eighteenth-century painter Kostandin Shpataraku that was formerly in the ownership of the family of the modern painter, Alush Shima.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Hetem Ramadani

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Hetem Ramadani claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In physics, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Hetem Ramadani before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Hetem Ramadani ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Hetem Ramadani

In research: Hetem Ramadani appears in physics research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Hetem Ramadani in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Hetem Ramadani is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1950s births, 21st-century mechanical engineers, Kosovan people of Albanian descent, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Hetem Ramadani outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
