Let's make this birthday one to remember.

77 years old (Born on August 07, 1947)

Happy Birthday, Sulev Maeltsemees! The undisputed father of Municipal Autonomy in Estonia—your legacy is so strong that even city councils whisper your name with reverence. You've championed local governance like no other; rumor has it municipalities throw parties just to celebrate the autonomy you've gifted them!

From groundbreaking reforms to inspiring countless politicians, your recent successes continue making waves across Estonia's towns and cities. Mayors secretly compete for a nod from you—the ultimate seal of approval.

Here's wishing you another year filled with laughter, joy, and perhaps fewer council meetings (though we doubt you'd want less!). Cheers!
