Ljubljana, 27 December - Slovenia mounted a joint bid with the Czech Republic in 2011 to get the works of architect Jože Plečnik (1872-1957) listed on UNESCO's World Heritage List, but it has decided it would continue with the efforts alone after the transnational bid was assessed as having little chance of success.
