Mate Boban bio je prvi predsjednik i utemeljitelj Hrvatske zajednice Herceg Bosne. U kolovozu 1993. Hrvatska zajednica prerasta u Hrvatsku Republiku Herceg Bosnu. Da je koncept Mate Bobana opstao, Hrvati u BiH bi po mišljenju mnogih danas po bogatstvu i snazi bili u rangu s najrazvijenijima u Europi, a u tome bi im pomagala i hrvatskoiseljeništvo.
Nažalost, Herceg Bosna je sebe ugradila u koncept ovakve Bosne i Hercegovine što je najveća pogreška političkog rukovodstva Hrvata. Danas Hrvati ne mogu birati svoje predstavnike u Predsjedništvo BiH, a pitanje je vremena kada će ostati i bez svih ostalih prava. Sarajevo ih ionako već godinama sustavno pljačka.
Mnogi glasuju na izborima za HDZ jer eto misle i govore kako im HDZ daje novac i pomoć, pa prelaze preko izdaje hrvatstva te i SDP vlada, ne videći da im oni ne daju nego da ime nešto dijele iz političkih razloga kako bi ostali na koruptivnoj vlasti – ako dijele onda dijele narodni novac ne njihov. I onda se i to vidi kako se mnogi ulizuju i crvenom Zoranu Milanoviću koji, sudeći po njegovoj političkoj tkanini, im ništa dobra na duge staze neće donijeti nego još više uništavati hrvatsvo.

The loss of you on July 7, 1997, is too great a loss for the Croats! Rest in God’s peace and may you have eternal glory!
Mate Boban was the first president and founder of the Croatian Community of Herceg Bosna. In August 1993, the Croatian community grew into the Croatian Republic of Herceg-Bosna. If Mate Boban’s concept had survived, in the opinion of many, the Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina would be on a par with the most developed in Europe in terms of wealth and strength, and the Croatian emigration would help them in this.
Unfortunately, Herceg Bosnia incorporated itself into the concept of this kind of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which is the biggest mistake of the political leadership of the Croats. Today, Croats cannot elect their representatives to the BiH Presidency, and it is a matter of time when they will be left without all other rights. Sarajevo has been systematically robbing them for years anyway.
Many people vote for the HDZ in the elections because they think and say that the HDZ gives them money and help, so they pass over the betrayal of Croatia and the SDP government, not seeing that they do not give to them anything, but that they give something for political reasons in order to remain in corrupt power. – if they give, then they give out people’s money, not theirs. And then you can see how many people are sucking up to the red Zoran Milanović who, judging by his political fabric, won’t bring them anything good in the long run but destroy Croatians even more.
