Macedonia's anti-crisis measures may create 10,000 jobs
Macedonia's anti-crisis measures may create 10,000 jobs, 6 July 2012 Friday 9:22
Friday, 6 July 2012
A dozen measures to be implemented over the course of the summer are expected to pack a punch for Macedonia's employment sector -- four of them alone are directed at creating up to 10,000 jobs.
"The measures are carefully selected and adequately projected at a time when there are cuts at some items in the budget. They are realistic and doable," Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski said.
Macedonia has a workforce of about 950,000 people, but more than 30% are unemployed. Experts project that by implementing the anti-crisis programme, 8,000 people will be employed initially and an additional 2,000 later on, for which the government has secured 13m euros from the state budget.
"This is a combination of developmental and social measures. They are undertaken when the budget is being rebalanced, because that way they can be implemented [in a] timely [fashion]," Tome Nenovski, an economics professor at the American College in Skopje and former vice governor of Macedonia's National Bank, told SETimes.
"It is of particular importance for the funds to be applied quickly," Nenovski added.
Of the four jobs-creating measures, one targets employment at businesses opened with credits for self-employment and accrediting.
The second targets long-term employment in co-operation with municipalities for experienced workers over the age of 55.
The third would match 1,000 younger workers, up to the age of 27, with a prominent employer, but they will have to undergo training first.
The fourth measure would employ 1,000 to 1,500 people in agriculture. "The government will secure 850 hectares of state land in 24 regions for people who qualify. Assigning land will be done by using a point system via a public call," Gruevski said.
The Association of Farmers of Macedonia described this as a step in the right direction, as it will boost domestic food production and reduce imports.
"The winner will not only not pay rent, but during the first year will receive a 357-euro subsidy as assistance to start a family business," Veljo Tantarov, president of the association, told SETimes.
"The measures go counter to the defensive stand by governments which usually implement austerity measures and cuts here, including for development support. The Macedonian government is making an effort to find money for development support, that to the delight of the business community, will directly end up in businesses, agriculture and the economy as a whole," Nenovski told SETimes.
By comparison, 150m euros obtained from the European Investment Bank have been used by 712 companies that created 3,200 jobs. An additional 35m euros were used as turnover capital to help firms overcome economic difficulties in 25 municipalities.
Under the new plan, "By efficiently utilising the allocated budget funds, the number of created jobs can be doubled," Economy Minister Valjon Sarachini told SETimes.
Nearly 11m euros from the Macedonian Development Bank will be used to support firms that purchase, process and export agricultural products.
As of yet, no such anti-crisis measures have been undertaken elsewhere in the region, but experts say it is evident the EU crisis will force governments to seek direct solutions to reduce economic stagnation.
Serbia's Chamber of Commerce is preparing at present draft measures for the 2012-2016 period to send to the government for review.
"Investing in energy, agriculture, electronics, and infrastructure are key areas for economic growth and we must accentuate them," Milos Bugarin, president of the chamber, told Serbian media. Such measures would necessitate a new Labour Law in addition to lowering administrative barriers and required funds for employees.

EBRD exits from Macedonian wine producer Tikves
05/07/2012 04:36 (1 Day 01:49 minutes ago)
The FINANCIAL -- The EBRD has sold its shares in Tikves a.d., one of the leading winery in FYR Macedonia, to the majority shareholder, M6 Investments private equity fund.
The FINANCIAL - EBRD exits from Macedonian wine producer Tikves
The EBRD became a minority shareholder in Tikves in 2008, just before the financial crisis, with a €6 million equity investment. In 2009 the Bank extended a €2.5 million working capital loan to the company, through which the EBRD will continue its relationship with Tikves.
Through its investment, the EBRD helped Tikves winery to pursue its development strategy, modernise its production process and further improve the quality of its product range.
“The EBRD is delighted to have been able to stand behind Tikves and we are now pleased that the company will remain with a sound investor like M6 Investments. We remain strongly committed to supporting the growth of the Macedonian corporate sector and to helping boost the competitiveness of local companies on the domestic market and in the wider region,” said Elena Urumovska, EBRD.
As the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development reported, since it began operations in FYR Macedonia, the EBRD has invested close to €950 million in the country’s economy through projects in the corporate, financial, infrastructure and energy sectors. The EBRD funds have attracted additional investments worth €1 billion from other sources.

Over 740 million denars of subsides paid to vine growers
Friday, 06 July 2012
The state has paid the subsidies to vine growers and wineries in full. The Government has paid over 740 million denars to 23.500 farmers.
"More than 740 million denars have been paid to vine growers and wineries. Farmers and vine growers in the future can count on the government's support, because the finances are not only significant for vine growers and wineries, but also for the economy in general," Vice PM and Finance Minister Zoran Stavreski stated Friday in Negotino.
At a meeting with Negotino businessmen, the FinMin urged them to use the 100 million euros provided through the European Investment Bank.
"I urged them to withdraw finances from the 100 million euros provided through the European Investment Bank. I believe the funds will help companies to endure the new European crisis," Stavreski stated.
Long-term measures taken by the government were also discussed at the meeting as well as the gasification project in Macedonia.
Minister Stavreski said that the Russian market offered a huge potential for export of Macedonian agricultural products, adding that export had been significantly bolstered in recent years.

[h=3]PIPELINE-BAU[/h]
[h=1]Auch Mazedonien will sich South Stream anschließen[/h][h=2]Nach seinem jüngsten Besuch in Russland bestätigt Finanzminister Stavreski den Plan, dass die russische Gaspipeline "South Stream" eine weitere Abzweigung nimmt - nach Mazedonien.[/h]
Mazedonien wird sich als ein weiteres Land der Erdgasleitung "South Stream" anschließen, die russisches Gas unter Umgehung der Ukraine nach Westeuropa bringen soll.
Finanzminister Zoran Stavreski erklärte gegenüber mazedonischen Medien, dass sein Land von russischer Seite den Entwurf eines entsprechenden Abkommens erhalten habe. Der mazedonische Finanzminister nahm am Dienstag in Nischnij Nowgorod an einem mazedonisch-russischen Wirtschaftstreffen teil.
Vom Schwarzen Meer nach Norditalien
Der Bau von South Stream soll von der russischen Schwarzmeerküste der Region Krasnodar im Raum von Anapa noch heuer beginnen. Die Route der Gaspipeline wird durch das Schwarze Meer verlaufen und über die Türkei mit Anschluss an die bulgarische Küste bei Varna führen.
Danach soll das russische Gas durch Bulgarien, Serbien, Ungarn und Slowenien bis nach Tarvisio in Norditalien gelangen. Bisher waren auch Abzweigungen vom Hauptstrang nach Griechenland, Kroatien und nach Bosnien-Herzegowina vereinbart. Dazu soll nun offenbar auch eine Abzweigung nach Mazedonien kommen.
Die Kosten des Bauvorhabens werden auf bis zu 25 Mrd. Euro geschätzt. Gazprom hält am Projekt 50 Prozent der Anteile, der italienische Energiekonzern ENI 20 Prozent, Wintershall und der französische Konzern Electricite de France (EdF) besitzen jeweils 15 Prozent. Die Fertigstellung von South Stream wird für Ende 2015 erwartet. (pm/apa)
