Opinion Yeltsin`s call for ousters doesn`t help anyone

The Vladivostok News 09/18/97 02:29 PM
It is unrealistic to expect that directors in the defense industry immediately be replaced with leaders more suited to the task, as President Boris Yeltsin demanded earlier this summer. Clearly Vice-Governor Vladimir Kolesnichenko recognizes that fact, and seems to want to work with directors, instead of against them. Still, krai officials should not have to take on the burden of responsibility when federal officials make such demands, particularly when it is obvious that those demands cannot be met for a long time, if at all.

Opinion Logging: time to shout

The Vladivostok News 09/18/97 02:28 PM
The recent conferences on conserving the Sikhote-Alin biosphere prove there are people in Primorye who care about what they will leave for their children. No one disputes the serious economic condition of the krai, with the closing of factories, late pay and growing social problems. But sustaining the land for future generations is just as important as fixing roads. What’s more, a variety of native peoples live off Sikhote-Alin’s rich natural resources. Russia’s constitution, under Article 69, guarantees them fair treatment and aid.
