International Journal of Latest Engineering and Management Research (IJLEMR) ISSN: 2455-4847 www.ijlemr.com || Volume 03 - Issue 02 || February 2018 || PP. 96-104 Conditions and valorization of tourism in Shtip, an old town in the Republic of Macedonia Nikola V. Dimitrov1, Simona Atanasova2 1(Faculty of Tourism and Business Logistics, Goce Delchev University – Shtip, Republic of Macedonia) 2(Student of the second cycle studies at the Faculty of Tourism and Business Logistics, Goce Delchev University – Shtip, Republic of Macedonia) Abstract: For a scientists is a challenge to explore the beginning and the course of tourism in smaller cities. The emergence of tourism in Shtip is from a recent date. However, through the example of tourism in Shtip, we identify two historical periods: the preturism and the period of tourism. Thus, the first period lasts until the appearance of the first hotel in 1912, and the second from the middle of the twenties of the 20th century.Serious data on the tourism in Shtip are obtained from the end of the 1950's onwards.The analysis is based on primary and secondary data sources. From the analysis we learn that the tourism in Shtip in recent years has been growing with real development perspectives of diverse tourist offer and production. Keywords: Conditions, Perspectives, Republic of Macedonia, Shtip, Valorization. 1. INTRODUCTION City of Stip is the largest city in the eastern part of the Republic of Macedonia (RM).The city is located between the heights of the hills of Isar (450 m above sea level), Meri (420 m above sea level) and Cumlac (peak Klisse Bair 591 m above sea level), and extends along the banks of the river Otinja (2 km) and the river Bregalnica (5 km). -

1 EDUCATION REFORM in BULGARIA a Study in Failure
1 EDUCATION REFORM IN BULGARIA A study in failure Evgenii Dainov Introduction Recent experience, as well as the increasingly voluminous literature on “delayed” reform, tell researchers and reformers something relatively simple, yet disturbing. Many countries have started or will be starting reforms; quite a number of these countries have failed, are failing or will fail in this attempt. Some will fail roundly. Others will fail partially and will move along with a heavy limp, never certain when system failure may occur. Usually, the literature deals with issues of economic reform1 and finds the culprit in politics. This makes research applicable to other fields, where politics is paramount and particularly, “second generation” reforms, such as education, which require restructuring of institutions – who, of course, resist it. Even partial failures here have significant consequences. The awareness that something was terribly wrong with Bulgarian education came only after 2000, after a decade of self-congratulatory myths and in the face of consequences, which could not be easily explained away. First, a mismatch between skills attained and skills needed became obvious. Employer organisations complained that they were increasingly unable to find Bulgarian nationals to fill mid- level managerial positions, and were forced to import staff from abroad at significant cost. A representative study, carried out by Alpha Research, a major polling agency, in 2004 revealed that only 38 per cent of employers in Bulgaria thought that the education system provided the young with the skills they were looking for. 2 Second, preformance levels dropped. A series of international studies revealed, by 2003 that, while Bulgarians performed well at the level of primary education (1-4th grade), after that figures were little short of disastrous. -

EUROPEAN COMMISSION DIRECTORATE GENERAL XXl CUSTOMS AND INDIRECT TAXATION SAMCOMM Brussels, 26 October 1995 RESTRICTED DISTRIBUTION • United Nations sanctions against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro) EU/OSCE Sanctions Assistance Missions (SAM) Thirty-second SAMCOMM situation report (period 7 September to 23 October 1995) SUMMARY Overall the sanctions are still being implemented effectively, especially since the Romanian authorities have taken extremely efficient action against the·fuel smuggling on the Danube and have succeeded in eradicating these sanctions violations. There continues to be heavy traffic of goods into and out of Serbia across the country's border to Fonner Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. During the reporting period a number of consignments of foreign-made cigarettes have been exported to Serbia. In the other direction, approximately 10 000 tons of frozen fruits have been exported from Serbia to Fonner Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. The frozen fruits are considered to be destined for reexport. They provide a large financial resource for F.R.Y. in violation of the sanctions. The EU/OSCE Sanctions Co-ordinator has addressed a letter to the FYROM Government congratulating them on the re-opening of the FYROM-Greek border and asking for full implementation of the sanctions regime. There is a need to eliminate the risks of violation of financial sanctions by off-shore companies in Cyprus which may be owned and controlled by businessmen resident and operating in F.R.Y. The smuggling into Montenegro of fuel products from the north of Albania continues in spite of the efforts of the authorities and SAM Albania. -
Annual Report of Bulgarian Biodiversity Foundation 2008
BBF Annual Report 2008 ANNUAL REPORT OF BULGARIAN BIODIVERSITY FOUNDATION 2008 1 BBF Annual Report 2008 CONTEXT The main topic of the political analysis at the end of the year was that in 2008 nothing special happened in Bulgaria and this is the good news. According to us many things happened in Bulgaria this year and no one of them is good news. 2008 was “the year of the scandals” with no political act or political figure unconnected to corruption, infringement of the laws or negligence of the undertaken commitments. Our second year as an EU member was marked with the sign of the increasing discontent from European Parliament, as well as the Bulgarian citizens. The European Commission asked Bulgaria to freeze several thousands millions euros funding under the European Union's pre-accession programmes SAPARD and PHARE. The only reaction of the government was to accuse EC in double standard. The attempts of the Prime-minister Stanishev to convince EC of the state efforts were shattered from the unprecedented and public accusation of corruption made by Mr. Barroso – “I should tell you that we will not allow some people to play political games with the Euro funds.” In the field of environment and applying of the European environmental legislation there is some good news. Scientists and NGOs could be proud with the evaluation of the EC for the establishment of Natura 2000 network with its 114 Special Protection Areas (SPAs) in accordance with the Bird Directive and 229 Sites of Community Importance (SCI) in accordance with the Habitat Directive.
