Prokopiev interview for Darik Radio, 7/17/2013
Host: After yesterday's dark day in the tragedy at the mine "Oranovo" with a beast of a crash that killed young Bulgarians, I hope today's the 34th day of protests is a little better, although it was reported that starving 23 days Sugarev was admitted to hospital, his condition is stable. What happens in the state, Mr. Prokopiev? Is there a chance to calm summer of native unrest or at least ...
Prokopiev: I think people wanted her back. And while there is no visible evidence that at least there is a process to getting the institutions in the form in which they work for their interest directly responsible and accountable, there can be calming.
Prokopiev: I do not think the two have much of a difference because every political cfl bulbs dangers elite that came to power in a completely natural cfl bulbs dangers way strive to create oligarchic control of the resources of citizens, taxpayers can reproduce power and can remain power. This is one way to explain what happened cfl bulbs dangers with the election of Mr. Peevski head of the National Security Agency. Because people saw that for any vote, and for whom to vote, always get the same thing. And it is extremely frustrating not because of the personality of Mr. Peevski as for the establishment and the realization that if a country does not rule of law, no rules, no accountability, no choice and no freedom of the media to control all other shortages then people have nothing. They do not have any civil rights or personal freedom or property.
Prokopiev: I think oligarch everywhere mean the same thing. Oligarchy is a minority that uses the resources of the economy and society to play their power and eventually be able to make dynasties - transfer from generation to generation that power.
Host: Why did not name names oligarchs in Bulgaria? It is clear that we can not put so sharp distinction between business and politics. For political paradise cfl bulbs dangers is hard to dream. Oligarchs had and will have. This zadkulisie hard to destroy it completely. Politics is not just a stage. Yet here why not be named?
Prokopiev: That's even zachenki of oligarchy, some parts of the phenomenon of the oligarchy has in the most prosperous and transparent, with the strongest institutions countries such as New Zealand, Scandinavia, Singapore. Probably there any parts of this problem, but this does not prevent states. cfl bulbs dangers Opposite - oligarchic relations are absolutely oppressed and those who govern, manage a way to create value, people have the opportunity to succeed and grow rich, creates a social welfare and ultimately people are happy.
Prokopiev: I can give you two examples, in which I am involved. cfl bulbs dangers I think I've responded and it was for good. The first example is the introduction of the 10% corporate tax and the introduction of a 10% flat income tax. Then CEIBG and the group about the Board of CEIBG, especially since CEIBG was created with the merger of the Association of Foreign Investors (Bulgarian International Business Association - BIBA) and the Employers Association of Bulgaria, has played a very crucial role in the consultations, lobbying and passage of legislation which put Bulgaria in a brilliant light on the investment map. In the next three years, Bulgaria was the second country in the world in attracting foreign direct investment per unit of gross domestic product in Hong Kong. Hong Kong should normally be excluded because it is the entry point for China. These were the golden years of the Bulgarian Economy - 2006-A, cfl bulbs dangers 2007 and 2008. This is something that anyone lobbying, it was correct cfl bulbs dangers and provided benefits for all participants in the economic and social cfl bulbs dangers life. Another project in which I am directly involved cfl bulbs dangers is the creation of ethical bodies Publishers' Union and the Union of the electronic media. Along with Ognian Zlatev and Mrs. Petkova are founders of the foundation of self-regulation of the media. That did not work so well because most of the media after being acquired or merged, or otherwise subject to political and corporate interests have stopped respecting these professional values, ethics, in which they work. But this is another thing that I personally have made, together with experts from the BBC participated in creating.
There's nothing wrong with people with experience and knowledge to participate in the creation of rules and institutions. The question cfl bulbs dangers is what is legitimate and institutionally. In the first case I have been involved as Chairman of the Confederation, I participated in the second as deputy chairman of the Union of Publishers.
Prokopiev: No such battle. I personally do not wage war with anyone. It is quite simple and deeply misguided attempt to present cfl bulbs dangers spontaneous protests are not controlled and
