PROBLEMS WHICH CAN BE SOLVED?

Belgrade, December 18 2008

Such standpoint has been confirmed during the conversation with employees in ‘’Bratstvo’’, Subotica, which has been on a strike for more than 2 weeks, as well as with employees of ATB ‘’Sever’’, Subotica, facing the need of the majority owner to reduce the manpower.

The representatives of the EMF, IMF and German Metal Workers Trade Union (IGM) visited Serbian Industrial Trade Union (SITU)
SERBIAN INDUSTRIAL TRADE UNION ORIENTED TOWARD THE FUTURE

Belgrade, December 19 2008
The escalation of conflict between the UBU ’’Nezavisnost’’ and SMWBU ’’Nezavisnost’’, now Serbian Industrial Trade Union, invited representatives of the EMF, IMF and IGM to Serbia in order that they convinced themselves of the dramatic situation the members of the SITU have been going through. The attack on the autonomy and democratic principle of unionist activities arose in the attack on the property created by the MWBU members. Such situation, unrecorded in the history of Serbian trade union movement, was made possible by the Ministry of Labor and Social Policy, through authorizing Slavko Vlaisavljevic to represent the MWBU ’’Nezavisnost’’, although he is neither a member of Metal Workers Trade Union nor legitimately and legally elected person by the VI Congress of MWBU ’’Nezavisnost’’. This Ministry’s Decision reflects a deep political background and readiness for cooperation expressed by B. Canak and current political authorities insisting on being ’’socially responsible’’.

To the Socio-Economic Council of the Republic of Serbia, President of Serbia, Prime Minister of Serbia, Parliament Member Clubs, Serbian Parliament
A MEDICINE OR POISON ?

Belgrade, December18 2008
Pleading of the highest government officials and Serbian Government for the implementation of saving measures on all levels, reached the paramount and has been accepted by citizens, i.e. voters. The Prime Minister especially stressed ‘’minor, but significant savings’’. How can something be minor and significant, and not be a medicine or poison? Possible proposal of Serbian Government, associated with saving, can be loans. Ruined Serbian economy has been offered 50 billion Dinars of stimulating funds in 2009, which would enable us an average standard of living in 2009. If one should save, then a personal example of the SEC members would be a precious guidance to all of us. Citizens and employees would say: ‘’If those of the SEC can save, then we can save too.’’ How can this be realized ?
