Investment in Belarusian regions to create points of economic growth
Improving the quality of life in the regions of Belarus has become a key topic this week. Medicine, points of growth, employment, higher income. Our state is focused on its people. Meanwhile, the West is sinking deeper and deeper into a social crisis.
In 2023 one of the main drivers of economic growth in Belarus, along with exports, will be the domestic market and investments in the regions. The government pays special attention to eleven cities with a population of 80,000 or more. These regions have great potential - 1.5 million inhabitants, 15% of employees in the economy, who account for about 30% of industrial production and 20% of exports. The government sees the economic development of such regions in the creation of points of economic growth, raising the socio-cultural standard of living.
On December 5, the President discussed the issues of improving the level of medical care in the regions. If "we have a state for the people, then the people should be treated," and it does not matter where they are and what category of citizens they belong to.To eliminate the outflow and shortage of medical personnel it is important to support them financially. Over the past two difficult years, the state has been able to work effectively and accumulate funds to support the level of financial provision for medics, teachers, educators, cultural workers and social services. More than 130 million rubles from the reserve fund of the President of Belarus will be used for these purposes.
