178-Bulgarians Take More Loans in Foreign Currencies
from Guide Bulgaria - Podcasts powered by Odiogo July 24, 2008
Bulgarians have taken the largest percentage of foreign-currency loans in the world, Erste Banks said in a report. Local experts say that euro-denominated loans are more popular than those in levs despite the higher price because the foreign currency in considered more stable. Lending in Bulgaria zoomed more than 80 pct in 2007 compared to 2006, according to the report. Companies have taken 77 pct loans. Further increases are expected this year. For instance, mortgage lending is seen up by a whopping 88 pct due to the construction boom and the relatively lucrative interest rates. Yet banks are expected to further tighten lending requirements and hike rates over the coming years. Source: Netinfo (27/06) Be FIRST, get all the latest NEWS about Bulgaria Property Market!

177-House Mortgages in Bulgaria To Gain 88 Pct till 2010
from Guide Bulgaria - Podcasts powered by Odiogo July 24, 2008
The growth of the Bulgarian banking sector is fueled by increasing mortgage lending showed a report of research company RNCOS. Over one-third of the loans Bulgarian banks gave out in 2006 were spent on home purchases. Mortgage lending is seen swelling by 88 pct in the period 2007 to 2010. From 2004 to 2006 it surged 87 pct due to the market liberalization and the low interest rates, PR Minds explained. The Bulgarian housing sector has been thriving in the past years as banks offer numerous housing loan opportunities. The property sector generated over 40 pct of the foreign capital in Bulgaria. In 2007 it attracted 26 pct more investments then the previous year. The steady pace will keep up trough 2008 according to RNCOS.

176- Raiffeisenbank Bulgaria Lens 1.63 Bln Levs to Small Firms
from Guide Bulgaria - Podcasts powered by Odiogo July 24, 2008
Bulgarian Raiffeisenbank had given 1.63 bln levs worth of loans to small and medium companies by March 2008, up 64.6 pct year-on-year. The bank has fully absorbed a 15 mln euro credit line from KfW which has funded 569 investment projects worth 19.9 mln euro. Interview - Sixty Percent of Bulgarians Keep Savings in Banks, Says Societe Generale Expressbank Saving Products Manager Anna Koedjikova. Competition on the Bulgarian saving products market is intensifying all the time bringing a wider range and a higher return for customers. On the other hand, Bulgarians are improving their financial awareness and tightening their requirements for banking products. Thirdly, the growing living standard, the high confidence in the banking system and the rapid growth of client numbers are giving a boost and deposits. Customers have been lately withdrawing from some riskier alternative investment products such as real estate and the stock exchange. This has helped household deposits gain some 30 pct in the year to March 2008. Therefore the Bulgarian market offers more potential for attracting people s savings. Bulgarians keep some 60 pct of their savings in banks compared to only 25 pct for the other EU countries. This will increase the popular mutual funds, insurance and pension insurance. The tight reserve requirement imposed by the central bank is also impacting on the market. Source: Dnevnik, PIX Be FIRST, get all the latest NEWS about Bulgaria Property Market!

Donna Storter Comments On Glades County
from Southwest Florida Online - Sunday Morning News via Talkr.com July 24, 2008
County In Dire Economic Situation Say Storter - Gambling, Potential For Growth? MOORE HAVEN, FL. -- Glades Commissioner Donna Storter Long this week sent the following to Governor Charlie Crist's special assistant Marureen Jaeger: Thank you for attending the Glades County Commission meeting yesterday and your interest in and concern for Glades County�s situation as a Special Representative of Gov. Charlie Crist. Glades County has dire economic needs/situations that are NOT a result of the impending SugarWater deal. Just in time for our budget workshop, our Property Appraiser gave us the ad valorem revenue figure of $6,379,253 for 2008-2009. No typo here. That�s less than 7 million! It just seems to me that while we have the sharp attention of Governor Crist and his staff, this is an opportune time to address ways Glades County can mitigate anticipated negative affects of that deal while alleviating some existing problems too. I was disappointed that so much of the meeting was devoted to pessimistically lamenting the past without addressing the opportunities for the future of Glades County. We must look forward, not back. Things will change and it�s our choice if we want to help direct the change Though I greatly appreciate and support agriculture and will endeavor to work for its survival and growth. I do recognize, as Mary Helen Blakeslee pointed out, that we must diversify our economy and tax base. As I told you I would, I�m listing here for you the points I prepared for my presentation yesterday (with some elaboration) and probably not in the order I brought them up yesterday, nor in any priority. Have SFWMD consider granting to Glades County all the development rights of all property owned by SFWMD, including past acquisitions. Without the 5600 +/- acres of US Sugar land in Glades County, SFWMD already owns 13,150 acres in Glades County. Glades County receives $24.83 annually for PILOT. That should increase with the recent changes in legislation and the purchase of 1400+/- acres WMD bought last year. However, residential density units on those properties could be utilized in other developments and would allow density clustering. They definitely have value and could be declared surplus and auctioned, or granted to the County for distributio In February 2008, we learned that a prominent Glades County Family, the Weeks Family, had bequeathed $6 million to the UF College of Veterinary Medicine, and was eligible for matching funds raising the total to $12 million. Can OTTED explore the possibility of UF/ IFAS creating a veterinarian training facility in Glades County, and help provide bovine veterinarian services to the areas ranchers? Right now, there is no large-animal vet residing in and practicing in Glades County and currently, our agriculture extension agent is only a 4-H coordinator. According to Florida Dept of Health�s �Community Health Assessment Resource Tool Set, (C.H.A.R.T.S) information that was made available May 2008, about 15% of Glades County population is below the poverty level. The health profile shows we are in the 4th quartile for deaths from heart disease, cancer, HIV/Aids, 4th quartile for birth to unwed mothers, 4th quartile for late or no prenatal care, and 4th quartile for infant deaths after age of 1 month. (Unwed mothers mostly black, but infant deaths mostly white.) We are in the 4th quartile for adults who were unable to get health care and 4th quartile of adults with no health coverage. Our public health department is understaffed and underfunded working from a crowded, outdated facility in dire need of replacement, not just remodeling. (Mr. Taylor told me you later requested a visit to the facility yesterday and saw this conditions we discussed.) How can OTTED help Glades County�s health needs? We hear that statewide there is a shortage of trained nurses. Why not build a nursing school in Glades County along with a public health clinic for their internship? We have no pharmacy, so why not build a pharmacology college here, including a dispensing pharmacy? We have one medical doctor residing in and practicing in Glades County; no dentist, no optometrist, no chiropractor, and no medical services clinic other than the woefully inadequate public health department that you visited. It is astounding to me how the public health staff operates as well as it does in the conditions and financial limitations they endure. They are VERY dedicated people, serving people with real health needs. The county-owned Industrial Park near Moore Haven needs $$$ to develop and market itself. The mortgage is $800k, and we don�t have enough funds to finish the engineering, design and infrastructure installation and can barely make the mortgage payments. Even with enterprise programs and tax abatements, without proper development we really have little to offer but bare land. High speed/broadband internet access is not available in much of our rural county. Today�s technology is a basic requirement for most commerce, industry and normal business operations. FHREDI has been working on this already, why not step up with some grant $$ to providers and finish the job. Determine what new state-funded and federal-funded projects, such a Veterans Hospital, FEMA distribution center for SW Florida, DOT work center, will soon be needed in Florida, and site them in Glades County. SFWMD has pledged $5 million to clear/clean Pearce Canal, Moore Haven Canal, and other access points to Lake Okeechobee, to be expended over the next 5 years. Why wait? That itself could be a giant economic stimulus in a one-year period. We need to clean the outlet/mouth of Harney Pond Canal, deepen Dyess Ditch access, and restore the campground at Indian Prairie Canal and build more and expand existing boat ramps, add paid attendants. These are GIANT eco-tourism stimulants. Glades County already has a long-term lease on Curry Island on the western edge of Lake Okeechobee restricted for recreational use, with no funds to develop the natural wildlife habitat for eco-tourism such as birding, or fishing or duck hunting. Those three recreation industries bring BIG $$$$ into areas prepared for and inviting to them. Glades County has more shoreline on Lake Okeechobee than the other counties, and more frontage on the Caloosahatchee River than the other counties. It has great eco-tourism potential!! Lake Hicpochee may have development potential, either for hydrating and restoration for eco-tourism projects or part of the proposed inland port, as it is only 3 miles southwest of Moore Haven. This was on my list but Tracy Whirls actually brought it up. We have an eco-tourism development, Port LaBelle Marina on Caloosahatchee River, is battling state agencies for final permitting. Help could be granted in expediting the process, resulting in significantly addition to our tax base. DCA has also put up roadblocks for other important development considerations in Glades County, such as rural land stewardship programs. West Glades Elementary needs to expand to senior high school. When students complete the 8th grade there, their parents withdraw them from Glades County school system and enroll them in other county high schools or private schools rather than put them on school transportation for 3-4 hours per day to go to Moore Haven High School. We have 200 acres for expansion there and just built a new gym. The City-County Public Works Authority is out of funds for the next needed phase of expanding municipal water and wastewater services to greater Moore Haven area. In addition, Buckhead Ridge in the northeastern part of the county needs wastewater treatment system just as badly because there are more septic tanks on canals leading to Lake Okeechobee up there, than there are in the City of Moore Haven. We must do our part to prevent pollution, but we need funding. Of primary importance in the giant scheme of things, Glades County needs legal counsel expertise in water resources, land development and tax law. SFWMD staff has indicated willingness to fund this for us. After the meeting the Chair of the Glades District School Board called me and said after talking with Water Management staff he has decided to have the School Board solicit such funding for counsel. So far, the one single idea brought to me that seems have the most potential for large economic growth for Glades County, is legalized gambling. I will say it is not my first choice of revenue options, but I have yet to hear of a higher-paying plan! A later thought came that support at the ballot box may be garnered if we promote the concept that a portion of the revenue Glades County receives could/would be encumbered to support Northern Everglades restoration projects. Why not have Gov. Crist as our spokesperson for this? And OTTED funding the campaign for voter approval?

153-How To Keep Money from Inflation in Bulgaria
from Guide Bulgaria - Podcasts powered by Odiogo July 23, 2008
With the inflation hovering around us as much as 15 pct, there is no fund, deposit or another asset that does not promise a higher interest rate. Deposit interest rates are gliding up and banks are offering an annual return of 6.0 pct (with various strings attached). Shares on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange have been plunging for as long as nine months and the main indices are 40 pct below their peaks. The property market in Bulgaria is showing signs it would be more selective and experts do not write off the possibility for stagnation or even fall of the prices in certain segments. Financial experts themselves are at a loss as to what is best to invest in. Capital weekly invited some of the leading banks and brokerages to offer specific investment portfolios that can beat the inflation rate. The ECB recently raised it s key rate by 0.25 points to 4.25 pct for the first time since the start of the crisis. This is impacting on the Bulgarian banking market, where the race is tightening for resources are foreign parent companies are batting liquidity problems. The rates of euro-denominated loans and some 1.0 percentage point lower than those of local-currency loans. And yet neither is enough to cover the inflation. But for the crisis, the growth is giving the developing markets an edge. Most analysts agree that the emerging markets will suffer milder consequences from the crisis than the USA and the UK. For instance, Raiffeisen Capital Management, which runs 39 mln euro worth of assets, says the eurozone s GDP will slump to 1.7 pct and edge down to some 7.0 pct from last year in the emerging markets.

Cattle Drive Through Okeechobee
from Southwest Florida Online - Sunday Morning News via Talkr.com July 22, 2008
American Cowboy Day Celebration In City Of Okeechobee OKEECHOBEE, FL - Normally reserved for vehicular traffic, State Road 70 in Okeechobee will be the scene of a cattle drive from Flagler Park East to the Okeechobee County Agri-Civic Center on Saturday, July 26 beginning at 10:00 a.m. Spectators will see Okeechobee's "Big Boss", Pete Clemons, lead local ranchers carrying flags as they drive some fifty head of cattle down the three-and-a-half mile stretch of road. The arrival of the cattle at the Agri-Civic Center will kick off a busy day of activities there, including a big Ranch Rodeo with area ranches competing for the top two rankings and a chance to participate in the Florida Ranch Rodeo in Kissimmee the first weekend in October. Many area ranchers will compete for bragging rights as to whose team is the best, says Matt Pearce, Cattlemen's Association president. The events are exciting, and they show the entire community the kinds of basic skills that keep our ranches going. Some of the real-life ranch activities in the competition will include ranch doctoring, bronc riding, wild cow milking, team branding and a stampede race. The Ranch Rodeo will be open to spectators without charge, sponsored by the Okeechobee Cattlemen's Association and local merchants through donations to help defray expenses. The Ranch Rodeo events are scheduled to begin inside the Okeechobee Agri-Civic Center at 2:00 p.m. that afternoon. Other activities after the Cattle Drive will include an 11:00 a.m. Backyard BEEF B-B-Q contest, Florida cowboy storytelling, whip popping demonstrations, art by the Cowboy Artists Association of Florida, various children's events, plus food, entertainment and fun for the whole family sponsored by Okeechobee Main Street. The events are being held as a part of the National Day of the American Cowboy, proclaimed by President George W. Bush in 2005 for the fourth Saturday in July. Last year's event in Okeechobee was the first such celebration east of the Mississippi. Okeechobee's Main Street will coordinate the many National Day of the American Cowboy festivities outside the arena, to help celebrate the proud heritage of Okeechobee's cattlemen and the contributions made by Florida cowboys and cowgirls to the cattle industry nationwide. Main Street considers July 26 as a Heritage Festival for the cattle industry, says Toni Doyle, executive director of Main Street. Our cattlemen are an important part of the history and growth of this community. We encourage everyone to participate in the day's festivities.
