He is scheduled to meet with mill directors and local officials to discuss energy efficiency.
In Zaporizhzhya, Victor Yushchenko has already visited Motor Sich. MS Director Vyacheslav Bohuslayev showed him aviation engines that have no analogues. The President also saw consumer goods, agrarian and medical equipment manufactured at the enterprise. He was then shown industrial equipment that helps save energy.
Yushchenko particularly wanted to see high-tech devices. He said he would soon meet with directors of all companies developing high technologies to discuss ways to coordinate their activity and formulate a development strategy.
“The world will win tomorrow with high technologies,” he opined.
The Head of State said government should support the national producer by helping our products enter international markets. He noted that Ukraine had enough resources to advance. Yushchenko reiterated that in 2005 Ukraine had sold more aircrafts than in the past fourteen years.
One of the world’s biggest enterprises, Motor Sich produces 69 types and modifications of equipment for 88 kinds of aircrafts. Its engines are used in military and civil aviation in more than 100 countries.
Zaporizhzhya Deputy Governor Oleksandr Fin said the project would be launched in the first quarter of 2006. The system will monitor the amount of atmospheric discharges. This issue is really important for Zaporizhzhya where it grew from 121 thousand tons in 2001 to 146 thousand tons in 2004.
The authors of the project think it will help considerably reduce pollution and essentially improve the monitoring by applying modern technologies. Zaporizhzhya Governor Evhen Chervonenko said the local authorities intended to install a special indicator board displaying the discharge data. The availability of such information would help the local community to more actively demand that directors of environmentally unsafe enterprises should introduce new technologies, Chervonenko remarked.
