Because of the genial sys administration here in the
university now one of my NNTP servers is only able to read the news,
and the other one only to post. That's why I  can't follow up the 
articles on the normal way.

I 'm a very democratic person and always respect the right of the 
proper opinion, but when I see posted here in this group lies about
the current situation in Bulgaria I can't stay idle.

I read with smile the long paranoic monologues of <ANTHC@CUNYVM.BITNET>,
about gypsies,jews,communists and blow-jobbing /svirki/, but the last
article I could'nt stand:


-THE EXCHANGE RATE OF BULGARIAN NATIONAL BANK IS ...,  KEEP REPEATING

-THE COMMUNISTS ON THE NET.  WHAT EXCHANGE RATE IS THIS?  

This is the free  internal money market exchange rate.

-WHO DETERMINED THE

-WEIGHT OF THE BULGARIAN CURRENCY TOWARD THE MAIN CURRENCIES?

There is a relatively huge interbank and free money market in Bulgaria
now. As I remember the amount of money trade is about $100 000 000 per
day. Uor currency is binded to US$ so all the exchange rates are calculated
through the $.

WHO YOU ARE FOOLING COMRADES?  THE ENTIRE WORLD KNOWS THAT THE BULGARIAN

COMMUNIST MONEY ARE FAKE MONEY.  THEY ARE NOT BACKED BY BULLIONS, STABLE

ECONOMY AND POLITICAL STABILITY.  THE SO CALLED "EXCHANGE RATE" IS INDEED THE

PRISE ON WHICH THE COMMUNISTS IN BULGARIA BUY CURRENCY, BUT THEY DO NOT SELL

THERE IS NO MONEY MARKET IN BULGARIA.


Completely wrong !!!  EVERYBODY CAN NOW sell and buy foreign currency
free. Every bulgarian citizen has a right to bye for his own purpose
foreign currency. Every foreign turist and company can sell their
leva and buy hard currency.



IF SOMEONE WANTS TO BUY WEST CURRENCY IN BULGARIA MEETS A BRICK WALL.

Completely wrong !!! There is a thousends of change offices in Sofia now.
Even the old money black market "Magura street" is still existing.


YOU MIGHT HAVE BILLIONS OF BULGARIAN LEVAS, BUT ALL WILL BE IN VAIN IF YOU

WANT TO EXCANGE THEM AND TO TAKE THE MONEY OUT.  ONLY THE COMMUNISTS ARE

ALLOWED TO TAKE CURRENCY OUT.

Completely wrong !!! If your hard currency is legal e.g. if you have a
bank bill or other document you can take out as much money as you want.

THIS IS THE PRIMARY REASON THE WESTERN INVESTORS DO NOT WANT TO INVEST IN

BULGARIA.  THE WESTERN INVESTORS WANT TO BE AT LIBERTY TO QUIT THEIR INVOLVMENT
AT ANY INSTANCE AND TO MOVE TO A BETTER MARKET IF SUCH ACCURS.
TO GIVE THE BULGARIAN ECONOMY A PUSH THE GOVERNMENT HAVE TO DO WITHOUT DELAY

THE FOLLOWING:

 1. TO EXCHANGE IMMEDIATELY THE PRINTED IN LENINGRAD (USSR) BILLS WITH NEW

    BILLS PRINTED IN COUNTRY WITH GOOD REPUTATION LIKE ENGLAND, FRANCE, GERMANY
    OR THE USA.  


 Actually the new bill of 100 leva is printed in Germany.


 2.  THE BULGARIAN GOVERNMENT TO GARANTEE THE FOREIGN INVESTMENTS AND TO

     WAVE THE TAXES OF THE MAJOR FOREIGN INVESTORS FOR AT LEAST 10 YEARS

     INCOM FOR THE STATE WILL COME FROM THE INCOM TAX ON THE PAY CHECKS.


 Actually there is a special law for foreign investments.
 I think the investments made by foreign companies/persons are tax free
for 5 years or something like that.

     IT WILL BE NOT MUCH, BUT STILL IT IS BETTER THEN NOTHING NOW.  SOON

     THE COMPETITION WILL RAISE THE WAGES IN BULGARIA AND RISE OF THE VALUE OF

     THE NATIONAL CURRENCY WILL BEGIN TO PICK UP ON THE MONEY MARKETS.

     THE BULGARIANS (NOT ONLY COMMUNISTS) WILL BE ABLE TO SAVE AND INVEST.

     THE BULGARIANS THAT WORK FOR FOREIGN COMPANIES WILL LEARN SKILLS THAT

     WILL GIVE CHANCE  TO THE MOST TALENTED TO OPEN THEIR BUSINESSES AND EVEN

     COMPIT WITH THE FOREIGNERS ON THE NATIONAL MARKET, AND IN THE FUTURE ON

     THE INTERNATIONAL MARKETS.  THIS WILL RECREATE THE NATIONAL ELIT SLOTERED

     BY THE COMMUNISTS ON SEPTEMBER 9TH, 1944.  THE MOST CAPABLE AND TALENTED

     WILL BE AT THE TOP, NOT THE MOST OBIDIENT.
