GOVERNMENT

Russia's maritime province, has found economic progress to be not as straightforward as it hoped when first emerging from the cold waters of the Soviet era. These initial expectations were probably not entirely realistic. In addition to obvious geographical advantages and certain high-quality infrastructure particularly with regards to its ports, the region also had a lot of Soviet-era baggage that weighed it down. However, as a result of some hard work and clear objectives, the province has recently been making some real and identifiable progress, everything from a new business centre and hotel in Vladivostok to progress in clarifying the legal basis underpinning the Nakhodka Free Economic Zone. The principal goal of the department is to create conditions favourable for social and economic development of the territory by working out specific programs together with branch departments and committees.
