Unjust decisions of courts
According to Vladimir Zhurba, Belarusian courts do not get protection for entrepreneurs and contribute to the destruction of the business, bringing unjust decisions, which is a crime on the part of judges. "Complaints against judges in the public prosecutor's office will not be accepted without payment of duty. It turns out, "pay the prosecutor's office, and then she will consider your message about criminal judge," and at the same time, failure to report a crime punishable, - complains entrepreneur. - Prosecutors, courts, regulatory authorities, the police began to commercial organizations that compete to see who will collect more and faster money fines, duties. Moreover, the size of state fees for filing a lawsuit demanding a lot of money, for example, any appeal to the economic court costs around 4-5 million rubles."
According to the Government are not supported by deeds
Navapołacak entrepreneur says that the government only talks about improving the investment climate, but in practice nothing is realized: "Where are the 680 modern enterprises that Prime Sidorsky promised seven years ago, intending to build them in three years? The paper documents the government a lot of the right words, but on the ground nothing is implemented. " Deeply convinced entrepreneur "does not need to spend empty words, it is better to use the power."
Vladimir Zhurba has forty years of experience, he rose from mechanic to the deputy director of the chemical industry of different forms of ownership. Entrepreneur makes fun of government approval of the investor's ability to start business in 10 days: "Is that the only "thieves" way to connect to the electricity and communications."
"Any design work in Belarus require a lot of time and money - says the entrepreneur - and the investor will not invest for a long time to wait for permission to work, he wants to quickly get ready production and profit. Prior to invite foreign investors first need to create conditions for domestic investors - entrepreneurs. In Połacak district in recent years, we have ruined and destroyed dozens of industrial enterprises and construction companies."
Entrepreneur Zhurba own company as an example, Ltd. "Vitorža" showed how officials destroy private businesses, "As a result, eliminated 113 jobs. People have lost their jobs, the state lost taxes in the budget, and all began to live worse."
Proposals of the entrepreneur
Vladimir Zhurba invited the Government seven simple steps to improve the investment climate and the creation of new jobs:
1. One of the leaders of the Executive Committee shall be responsible for the fate of small businesses.
2. Conduct a tax amnesty, by 50% to reduce the number of regulatory bodies.
3. Free to give vacant land for the production of small businesses.
4. Conduct a massive amnesty and release from prison technicians.
5. Simplify the permit system for enterprises, licensing, certification.
6. Remove turnover taxes, the VAT return to make, and not scoring.
