Zelimir Janjic agreed with the company management's proposal to
sell company property to make money for the severance wages,
specifically, to sell plots of land to set up a free zone in
Vukovar.
Borovo's plots have been estimated at some 160 million kuna
(EUR21.3 million) and only 45 million (EUR6 million) is required
for the severance wages.
The HFP is expected to consider this proposal and the government to
stop with the practice according to which there is money for some
but not for others, said Janjic, the HSLS' Vukovar-Srijem County
MP.
