ZAGREB, Oct 27 (Hina) - The Croatian Association of the Unemployed (UNH) will call on all unemployed people to vote for a party with a serious employment programme at the upcoming parliamentary elections. If such a party does not
exist, members of the Association will most probably abstain from voting, the UNH said at a news conference Wednesday. The unemployed still do not know for whom to vote, UNH president Fjodor Kuzmanic said, adding all parties were promising "sand castled". If parties continue with such behaviour until elections, the UNH will call on the unemployed to abstain from voting, although they are aware that not voting is not the best solution, he said. Tin Gazivoda from the Glass '99 organisation, which is leading a campaign for the voting of as many people as possible, stressed that the threat with abstinence could be an efficient tool for achieving goals with political parties.

(UNH) will call on all unemployed people to vote for a party with a

the threat with abstinence could be an efficient tool for achieving
goals with political parties.
All parties should express their views on unemployment, the
currently biggest Croatian problem, through concrete programmes,
Gazivoda said.
