The result of consistent state policy. Khizhnyak - on the results of the republican social research

The results of the first part of a large-scale sociological study on topical issues of social and economic development of Belarus were presented in Minsk. His positive results on the air of the talk show “Budni” on the YouTube channel “SBTV” and “Alfa Radio” commented the Chairman of the Republican party of labor and justice Alexander Khizhnyak, writes sb.by.

According to the survey, 71.2% of respondents highly appreciate the overall level of socio-economic development of their settlement, and 82.6% of respondents said that they would not like to move to another settlement within the country. More than 70% of citizens associate their future with their home region and want their children and grandchildren to live there.

Alexander Khizhnyak stressed that the reluctance of people to leave is the result of a consistent long-term state policy. After all, only rural settlements in the republic are more than 23 thousand:

- These communities have never been ignored. People’s moods are largely determined by the ability to live comfortably, build their own housing or have a cottage. This, in my opinion, suggests that we need to continue improving the system. Still, a basic set of services and comfortable living so that people don’t feel the difference between where they live will continue to drive this trend. At the same time, it should be noted that the younger generation is increasingly striving to build houses in rural areas.

More than 63% of respondents expressed a neutral attitude to attracting foreign labor migrants to the country, subject to strict compliance with Belarusian legislation.

- The rules of migration policy should be extremely transparent: a person comes exclusively to work. If the rules are violated, immediate deportation is required. The purpose of a migrant worker is to come and work. Therefore, it is necessary to clearly inform about why the employee arrived, how much he will earn, in what conditions he will live and when he will return to his homeland, he said.

- In recent years, approaches to the financing of medicine and wages have changed. Medical facilities are being reconstructed, new buildings are being built, and equipment is being purchased. The state actively supports specialists on the ground: young doctors in the regions are allocated modern rental housing. When a specialist sees decent living conditions and a modern workplace, positive dynamics are formed and the prestige of the profession grows.
