The main attractions of the country are its strategic geographic location, a generous investment incentive programme, and last but not least, a relatively cheap but highly qualified and skilled labour. But has not cheap and skilled labour become a journalist cliché, especially concerning the much needed language skills, an area heavily neglected by the former Communist regime? One of the investors who came to the Czech Republic in the early days of its transition to a free market economy is Accenture, a global management and technology organization providing services in strategic and information consulting, systems integration and change management in 47 countries around the world. It employs 200 professionals in the consulting business in the Czech Republic, and about a year ago the company started a new operation focusing on outsourcing. Many of its clients here in the Czech Republic are multinational companies or Czech companies with a foreign element present.

HotelsBulgaria.com Business Business Profile: Bulgaria is among one of the most industrialised former Eastern Bloc countries: the main industries based in Sofia are machinery and electronics, car assembly, textiles and food products. During the period between 1989 and 1997, political instability and economic collapse caused Bulgaria to lag behind other Central European nations in terms of economic growth and reform but today the business environment in Sofia and in Bulgaria as a whole is improving - GDP growth was 5% in 2000. Nevertheless, inflation and unemployment rates are still high - 10.1% inflation and 18% unemployment in 2000. The average monthly salary is Lv170 (£55). The Bulgarian government is keen to attract foreign investors and has passed new laws to protect and assist foreign businesses. Many neighbouring European countries, as well as the USA, are now investing here, attracted primarily by a highly qualified and relatively cheap labour force. Bulgaria is working hard to align its laws with European Union Standards, in the hope of gaining EU membership. The

The same way individuals make everyday choices based on facts, governments need efficient statistical systems for evidence-based decision making and policy orientation. Increasingly, statistics are seen as a public good which all stakeholders in society should have access to and should benefit from; links between statistics and good governance are becoming stronger.
