Prime Minister Professor Đuro Macut, MD, DSc, visited several factories in Užice, Sevojno and Lučani, as well as the General Hospital in Požega, today, announcing the construction of a new healthcare centre in Užice.
Macut stated that the Užice Health Centre provides healthcare for almost 300,000 residents, has three general hospitals and ten health centres, as well as a large number of health stations and outpatient clinics, employing approximately 3,800 people.
He underscored the need for continuous improvement of working conditions and medical equipment, and recalled that in the previous period, significant funds had been invested in the healthcare system of this region in modern diagnostic equipment, including magnetic resonance imaging, scanners and other radiological and endoscopic devices.
The Prime Minister said that the General Hospital in Požega is an example of a well-organised and maintained healthcare institution and that the state will continue to invest in the development of the healthcare system throughout Serbia.
Together with Minister of Defence Bratislav Gašić, Macut visited the factories Prvi Partizan in Užice and Valjaonica Bakra in Sevojno, which employ a large number of citizens.
He discussed development plans and investments in the coming period with the management of Valjaonica Bakra and emphasised that this factory contributes greatly to the country’s GDP through exports and that its development is very important for strengthening Serbia’s industrial and economic capacities.
The Prime Minister also visited the facilities of the Industrial Complex Livnica in Guča, where he emphasised that it is important for such industrial giants to survive.
He pointed out that this company is of great importance for the Serbian economy, since it employs more than 160 workers and sells a significant part of its production to foreign markets.
This shows that domestic industry has the potential to be competitive beyond the borders of the country, and therefore it is important for the state and industry to be partners in creating better conditions for business, emphasised Macut.
