People trust clothes made in Georgia
Rezonansi writes that few people know that in so-called marketplaces - bazrobas - and shops the clothes sold are made in Georgia. Those who do know this do not hide the fact that they like locally produced clothes and say that they are better quality than the clothes from Turkey or China. Some say that because of financial problems they cannot even go to the shops and mainly their shopping destination is second hand stores.
Recently the ACT marketing research centre carried out polling whose goal was to find out what part of population wears clothes made in Georgia and how they like them. The research showed that Georgian made clothes are popular in society.
Hotel Anaklia covered in water
Kvela Siakhle reports that the newly built hotel Anaklia in the Black Sea resort of Anaklia has flooded with water after heavy rain a few days ago. Reportedly the windows are set wrongly and they could not resist the wind and rain.
Journalist Ilia Chachibaia who was attending a conference in the hotel says that hotel personnel were confused and could not do anything. He says that as it is a low place in front of the sea every morning the basement of the hotel is covered with water. Currently there are no clients in Anaklia hotel and as local population says none of the locals are employed in the hotel and the staff are taken from Zugdidi and other towns.
Rated schools identified
Highly rated schools were identified in the framework of a school rating project initiated by the Ministry of Education and Science, 24 Hours reports. The Minister of Education and Science Dimitri Shashkin met the top ten school principals identified in the rating process and granted them special certificates. Some schools were awarded ten stars. The list of ten star schools is posted on the Ministry’s official website.
The rating process started last year. Rating is mandatory for public schools, while it is voluntary for private schools. Schools should meet several criterions, according to which the number of stars to be granted to a school will be determined.
