State Control Committee Chief: participation in subbotniks is good tradition
Participation in subbotniks (voluntary Saturday working day) is a good tradition – as stated by Vasily Gerasimov, the Chairman of the State Control Committee, as he worked over landscaping the territory of the Minsk Forest Park near the Minsk Sea today, BelTA reports
The labour campaign took place on the territory of about 3 hectares, which was affected by the summer hurricane. “On behalf of the Head of State, we have examined this territory. There were a lot of fallen trees. The President instructed to restore everything here. We did that, but then another hurricane followed. We cleaned everything again and decided to plant trees. It seems to me that it is very symbolic considering that our families come here in spare time,” Mr. Gerasimov said.
Minskers are working today in all districts of the city – landscaping parks and yards, cleaning them from fallen leaves, planting trees and shrubs.
