RTB Bor starting price: US$ 340mn

People here are always quick to tell me how much influence Kostunica has in the Serbian media; this might well be true, but how it is that Dinkic wasn't dragged over the coals on this one is beyond me. Fair enough, there was an election and the "sale" went through when no-one was technically in office - but as I understand it, Dinkic was Finance Minister before the elections and he is Finance Minister now. The privatisation process in this country is a joke, which leads me to believe that so to is the faculty of economics here.
