100 thousand new jobs needed for dual education, said members of the Bulgarian Industrial Association during a discussion in parliament on measures against youth unemployment, Sega daily reports. Among the proposals are having an early career guidance in secondary education, developed career centers at universities, as well as incentives for employers who hire young university graduates.

Under the title "Concept to be drawn up wihtin six months on how to use Vitosha" , 24 Chasa reports that the Sofia city councilors have set up a special commission that will seek solutions to the problems of access, transport, infrastructure and facilities in the national park. An analysis will be made of the privatization contract and whether the "Vitosha Ski" company complies with it.

Bulgaria will have its first factory for aircraft parts, informs Capital Daily. The American company Woodward will invest over 9 million leva over the next three years in an enterprise for aviation parts for Airbus, Boeing and other global manufacturers.

During the first month of the year, only 44.9 mln euros in foreign direct investment have entered Bulgaria, Sega daily reports. This is a far weaker result compared with January 2015, when Bulgaria attracted 323.4 mln euros, according to the Bulgarian National Bank. So again it turns out that Bulgarians working abroad sent more money at home than foreign investors.

Hotels on the southern Bulgarian Black Sea coast stop making reservations for the summer because all beds are occupied and they cannot accept any more holiday makers, informs Trud daily. The season is filled with Russians, Poles and Germans.

147 Hungarian companies will participate in a conference on economic cooperation between Bulgaria and Hungary, reports Standard daily citing the Ambassador of Hungary to Bulgaria.

Hungary is the 10th  most important investor in the country.
