The message reads, in part:
“Today, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk is once again welcoming talented, enterprising and purpose-oriented young men and women from different regions across our vast country. All of you are united by sincere love for the Motherland, a sense of personal involvement in its destiny, and a desire to make a constructive contribution to the development of the Russian Far East. I know that the participants already have some experience in professional, project, public and volunteer work, and they will be able to propose their own programmes and initiatives to spur economic growth and social progress in this unique region and improve the quality of people’s lives. Thanks to this forum, many students and young professionals have found their dream jobs and made important career choices.
And, of course, you will have the opportunity to meet prominent politicians and experts, go on exciting trips and take part educational and awareness building events.”
