“My Markovo”

Lev Aleksandrovich Treshchenko, President, “My Markovo” Association

“My Markovo” was established in November 1989. Members include not only the indigenous population, but also the Russian and Ukrainian residents of our settlement.

The first Association Committee addressed the most fundamental issues, such as establishing priorities, distributing accommodation and humanitarian aid, as well as food purchases (fish and meat) for the indigenous population.

In addition to the above-mentioned activities, the new Association Committee is currently also working on the following:

1. preserving indigenous traditions; and educating young people based on these traditions;
   
2. creating additional employment possibilities for the population;
   

resolving the environmental problems in the village and local area.
