Please direct me to a list of bussinesses who require agents in
Russia.My reasoning is that since westerners are at high risk in
Russia,there must be a shortage of trustworthty operatives who are of
western nationality willing to communicate with russians.With my young
looks and resources I would be a valuable agent.Able to communicate
between a western company and a russian company.In other words I could
pass myself off as a russian.Although I don,t speak the language ,I
could improvise.Any efforts in anglo russian relations would help
western and especially Britains export drive!,tanks Mike

Clarification of Question by michaelwiseman221-ga on 09 Nov 2002 06:31 PST

I am looking for work.Common sense tells me after recent world
events,working relations with Russia must be difficult. In respect of
,direct face to face relations with Russian companies.                
                  There may be no problem for a Russian repersentative
to come to our country, however a westerner going to there country
would be under great danger.The danger being kidnap or murder.With
some incredible technology,it would be possible to provide a direct
link to anywhere in the world.The  technical details,I will forward at
a later time.                                                         
                                                                      
                                       Thus greatly inproving
communications.All this I could provide at reasonable expense.All this
must ,be an advantege over just using the telephone.What I could
provide is actual visual communications via satalite link up.As
demonstrated by foreign correspondents during the Afghanistan
crisis.Large Russian companies may allready have good communications. 
                               However small ones may struggle,or they
certainly could not afford a highly technical solution which I am
suggesting.Any relevent western companies ,who have dealings with
Russia would be usefull.They may have knowledge of smaller companies
worldwide who need help with there communications.The ideal start
point ,would be importers/exporters,since they would have valuable
knowledge of Russia.The Russian market is large ,somewhere must need
the communications ,I described.                                  
Please suggest a source who could provide further inside
information.Since there are so many companies you might be able to,
point me in the right direction.Any further clarification please
ask,thanks Mike.

I am  brit who lived in Moscow for 2 years (93-95). I can tell you
that unless you partner up with someone local either Rissian or
established westerner your are going to get taken to the cleaners. The
Russian have a certain way of doing business and the all the
steroetypes are true.

If you can find a highly competant translator with some business
skills you may be half way their. Expect to have to deal with the
mafia, probably sooner rather than later.
