Hi,

I wanted to know a little bit about the people and what affects them. 
I have a list, but please if you can find information that would help
me understand the issues I'm seeking to understand, then please do
provide that:

1. Average incoming per family per month.  Possibly devided by region
in the country or other suggested divisions?

2. How reliable is incomes for families from the private and public sector?

3. What are the booming industries now a day that are employing people
and where does employment seem to be heading if one would like to seek
training to better prepare for jobs?

4. What are Ukrainian professionals seeking in terms of jobs outside
of the Ukraine and what are the regions they seem to be traveling to
and what are the majority of those professions?

5. What are the average total salaries for the different professions
in the private and public sector?  Please pick an example list of ten
professions or more.

6. List the regions/cities in the Ukraine starting from the most
touristy to the least touristy.

7. Is education a given for everyone or are there issues?

8. As to cost of living, what are the typical categories and their
average costs for a middle class family?

9. What are the age/gender demographics? Also ratios such as number of
men to women and so on.

10. What's the cost of transportation for a family? Public and private
including a decent car, fuel and maintenance as well as insurance?

11. How about medical insurance averages and does the government
provide medical coverage?

Thank you.

Request for Question Clarification by pafalafa-ga on 20 Dec 2005 09:38 PST

Mao,

Thanks for your question.

There's an enormous amount of information available on the country,
geography, economy and people of the Ukraine, and I'd be happy to
extract some interesting details, and point you towards extensive
sources of information.

However, it's unlikely that the available information will allow each
and every one of your specific questions to be answered.  I've rarely
seen reports, for instance, that tease out specific costs for
insurance, transporatation, and the like.

Will an answer with a good overview of the Ukraine work for you?  Or
do you absolutely need the specific details you listed?


Let me know what you think,

paf

Hi,

I would like to know rough estimates or educated guesses where
information is not available.. including possibly posts in forums that
cover the areas I'm interested in.

Would that make it more doable?
