According to Bogdan, the first deputy health minister said this purchase is likely only after the state budget for 2006 is adopted which will give the ministry USD 633.9 mln to spend on improving healthcare. The total value of the contract is ~2.4% of this amount (USD 15 mln). In related news, Bogdan continues to target CIS markets, and now intends to start exports to Moldova in 2005. Two buses will be delivered to the Chisinau municipal bus park by the end of this week, and in a month the Molodvian authorities will decide whether to order more buses. Bogdan believes that in 2005 exports to Moldova will reach 50 buses.
