Wheels of Ukrainian economy

On December 14, 2005 the State administration of railway transport of Ukraine - central controlling body of Ukrainian Railways (Ukrzaliznytsya) celebrates its 14th anniversary. Just a month before that, on November 11, by the Ukraine president's order, head of Ukrzaliznytsya - Zenko Aftanaziv resigned. He was the fifth head of the company and the fourth general director who had been working for the company less than 9 months. During this period, Ukraine changed eight Ministers of Transport. At present, 30-years old Viktor Bondar has taken the post and become the second head of the Ministry joining Transport and Communication sectors. Considering the fact that during the same period Ukraine changed 14 prime-ministers, it can be easily said that Ukrainian transport sector has undergone both the "transition period" of the state in general and a series of "smaller transition periods" connected with a certain "mobility" of the transport sector governing body.
