Fair attitude to every person is the main requirement for the education system, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said at the meeting held on 12 October to discuss the legislative improvement of the national education system, BelTA informs.
The head of state remarked that the world is changing very quickly, and the national education system should promptly adjust to the spirit of the times. “As the head of state, I insist that the education system should, first of all, prioritize fair attitude to every person, provide equal education opportunities,” Aleksandr Lukashenko stressed. “Fairness is key. These are the first steps of our future citizens. Therefore, these first steps must be made in the atmosphere of honesty and fairness.”
The president wanted to listen to the opinions of all participants of the meeting regarding the proposed innovations. In his words, it is also essential to assess the readiness of the Belarusian education system to embrace new approaches envisaged in the education code and enrollment rules. “What will these innovations give our country, students, teachers?” the head of state wondered. “For example, I would like to be informed about the introduction of the national state exam, the expansion of targeted education schemes. Will the abovementioned principle be observed if we use this approach?”
According to Aleksandr Lukashenko, when making such changes it is important not to lose an opportunity to see every college or university applicant. “Let's decide how we will admit people to universities. The easiest way is to keep the existing system, but we can also significantly modernize it. I am concerned about only one thing: we do not see people behind this centralized testing. It is dangerous,” the president believes.
“I want to have a sincere conversation with you. There are no minor things in the education system. We cannot make any mistakes. The system also determines the development of the country's economy, its ability to resist global challenges,” the head of state said. “Once again, school must be school, this is a sacred place. All these things must be reflected in the education code.”

Belarus has reached a top regional position in the Integrated Index for Postal Development (2IPD) rankings 2021, BelTA learned from the website of the Belarusian postal service Belpochta.
“The new rankings covers 168 countries. Belarus has achieved impressive results and for the first time topped its regional group, placing 14th overall. Apart from Belarus, this regional group includes Eastern Europe and the CIS countries,” Belpochta said.
Belarus' index of postal development made up 67.4 points, which let the country move up six positions in the rankings compared to the previous year.
The Universal Postal Union annually issues a comprehensive index for postal development (2IPD). It is a composite index that gives a summary of postal development in any country or region based on four key components: reliability, reach, relevance and resilience. “These four components are aimed at providing a balanced view of postal development, without solely focusing on operational, strategic or societal matters. All the information collected and processed in this context establishes a global ranking published annually. The input is then integrated into an algorithm, which yields a general score between 0 and 100 for each assessed country. This enables the final score to comprehensively reflect the situation of postal services in any given geography,” Belpochta explained.
The Integrated Index for Postal Development (2IPD) helps ensure that postal sector players have all the information they need, thus forming the basis for the strategic and economic evaluation conducted by the Universal Postal Union.

Только с 4 по 11 октября 2021 года по всей стране произошел 131 пожар, на котором погибли 19, а травмированными оказались 10 человек. Что послужило причиной всех происшествий, еще предстоит выяснить, однако, опираясь на опыт, ясно, что «зачинщиками» подавляющего большинства трагедий становятся неосторожное обращение с огнем при курении, неисправные электроприборы и неправильная эксплуатация печного отопления и обогревателей.
Чтобы избежать пожаров и гибели людей от них, МЧС напоминает:
Спасатели также напоминают, чтобы безопасно эксплуатировать печное отопление, нужно заделать все трещины в печи, проверить кладку, оштукатурить и побелить дымоход, прибить перед топкой на деревянном полу металлический лист размерами на 10 см больше топливника с каждой стороны, чтобы случайно выпавшие угли не привели к пожару.
Во время топки печи также помните о соблюдении правил пожарной безопасности. Ни в коем случае не используйте легковоспламеняющиеся и горючие жидкости, ведь достаточно искры и одной капли, попавшей на вашу одежду, что бы пламя перекинулось на вас и вы получили ожоги. Никогда не допускайте перекала печи, ведь в кладке могут образоваться трещины, что со временем приведет к пожару. Горючие материалы, мебель и одежду держите не менее чем в 1,5 м от печи. Также стоит помнить, что золу и угли из печи стоит выбрасывать на безопасном расстоянии от строений, перед этим пролив водой.
Помните! Правильная подготовка печи к отопительному сезону, а также соблюдение правил пожарной безопасности при её эксплуатации позволит обойтись без трагических последствий.
В случае пожара звоните в МЧС по телефонным номерам 101 или 112.
