FROM THE EVENTS OF THE PAST WEEK (February 26 - March 5)
Senate Approves Czech-German Declaration As Is
The Czech Senate approved the Czech-German Declaration March 5
without the additional sentence the Social Democrats (CSSD) were pushing
for. Of 81 senators, 54 voted for the Declaration. Unlike the Parliament
vote, where CSSD's sentence was approved, nearly all senators from the
Social Democrats and two from the Communist Party voted against the
document. Social Democrat Chairman Milos Zeman emphasized that CSSD
Senators were not rejecting the Declaration, but the ommission of the
additional sentence (for more on the amendment, see Carolina 235).

Parliament Passes Insurance Law
Czech Parliament Approved the Public Health Insurance Law February
26. The law guarantees that all Czech citizens will receive emergency
medical care, even if the medical institution has no contract with the
his health insurance company. The law was created because the
Constitutional Court ruled that ministerial regulations concerning
healthcare will expire April 1. Of the 192 deputies present, 152 voted
in favor of the law, including a majority of the opposition Social
Democrats.

Rents up, Compensation Undecided
In a continuation of the Czech Republic's economic transformation,
the government decided on a program for rent deregulation. They informed
the Czech media February 28 of the coalition agreement.
The cabinet set three coefficients to determine rent in state
apartments. The government decided that rent will increase by 18.8 per
cent, inflation and location will then add to the increase. The
inflation coefficient has not yet been set. Rents in Prague are expected
to double, while increases in other communities could remain at about
20 per cent. The coalition says that rents will be fully deregulated by
the year 2000, but the coefficient for rent increase will mainly depend
on the size of the locale.
Finance Minister Ivan Kocarnik said inflation should not be more
than 9.5 per cent this year. The government will meet March 12 to
discuss compensation for those renting state apartments, including
non-interest loans for flats.
The Association for Towns and Communities welcomes rent
liberalization and hopes that there will be more funds and that
city-owned flats will no longer be illegally rented out to third
parties.
The opposition Social Democrats say that quick rent liberalization
endangers social peace and the standard of living throughout Czech
society. The party has recommended that the government use a coefficient
that would include the quality of the flat, its age, and the social
position of the lessee.

Three Republicans Stripped of Immunity in Divisive Vote
On February 27 three Republican deputies lost their parliamentary
immunity, making it possible for legal proceedings to begin against
them. A large number of opposition Social Democrats (CSSD) and all
Republican and Communist deputies voted against removing their immunity.
The lower house considered withdrawing the immunity of five
deputies, but in the end only exposed the chairman of the neo-Fascist
band, Miroslav Sladek, as well as Josef Krejsa and Rudolf Smucr. Sladek
will be charged with inciting racial and ethnic intolerance during
a January demonstration against the signing of the Czech-German
Declaration. Krejsa and Smucr are awaiting trial for disturbances during
a commemoration ceremony at Terezin cemetery in July 1994.
Ruling Civic Democratic Party (ODS) Deputy Leader Ivan Pilip was
highly critical of the CSSD position. He was quoted in daily MF DNES as
saying, "We note with unease that partisan interests are winning out
over the need for citizens to be subject to the same standards with
respect to observing the law." Coalition deputies likewise condemned the
fact that, because of the stance of CSSD deputies, immunity was not
withdrawn for Republican Jan Vik, whom police wanted to prosecute for
distributing inflammatory pamphlets with a falsified text of the
agreement between the Czech and German governments.
The lower house removed Vik's immunity two years ago, but after last
year's election he regained it. Commenting on the case for the Civic
Democratic Alliance, Cestmir Hofhanzl said, "If we let someone
intentionally falsify documents with the signatures of leading figures
of a foreign country, then he will someday make fools of us."

Detaining of Republican Leader Provokes Conflicting Reactions
The day after Republican Chairman Miroslav Sladek was stripped of
his parliamentary immunity, police detained the neo-Fascist leader
outside Parliament and took him to a police station, where he was
released after three hours. This act was criticized by a number of
deputies, who raised the question whether the investigating officer
violated the law when he charged Sladek and had him brought in without
having written notice of the removal of immunity in hand. The same day,
Interior Minister Jan Ruml announced in Parliament that the investigator
had acted more hastily than he should have, and Ruml said he will take
appropriate measures with such conduct. He was, however, not able at the
time to say with certainty whether the police had done anything illegal.
For that reason he will have a legal report prepared on the
circumstances in which Sladek was notified of the charge.
Opposition deputies condemned the police action. In a television
debate, Social Democrat Vice-Chairwoman Petra Buzkova even labeled the
investigator's conduct idiotic, as a result of which the investigator
intends to sue her.
On the other hand, most lawyers backed the investigator and claimed
that written notice was not required for charging Sladek.

Minister Lux Supports Railway Union's Demand to Fire General Director
Deputy Prime Minister, Christian Democrat Chairman and Minister of
Agriculture Josef Lux expressed his opinion that General Director of
Czech Railways (CD) Rudolf Mladek will be recalled, according to the
daily MF DNES February 28. That means Lux has openly supported the
demands of railway trade unions (See Carolina 234). "The agreement on
terminating the strike clearly states that in case of evidence of CD
mismanagement submitted by special commission, personnel changes shall
follow. The commission found out that eight of the nine charges posed by
trade unions turned out to be true. There is nothing more to discuss,"
said Lux.
The extraordinary meeting February 27 of Czech Railways' Executive
Board decided, by eight of 10 votes, not to recall Mladek. Chairman of
the Board Michal Tosovsky conceded that "some of the cases are really
serious, and of criminal nature," and that the board recommended
personnel changes in these cases.
Chairman of the Union Association of Railway Workers (OSZ) Jaromir
Dusek did not exclude the possibility of a new strike if Mladek will not
step down. He said "the CD Executive Board is not authorized to
interpret differently findings which have been unanimously approved by
the extraordinary control commission."
Ministers Vladimir Dlouhy (Trade) and Ivan Kocarnik (Finance), who,
together with Lux, negotiated the end of rail strike three weeks ago,
are of the opinion that the findings of the special control group cannot
be the sole reason for Mladek's removal.
After deadline: Mladek announced his resignation March 5.

Wagner Speaks Out against Zeman's Leadership of Social Democrats
Today's Czech Social Democrat Party (CSSD) asserts its will without
respect for other opinions, uses a confrontational approach against the
coalition's ruling party and does not attend to strengthening the
country, which should be the party's priority, said Jozef Wagner,
a member of the party and chairman of Parliament's Budget Committee,
said in Prague's Liberal Institute March 3, and he added: "For me, Czech
politics these days is for nothing."
Some of the leading leftist representatives used the opportunity at
the discussion evening in the Liberal Institute to voice their
disagreement with the tendencies of Social Democrat Chairman Milos Zeman
which are leading, they say, to the restraint of discussion inside the
party and into unwelcome centralism.
Wagner, the greatest critic of Zeman's leadership, was expelled
from the party for voting for the coalition budget proposal at the end
of last year. A few weeks later he was accepted back into the party by
the local organization in Teplice.
Wagner is going to present his new conception of leadership of the
party at the party congress meeting in Bohumin March 14-16. In this
context, Carolina asked whether Wagner himself would not rather replace
Zeman. "It's not too probable, but of course I can't rule it out," he
said, and added that despite Zeman's invincible grip on the post of
chairman, some strong personality in the party should try to defeat him.

Bulgarian President Visits Czech Republic
Bulgarian President Petar Stojanov arrived for a short official
visit of the Czech Republic February 28. His program included meetings
with Czech political leaders and with President Vaclav Havel, who
invited him.
Havel, after meeting with Stojanov, announced the countries will
work toward entering NATO and the EU together. Havel said that does not
mean the Czech Republic and Bulgaria will get into these organizations
at the same time.
Prague Mayor Jan Koukal welcomed Stojanov at the Old Town Hall.
Koukal said his guest was mainly interested in the experiences of Prague
city officials with small-scale privatization.

Havel Sells Part of Lucerna
President Vaclav Havel confirmed February 28 he had sold, for 200
million crowns, his half of Prague's Lucerna Palace to the C.H.R.
company, a member of Chemapol Group. Because Lucerna is a registered
monument, Havel offered his share to the state in January 1996. However,
the Prague Department of Monument Maintenance not take exercise of its
right.
The president denied the accusation of his sister-in-law Dasa
Havlova, who owns the other half of the property, that he did not offer
her his half through her pre-purchase rights. Havlova is sure her
pre-purchase right, which seems evident according to Czech law, was not
respected, and thus she has asked the Land Administration Office not to
register the change of ownership. However, the office said such a matter
can be decided only by the court, according to the daily MF DNES.
Lawyer Elena Hornova, who controls the president's property,
insists the president's attorneys did not break the law in any way.
According to her press statement, Havlova cannot imagine owning
Lucerna together with Chemapol, which has been accused by Interior
Minister and former dissident Jan Ruml of connections to the former
state police and Russian authorities. However, President Havel does not
regret his decision and hopes for successful cooperation between his
sister-in-law and Chemapol. "I consider it more important how the the
company is managed," said Havel. The president is to donate
a significant amount of money from the sale to the Vaclav and Olga
Havel' Foundation.

ECONOMY
Strike in Poldi Steel Continues
The strike of Poldi Steel Kladno employees has entered its second
week - besides rolling-mill workers in Drin, personnel and accounting
department workers have joined the strike (See Carolina 236). However,
the once-planned occupation strike, which would completely paralyze the
production, has not yet been launched. Thus, in the steel works, which
are otherwise at a standstill, products are being finished in some
departments and dispatched to customers. As the daily Pravo wrote March
4, Kladno union leaders fear the embezzlement of company assets, but the
workers' guard, which is to block the factory gates and not let one car
through, will wait till March 5. That day they are scheduled to discuss
wages with the majority owner Marko Stehlik.
Last week, November's wages were paid in full. However, the
union's calls for December and January pay still go unheeded.
Petra Sevcikova/Denisa Vitkova
Bohemia Art Sold to Pro Win
The indebted company Bohemia Art, the majority owner of Poldi Steel
Kladno, has a new owner - Prague's Pro Win company. As the daily Pravo
reported March 5, Marko Stehlik sold the firm February 28.
Pro Win is a joint-stock company (its shares are not publicly
traded) with share capital of 10 million crowns. It was entered in the
Commercial Register October 31 and is owned by individuals, primarily
lawyers. According to the daily MF DNES, Stehlik received 15 million
crowns for the sale and has thus completely extricated himself from the
Poldi controversy.

MARKETS AND COMPANIES
* The Prague Stock Exchange experienced a growth spurt at the
beginning of this year, with the PX 50 index reaching 625 points, 100
points better than fall 1996. Last week, however, indicates that
a downward reaction is coming, as big investors are evidently moving
eastward. The index went under 500 points after trading March 4.
* The Aero tender could end up a disaster due to the information leak
that those mentioned as "seriously interested," supposed to cooperate on
the restoration of the Czech aerial armaments industry - Chemapol,
Lockheed Martin and the British Aerospace/Saab consortium - are thinking
of quitting such a risky investment. Another offer, from Boeing,
allegedly contains formal insufficiencies. The last one left is the
obscure Cimex holding from Karlovy Vary, known mainly for its investment
fund piracy.
* According to Vaclav Junek, the head of one of the biggest and most
dynamic Czech private companies - Chemapol - a complete company
restructuralization is planned, with the establishing of five
subholdings: industry, communication, trade, distribution and real
estate. All of them will be owned by the mother company. Last year's
gross profits of Junek's empire reached about 650 million crowns.
* Olomouc's Seliko announced one of its worst economic results in
recent years - net 1996 profits were almost 22 million crowns, in spite
of a respectable turnover of 1.4 billion crowns. Last year's leadership
fights and purchase of Nealko probably bear at least partial blame for
the results. There is also an opinion that the cold summer lowered
demand for refreshing, central-Moravian lemonades.
* Litomysl's Vertex, which drew attention last year with a war for
control major shareholders, does not seem to be affected by the fight.
On the contrary, its net profits for 1996 reached an unbelievable 200
million crowns. The ownership structure of the eastern Bohemian producer
of glass fibers proves the Czech saying that while four fight, none
laughs - four funds each hold between 10 per cent and 20 per cent of the
company's shares.
* Another battle of shareholders is happening in Bohemia Sekt of
Plzenec. The fight between the Czech PPF and German Commerzbank
financial groups was won by PPF. They won thanks to employee
shareholders' support, which gave them a majority at the recent general
meeting. For the near future, the champagne-producer leadership will
remain Czech.

CULTURE
Kolya Triumphs at Czech Film Awards Ceremony
The Sveraks' film Kolya was awarded six Czech Lion trophys at the
annual national film awards. In the United States the film has also been
nominated for an Oscar.
Winning in six categories is a record in the four-year history of
the Czech Lions. Kolya won the awards for best movie, best director (Jan
Sverak), best screenplay (his father, Zdenek Sverak), best male
supporting actor (7-year-old Andrei Chalimon from Russia), best actress
(Libuse Safrankova) and best editor (Alois Fisarek).
Of the 20 Czech films made in 1996, King Ubu from director and
cameraman F. A. Brabec and Forgotten Light (Zapomenute svetlo) from
Vladimir Michalek won in the remaining major categories. King Ubu won
for the best camera (Brabec), music (Lubos Fiser) and graphics (Jindrich
Goetz). Comedian Boleslav Polivka was voted best actor for his dramatic
role in Forgotten Light. The best supporting actress was Veronika
Zilkova (Forgotten Light).
Director Jiri Menzel (e. g., Closely Watched Trains, awarded the
1968 Oscar for best foreign film) received the award for lifetime
contribution to Czech cinematography. Young director Zdenek Tyc was
given the Plush Lion for worst film, as his comedy Already (Uz)
disappointed the expectations of the academy panel.

Rock Legend Misik Celebrates 50th
Singer, musician and one of the most respected Czech rock stars,
Vladimir Misik is celebrating his 50th birthday. Misik and his Etc.
Band's gala performance is planned for March 7. At Prague's Akropolis
Palace, Misik's former colleagues, such as violinist Jan Hruby, composer
Petr Skoumal and singer and former Deputy Culture Minister Michal
Prokop, will also perform.
Although Misik was forced not to perform by communists from time to
time, his songs became very popular. His songs are often poems set to
music. During the Velvet Revolution in 1989 he performed at
demonstrations with his accoustic guitar. When the Rolling Stones played
in Prague for the first time, in 1990, Misik and his band opened the
concert at Strahov Stadium.
In the early 1990's Misik was a deputy of the former
Czechoslovakia's Parliament. He now plays in clubs, sometimes abroad.
His latest album was released in 1996, The Town Of Eiderdown (Mesto
z perin).

One Statue's End
Adhering to an official decision, sculptor Martin Patricny removed
the wooden statue of a woman he placed in the middle of Prague's
Wenceslas Square five years ago without the permission of Prague
officials. For the removal he used a chain saw. Officials decided he
must remove his work, entitled Being-Earth, from public property.

SPORTS
Bukac Leaves World Champions
Ludek Bukac considers journalists' invectives against him and the
insensitive attitudes of sponsors the main reasons for his surprising
withdrawal from the post of national team coach only two months before
the ice hockey World Championships in Finland. "I looked forward to
leading the players' preparation for the world championships, but
I don't feel like letting myself be insulted in the newspapers. I also
do not intend to serve the trend which makes hockey into a business," he
said.
Hockey Union President Karel Gut found out about the coach's
decision by phone February 27. At a February 28 press conference, Bukac
would not admit making a single error (this year the Czech squad has won
only three times), he simply struck out at his biggest opponents.
Experts and players do not think Bukac's decision is a good one.
Bukac's assistants Slavomir Lener and Ivan Hlinka became new co-head
coaches March 5.

Fight for Soccer League Lead Gets Dramatic
After a February 28 win in Drnovice, Sparta players took the top
spot in the standings for two days. Slavia ousted them March 2, when
they defeated Viktoria Zizkov 2-0. Another candidate for the heights,
Jablonec, has not lost in spring, it managed to exact a weak 2-1 win in
Opava with one of its players ejected.
The situation at the bottom of the standings is clearing up, too.
The two "favorites," Hradec Kralove and Bohemians, each lost on their
own field 0-1, neither team has picked up a point this spring.
Results of the 17th round: Drnovice - Sparta Praha 0-2, Brno
- Liberec 1-1, Slavia Praha - Zizkov 2-0, Hradec Kralove - Olomouc 0-1,
Ostrava - Ceske Budejovice 3-2, Bohemians Praha - Teplice 0-1, Plzen
- Karvina 3-0, Jablonec - Opava 2-1.

Hockey Extraleague Aims towards Playoffs
After the February 27 match between Ceske Budejovice and Kladno
(6-1), the 48th round of the hockey Extraleague continued on the last
February day. The 5-2 play between fourth-place Pardubice and
second-place Sparta was the hit of this round. The match brought
a sold-out auditorium to euphoria with some great play.
The 49th round shed more light on the "Who will advance to
playoffs?" question. Litvinov and Zlin both lost, and it seems they will
be the teams that do not advance. Vsetin, Czech champion the last two
years, has clinched first place in the regular season standings with
three rounds to go.
Results of the 48th round: Ceske Budejovice - Kladno 6-1, Zlin
- Opava 7-3, Slavia Praha -Plzen 4-1, Litvinov - Vsetin 2-3, Vitkovice
- Trinec 5-3, Pardubice - Sparta Praha 5-2, Jihlava - Olomouc 1-3.
Results of the 49th round: Vsetin - Pardubice 7-1, Opava
- Vitkovice 1-5, Trinec - Olomouc 3-1, Ceske Budejovice - Jihlava 2-2,
Kladno - Litvinov 3-1, Plzen - Zlin 6-3, Sparta Praha - Slavia Praha
3-3.
Postponed Match: Vitkovice - Sparta Praha 3-1.
Standings: 1. Vsetin 70 pts., 2. Sparta Praha 61, 3. Vitkovice 61,

Czech Tennis Players Win "B-Team" Match
Ludmila Richterova and Adriana Gersi advanced to the KB Fed Cup
semifinals when they defeated Germany 3-2 in the first round of the
women's tennis team competition in Mannheim, Germany.
The match was marked by the absence of top world players from both
teams. The home team missed the injured Anke Huber and Steffi Graf,
while the Czechs were missing Jana Novotna, who was sick.
On March 1 Weingarter met Richterova on a hard court and defeated
her 3-6, 7-5 and 6-3. Gersi then defeated Rittner 6-4, 6-2. On March 2
Richterova licked Rittner 6-1, 6-4 and Gersi thumped Weingarter 6-2,
6-2.
The 7-6, 6-2 Rittner-Weingarter win against Martincova and
Richterova already did not change anything, and the Czech Republic
advanced to the semifinals, which it will play July 12-13 on its own
courts against the Netherlands.
