Odessa named Ukraine’s best city of 2009. The international consumer rights organization “Znak Kachestva” named the city as winner of 2009’s “Best city in Ukraine” category. The news was announced by Elena Varicheva, deputy head of the office of municipal affairs. “Odessa was a very convincing winner in the category, and was named the most comfortable Ukrainian city to live in for 2009”, Varicheva said. According to the deputy, the organization’s award is the only officially registered honour of its kind approved by the Ukrainian government. The award is judged on a number of criteria across a number of fields, including achievements in business, education, teaching, local government, social services, non-profit organizations and charitable projects. “Znak Kachestva”’s main trustee is the Ukrainian “national delegation” fund, which is headed by former president Leonid Kravchuk. The city was also named Ukraine’s ‘most comfortable city to live in’ in February. Original link is here
