BELGRADE -- Aleksandar Vui said after meeting with Ivica Dai that he "does not want a partisan government," but "wants to unite Serbia and enter difficult reforms."

"We do not want to form a partisan government, our goal is to unite Serbia and go into difficult reforms, and to make Serbia the leader in the region," said the president of the SNS party and the country's future prime minister.

Dai, Serbia's outgoing prime minister and leader of the Socialists (SPS) arrived at the SNS headquarters on Tuesday for talks about a new government, which he said focused mostly on the economy. Ministerial positions have not been discussed, he said.

"We are ready to take on our part of the job - that Serbia does not miss an opportunity, but to step on in a bigger stride," Dai was quoted as saying. He then added that "not a single mistake was made during the current cooperation in the government when it comes to the road along which the country is headed," but that now there was an opportunity to "go into the economy."

Pointing out that the SPS-PUPS-JS coalition "positively assessed" its cooperation so far with Vui and the SNS, Dai stated that his cabinet's results were "good" - and would be "evaluated as significant also in the decades to come."

"Serbia has changed its image and today the worst talk about Serbia is taking place precisely in Serbia. Now it's time for Serbia to end the tradition of missed opportunities," the outgoing prime minister was quoted as saying, and adding: "We reiterate our desire and express our political will that Serbia does not miss the opportunity and that it develops."

The purpose of today's meeting, said Dai, was for Vui to propose a plan, while it did not concern "past times, but the future."

Speaking after the meeting, Vui also said that it was for the most part dedicated to the economy. He reiterated that "there would be no increase in the public debt," but said that Serbia would "get significant and major infrastructure projects, and that in ten or so days concession contracts will be signed for big jobs in that area."

Dai was accompanied by deputy leader of the Party of United Pensioners of Serbia (PUPS), Milan Krkobabi, President of United Serbia (JS) Dragan Markovi Palma, and SPS officials arko Obradovi and Dijana Vukomanovi.

Leaders of Progressives and Socialists meet

The All Progressives Congress in Plateau on Monday in Jos said it had rescheduled its ward congresses to hold on Tuesday.

The State Organising Secretary, Mr David Joseph, told the News Agency of Nigeria the congress could not hold on Saturday as earlier scheduled because of logistic challenges.

He explained that the exercise was deferred due to the late arrival of national officials of the party to the state to preside over the conduct.

Joseph said the officials, who eventually arrived late on Saturday, April 5, were in custody of the materials for the conduct of the congress.

We were told that their take-off was delayed due to the late release of the materials to them, said the organising scribe.

Joseph said the sale of forms for the various positions in the three senatorial zones was in progress.

According to him, the form for the position of a ward chairman attracts N10,000, while forms for other positions go for N2,000 each.

NAN reports that the congress would be conducted in the 340 electoral wards of the state.

Plateau APC reschedules ward congresses to Tuesday

Large turnout of party members characterised the All Progressives Congress ward congresses in Edo on Tuesday, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.

NAN correspondent who monitored the exercise in Benin reports that most of the party members were seen at the various wards as early as 8 a.m.

Officials designated to conduct congresses were, however, not seen at their duty posts as at 10 am.

NAN also observed that security personnel were not seen at most polling units visited.

A party chieftain at Ikpoba-Okha, who pleaded anonymity, attributed the delay in arrival of the officials and materials to harmonised position taken by the party on ward executives across the state.

I can rightly tell you that most ward executives of the party have been harmonised by the party.

This was achieved after series of meetings involving the party chieftains and the governor of the state.

This issue of harmonisation became necessary to avoid rancour or crisis in the party, he stated.

NAN recalls that APC ward congresses were earlier scheduled to take place in the 192 wards of the state last Saturday.

The party congresses at the local government have been fixed for April 12 to be followed by that of the on April 23 respectively.

Short Video in why I am mad at liberals and government - Video

Quebec voters have given a majority mandate to the Liberal Party, led by neurosurgeon Philippe Couillard, after an election campaign focused on fears the separatist Parti Quebecois would seek another vote on splitting from Canada.

The Liberals were elected in 70 of 125 seats according to unofficial results compiled by the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. The Parti Quebecois was reduced to 30 seats as incumbents across the French-speaking province, including Premier Pauline Marois, were defeated. Marois announced she would step down as party leader.

The results complete a comeback for the Liberals, who were defeated by Marois less than two years ago. Couillard, 56, swept to power by stoking fears of another referendum and stressing the need to promote growth in Canadas second most-populous province.

All Quebec has won by giving itself a stable government, Couillard told supporters after the votes were counted. He pledged to run an administration focused on employment and prosperity, and to work to overcome linguistic divisions.

Couillards Liberals took 41 percent of the vote according to preliminary results, compared with 25 percent for the Parti Quebecois. The Coalition Avenir Quebec, led by businessman Francois Legault, was elected in 22 seats with 23 percent of the vote, while Quebec Solidaire, another separatist party, was elected in two seats and was leading in one other.

The extra yield investors demand to hold Quebec bonds instead of those from Ontario, Canadas most-populous province, has declined during the campaign as the prospect of another Parti Quebecois victory dimmed. The Canadian dollar rose to its strongest level in six weeks against the U.S. dollar last week.

The Quebec election dispelled fears of separation, leaving Quebec bonds still at a discount versus Ontario, said Sebastien Galy, senior currency strategist with Societe Generale in New York, in a note to clients. This election wont help the oversupply in housing in Quebec, but it will likely help give a positive impulse to its economy.

Liberals who were elected included Carlos Leitao, former chief economist of Montreal-based Laurentian Bank of Canada, who was ranked the second-most accurate forecaster of the U.S. economy by Bloomberg in 2008. Jacques Daoust, a former executive at Laurentian Bank and Montreal-based National Bank of Canada, also won, as did Martin Coiteux, an economist who worked at the Bank of Canadas Montreal office.

The Liberals promised to create 250,000 jobs in Quebec over five years, according to the Liberal website. The province added 204,900 jobs over the past five years through March, Statistics Canada data shows. Quebecs economy added 15,100 jobs last month, second behind British Columbia, the statistics agency said April 4. That pushed Quebecs unemployment rate down to 7.6 percent from 7.8 percent in February, compared with 6.9 percent for all of Canada.

Quebec is budgeting a C$1.75 billion ($1.59 billion) deficit for the fiscal year that began April 1. Couillard has vowed to balance the budget in fiscal 2015-16. To get there, he plans to reduce spending by C$1.3 billion over two years, including 500 job cuts in the education ministry and a 10 percent reduction in bureaucracy of the health ministry.
