Accept my heartfelt congratulations on the professional holiday - Builder's Day!

On these days pride overwhelms all who are involved in the industry. Most of positive changes that are taking place in Tatarstan are directly related to the builders. Houses are being built, only last year more than 29.000 families moved in new apartments, and the plans for this year exceed those of the last year. New modern complexes of social and cultural significance are being constructed, cities and rural settlements are being improved, and new roads are being constructed. Today builders are involved in a large-scale program on major repairs of apartment houses; more than 900 objects were included in the program of this year. Health facilities are being reconstructed; this year 164 schools of the Republic will be repaired, objects of historical and cultural heritage are being dealt with, large-scale projects of industrial construction are being implemented.

Due to its builders Kazan city has entered the final stage of preparing the city to host the Summer University Games in 2013. In order to hold the 27th World Summer Universiade it is supposed to use 65 sports facilities of which 30 facilities are objects of new construction. Almost all Universiade objects which were already constructed and those being commissioned are unique. They are technically complicated and at the same time they have to be constructed as quickly as possible. And although today the city is more like a construction site and it troubles its citizens and guests, the builders know that there will come the time for recognition and gratitude.

All projects entrusted to the builders are difficult to be counted. From the earliest times this profession has been considered to be one of the most noble, honorable and popular, and now it also became a very responsible one.
