Bulgaria is among 27 European Union member states that will have to come into line with the Blue Card employment scheme for highly-skilled foreign employees, approved by the European Council. The Sofia Echo has full details in its issue published on May 29 2009.
 
The paper also looks ahead to the coming European Parliament elections, including coverage of trends in other EU states.
 
In the business section, The Sofia Echo has details of the changes to the Investment Encouragement Act, as well as stories on Bansko’s plans for the summer season and a separate in-depth look at prospects – or otherwise – for the country’s tourist industry this coming summer.
 
In the features section, we look ahead at the unfolding story of European Commission President Jose Barroso’s bid for a second term, while delving into the past, The Sofia Echo has two double-page spreads on some of the historical and archeological attractions of Bulgaria’s Eastern Rhodopes region.
 
Elsewhere, the newspaper has its regular entertainment listings, restaurant review, social photos and sports coverage.
