Elections in Serbia: Djindjic's Problem List

With parliamentary elections held on 23rd December Serbia has made an important step towards democracy, kicking away the remaining representatives of the Socialist regime and paving the way for a new breed of reform-minded leaders. After the triumph of presidential candidate Vojislav Kostunica over Slobodan Milosevic in October, parliamentary elections were now easily won by the new president’s allies of the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS), an 18-party coalition which got 64% of the vote. DOS-leader Zoran Djindjic will be Serbia’s new prime minister. He will need all his political philosophy to rebuild his country’s institutions and economy as well as good friendship with the neighbors. Then a new economic union should be prepared in order to gain real stability for the Balkan region.

Operator Precedence

When VBScript encounters an expression that contains several different operators, a basic precedence order is followed to evaluate the expression. This predetermined order of evaluating operators is known as operator precedence. Since the portions of an expression that are placed within parentheses are evaluated first, you can use parentheses within your expression to override the operator precedence and force some portions of your expression to be evaluated before other portions.
