Industrial production grew by 5.9% in July, and it is 4.7% in the first six months. We have growth of employment in the industry by 6.7% and what is most important Macedonian economy in the second quarter i.e. GDP notes growth of 4.3% which is the highest growth in Europe, Gruevski said Saturday after putting into operation multifunctional playground and reconstructed school “Kuzman Josifovski Pitu” in Kisela Voda in Skopje.
