Wika Systems, a German investor that owns Manometry, has made a call to buy Manometry's shares in order to delist the company from the stock exchange.

LC Corp, an Amsterdam-based company owned by Leszek Czarnecki, will buy 10.3% of Górnośląski Bank Gospodarczy (GBG) from Kopex for almost zł.37 million. (Parkiet, p. 5) ... Yesterday the Senate approved the new telecoms law. Fortunately for all internet users it is still legal to register your e-mail account via the Internet without the need to visit a special office in person. It also remained unchanged that pre-paid mobile phones owners do not have to sign agreements with their operators. The new law will now be voted on again in the Sejm. (Parkiet, p. 6) D.W.
