		In the Austrian universities and art colleges, as well as in the recently established Fachhochschulen (post-secondary special-subject colleges) the medium of instruction generally is German with the exception of particular courses (e.g.

		An interesting proposal was made to set up a railway link between Carinthia (Klagenfurt) and Styria (Graz), Austria, via the Drava valley (Klagenfurt, Bleiberg, Holmec, Dravograd, Maribor, Graz) which would significantly speed up development both in Austrian Carinthia as well as in the Slovene municipalities in the Drava Valley.
		As one possibility of using the natural resources of Slovene as well as Austrian Carinthia, Mayor Haderlapp suggested a cycle path linking Austrian and Slovene towns across the Pavlič Pass and Luže, modelled on the example of Lake Garda in Italy.
		Austrian Carinthia will be able to exert some influence on which variant will be chosen, as it is financing up to one-third of the road-linking project between Austrian Carinthia and neighbouring provinces or countries.

	Ethnic Cuisine: Austria
		Austrian cuisine in general: It is the culinary reflection of an ethnically mixed people who, during the many centuries of the Austrian Habsburg empire's expansion and contraction, have exchanged culinary know-how with Turkish, Swiss, Alsacian, French, Spanish, Dutch, Italian, German, Bohemian-Moravian, Hungarian, Polish, Croatian, Slovenian, Slovakian, Serbian, and Jewish cuisine.
		Coffee seems to be a staple nourishment to Austrians, who are very selective about the type of coffee they prepare and about the type of coffee beans they use for their coffees.
		Whether Austrian coffees are served simply fl, with or without milk, or fancy -- with sugar sprinkles, with pieces of chocolate, with cherries, or spiked with liqueurs and brandies -- all have their special coffee name in the Austrian classic list of hot beverage.

		Actually, many of the factors contributing to Haider's success are not that unique: Carinthia, the southernmost Austrian state, with a population of 700,000, is a relatively poor region in the EU with the highest unemployment rates and lowest wages in Austria.

	The Slovenes - history of the nation
		Slovene settlement in Austria waned as early as the 13th century: German colonization reached the Villach Basin in Carinthia, the Graz Basin in Styria, and the Sora River flood plain in Carniola, and Italian colonization dominated the Friulian lowlands.
		With a new wave of German colonization from the north, the ethnic border was entrenched running across Hermagor in the Gail Valley, Mount Dobratsch, Villach, Maria Saal, the Saualpe mountain range, Mount Kozjak, Radgona/Bad Radkersburg, and the Kucnica River by the 15th century and remained until the middle of the 19th century.
		The provinces of Styria, Carniola, Carinthia, Istria, and later Gorizia were recognized together as “Inner Austria.” In the first half of the 15th century, the princes of Celje were greater than the Hapsburgs, but the Hapsburgs inherited their territory when the last of the Celje dynasty died.

		From the Austrian government it should claim, that it protects the Slovenian minority from nationalistic attacks and in their country enable the Slovenian people and the Slovenian language an undesturbed cultural development.
		SM in its statement also warns, that in Austrian Carinthia the Slovenian minority, as so many times until now, was made an issue of prevotal manipulations by nationalistic Carinthian politicians and the decision of the Austrian constitutional court, which dictates putting up bilingual local signs, isn't carried out.
		In that atmosphere the Slovenian language in Carinthia is further disappering from the formal, scholar and even private use, which was noticed by the Preseren prize winner of this year, the Carinthian Slovenian writer Florjan Lipus, in his speach.

		Despite the shared opinion that the co-operation between the National Council and the Austrian national parliament as well as the provincial parliament of Austrian Styria has so far been functioning on friendly ground, the co-operation should be strengthened, mainly by establishing a co-operation with the parliaments of Austrian provinces at the Slovenian-Austrian border.
		During his talks with Gruenbuehel, Susnik also emphasised the importance of the Slovenian ethnic community in Austrian Carinthia as the key element for bilateral co-operation and development.
