we're traveling two thousand kilometers east of moscow region in southern siberia it's one of the many areas where entire villages becoming ghost towns as young people move to the cities a. few number but there's one place where the residents have a good reason to stay. here we are in the village of castor in vic oregon region and for the past santa fifteen years its population has been steadily increasing here's the reason why. it's monday morning and alexander a former prison guard is it work testing the incoming out lawyers for alcohol. says they're over the limit there is a choice to be started for no show and lose thirty percent of them on salary i've got three kilometers and be docked ten percent of that month's wage. there's no we

do the testing every morning regarding some gender or position within the country that could be caught and they will see it on their paycheck and that's a strong incentive not to drink working week. enforced alcohol abstinence is the idea of this man alexander able to cough is the director of the still such plan and likes to extend his influence as far as possible and i have big ideas the very epitome of micromanagement for the past fifteen years he's been preaching to employees how to make good sausages and how to live a good life. while he is a must it's the quality of the product the first place and it's the quality of the term and whether you'll keep. watch after firing dozens of workers for showing up drunk at work xander started not trying to his employees on the harms of alcohol three times a day during breaks you heard the holy roman emperor charlemagne said the drunk for

a resounding no. i think the whole purpose of power is to create to make life around you better and in this regard i have all the power that i need as for the iron fist i think every successful activity requires discipline strict discipline and it starts with me instead of waiting for somebody to come and do something i do it myself i mean offend other people who. don't understand that i was doing it for the wrong good. many historians made the case that russians prefer a free terran leader and that tackling the deep problems of alcohol addiction and rural isolation needs to treat discipline and total control good or bad in the xander space it seems to have proved efficient axon avoid r t the village of. oregon region. but that show when we continue watching around russia does not have just accessed the back nights of some places but something to recap of our top stories thanks.
