the small country has been independent from serbia for not even a decade.russels says the country has to do more to fight corruption and organized crime and improve general freedoms, but in one area, montenegro has already made giant leaps. it knows how to attract foreign interests, especially of the wealthier sort. >> the financial crisis has affected montenegro very differently from the rest of the world. oliver sees it every day from his beautiful terrace. the area has suddenly become a haven for super yachts and megawatts, and their numbers are growing all the time. a super yacht has a minimum length of 24 meters. some of the votes here are 150 meters long, and incidentally, each one of those meters adds about 1 million euros to the price tag, so what was that about a financial crisis? >> this industry is relatively immune to the. in a way, the financial crisis has been more helpful to us because people are careful with how they spend the money and looking for more valued in places to keep their yachts. >> they are also looking for space. finding the ri
