Kiska stated that U.S. Steel Kosice president George Babcoke told him that he's most of all proud of the company's employees - from blue-collar workers up to the management.
"This creates quality and a huge advantage over the others," stressed Kiska, adding that Babcoke complained about high prices of energy.
"Electricity prices in Slovakia are twice as high as in the USA

Meanwhile, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico attended May day celebrations at Zilina.
"I want to take advantage of May day to say that we support trade union ideas, mainly when it comes to the Labor Code, collective bargaining, employment via agencies and increasing the minimum wage

"I'll support all ambitions to increase the minimum wage to approach the level of 400 euros (about 448 U.S. dollars) per month as closely as possible," said Fico, adding that an improvement in the working and legal conditions of employees doesn't increase unemployment.
"We're modifying the Labor Code in rather a leftist direction. We've tackled agency employment, which had been creating slavery-like conditions. Despite this, unemployment is falling," concluded Fico.

Quade Cooper has been picked as Wallabies' vice-captain, replacing Will Genia.
""Ben now gets another opportunity to lead his country, while we're recognizing Quade for the ongoing decision-making role he plays on the field and the positive involvements he continues to make in contributing to the culture of the team off the field,"" McKenzie said.

COLOMBO, June 13 (Xinhua) -- Global insurance giant American International Group (AIG) is closing business in Sri Lanka
Adidas Men NMD CS2 Primeknit Black UK , the company said in a statement on Friday.
AIG was one of the 19 General insurance providers in the Sri Lankan market and its share (0.3 percent by end 2012) was insignificant.
This move has made industry analysts emphasize that AIG's exit won't have any impact in the market, though others noted post-war Sri Lanka was losing a valuable U.S. brand whose global revenue in 2013 was 69 billion U.S. dollars and has a customer base of 88 million.
"As AIG continues to streamline and simplify as an organization, we have been closely examining those business segments within those countries in which products and services are not meeting the needs of our customers or are not a current focus of AIG and may no longer fit into our strategic growth plans. After careful consideration and an in-depth review, we have decided to withdraw from the Sri Lanka market," the company said in a short statement released to media.
Sri Lanka's regulator Insurance Board of Sri Lanka (IBSL) has asked AIG to present written exit plans explaining its action regarding employees and policy holders.
Insurance penetration and density in Sri Lanka is relatively low in comparison to other Asian countries.
According to Central Bank data, insurance penetration

AIG went to the brink of collapse in 2008 during the height of the financial crisis and required a bailout of 182 billion U.S. dollars.
Wall Street reported that in terms of employees and total assets, AIG is roughly half the size it was before the crisis, thanks largely to divestitures of two international Life insurance units and sales of numerous other businesses.
The company, with a market capitalization of almost 80 billion U.S. dollars, returned to profitability and in 2012 finished repaying taxpayers the aid it required in the bailout.
Employing over 64

NAIROBI, June 25 (Xinhua) -- China leads the globe in the trade of renewable energy products, a survey from the UN Environmental Programme (UNEP) on Wednesday revealed.
The survey indicates that China leveraged on decreased manufacturing costs and increased investment to boost the trade.
"While there was a decline in growth in Europe in 2013, there was strong growth in China and several other developing country markets," UNEP Executive Director Achim Steiner told the United Nations Environmental Assembly.
Steiner said developing countries collectively accounted for above 30 percent new solar photovoltaic capacity installed globally last year.
"A significant contributor to South-South environmental goods and services trade is exchange of renewable energy technologies
