Bulgaria's outgoing Labor Minister, Emiliya Maslarova, said Tuesday she had lost 17 kg since she b became a minister in 2005.

"None of the Ministers has gained weight. I myself have lost 17 kg. The Prime Minister maintains his shape, he does a lot of sports. Minister (of Culture) Danailov has always been a big guy, don't forget that he is an actor, and has to gain weight for some roles, and lose weight for others", Maslarova said Tuesday commenting on the weight of the members of the outgoing cabinet.

The Labor Minister said she was very satisfied with the fact that she had fulfilled her promises in the social sphere. She noted that Bulgaria's unemployment was 7,08%, or 2% less than the European average, and that the average retirement pension had been doubled in 4 years - from BGN 136 in 2005 to BGN 290 in 2009.
