3. At APEC Vietnam 2006 in Hanoi, Russia put forward a proposal to host the 2012 summit. Originally, Patrokl Bay (southern part of Vladivostok) was suggested as the site to hold the summit. The original plan was to build a palace to host the actual summit, and a number of five-star hotels for visitors. After the summit, the palace would be converted into a wedding palace, its conference center into the Opera, and the hotels into residential buildings. The proposal put forward for Russia to hold the 2012 summit on Russky Island, which was a closed military zone during the Soviet period, was confirmed at the end of the APEC Australia 2007 summit in Sydney. At a press conference in Sydney, the Governor of Primorskye Region, estimated the cost of hosting the summit at 6 billion USD.

13. The Government of the Russian Federation and of Primorye Region assigns the leading role to the Russly Island as the center of scientific, educational and international cooperation with countries of Asia-Pacific Region. Also plan that active development of the island and placement in its territory of the innovative centers will be a push for development not only Vladivostok, but also all Primorskye Region. At the same time, it should be noted that formation of the center of advancing development in the isolated territory can be an impetus to development of the neighboring territories in which development it is also necessary to attract big investments. Conclusion

14. Is it realistic development plan of Russky Island? It is very difficult to answer on this question. Budget of Vladivostok City and Primorskye Region isn't able to realize such projects. It will be possible only with the participation of the state and private capitals, in other words involvement of private investors. Now there is no created program of development of the island and the program of attraction of investments. The majority of development offers have isolated character and aren't connected by uniform strategy and the plan of action. Government services only begin work on creation of the program of development taking into account opinions of scientific, educational, private enterprises and local population.
