''There are offers that are very difficult to turn down, especially if they come from the President of the Republic,'' Sildam said. ''In principle, at my new job I will continue the same work that I have done as a journalist -- trying to find out how the state and society function.''
Sildam (44) has worked as a journalist at various newspapers over 20 years, for the last ten years at the daily newspaper Postimees.
Sildam will begin work in the Office of the President on October 23, 2006.
