BELGRADE (Reuters) - Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic promised a more open style of government on Tuesday, saying he would meet citizens as early as 5 a.m. to hear their concerns and offering to talk to all political parties as he prepares to form an administration.

Vucic's Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) won nearly 50 percent of the votes in last month's general election, securing 131 seats in the 250-seat parliament and enabling him to continue as prime minister for a second four-year term.
