Recently, in the Research Problems of Canadian Mathematical Bulletin, Vol. 14, No. 4, 1971, there appeared a problem which asks “Is a prime Von Neumann regular ring pimitive?” While we are not able to settle this question one way or the other, we prove that in a Von Neumann regular ring, there is a maximal annihilator right ideal if and only if there is a minimal right ideal.
