We will never change

Monica Iacob-Ridzi - a proven corrupted minister in the Romanian Government. No resignation thou

There’s a common fear in Romania. It’s name is CHANGE.

What is normal in other countries, in here is OUTRAGEOUS. To change a minister because they took bribe?! Or because they are corrupt? Or because papers are full of their corruption, bribe and unfair businesses made with the state money ? No way, not gonna happen! Ever! Not in Romania, at least.

A few years ago I heard that some minister in Sweden or some Northen country has been removed because he took his kid from school with the a car that belong to the ministry he was in charge of. In Belgium, after they found the bodies of 2 young girls buried for more than 17 years in a courtyard of some fanatic, the Justice minister resigned. In Hungary, not later than one year ago, the Transportation minister has forwarded his resignation because one of the trains arrived with a 2 hour delay in Budapest train station.

In Romania we got corruption at it’s full level. The Youth and Sport Minister, Monica Iacob-Ridzi, has give without public licitation, based on party favors more than a half million euros to organize the celebration of 2nd of May, the Youth day in here. Making the calculation of the spend money on real-value, we got for one event only a pickpoket of 280.000 euros from the Ministry money. Arrogance, concorded with the corruption and lack of  a 120 IQ level (140 is high expectation that is never met in Romanian politicians) of the Romanian Minister, brought to the question “where were our money spend?” the answer “we could’ve spend more!”. And no sign or future or current resignation for the current minister.

But, as Monica Iacob-Ridzi there are other people in minister functions. More corrupt, and the money they give to the political party members and sponsors are much more heavier than those 600.000 euros found for the Iacob-Ridzi. More than this, in a European country, to have a travel minister that doesn’t speak english it’s not a crime, it’s a suicidal mission. Or lack of respect for the people that put your ass in charge.

Viva Romania! Viva la corruption!

Why would you vote?

October 29th, 2008

Over the ocean, it’s an intense battle between Obama and McCain. They say Romanians have 2 strong points when it comes to life: politics and sports. On political side, we have a Parliament who doesn’t care for it’s supporters, voters and population unless it’s election’s month; untill then it doesn’t matter that we’re poor, miseducated, close minded and so on, they just care about making a business from being a political figure – close high profit deals with the state, scamming the official founds and so on. when it comes to voting time, they place the “friendly face” on and start making promises. lots of …. but, wtf ? do we get tricked each time, don’t we learned something in the past 20 years. US citizens at least know what they vote ,and know how to cast their vote and for what they cast it. We also know, but …

Don’t vote! a social vote awareness clip promoted by the US government on social media, tv and print.

Bucharest election day

June 11th, 2008

As the second election tour will be held this Sunday in most of the Romania’s cities, the candidates campaigns gets more aggresive and more to the limits. Although Sorin Oprescu, one of the two candidates for the main city and capital of Romania, Bucharest is independent, the “smell” of PSD – the Social Democrat Party is more present in his TV spots. Ofc, when we talk about tens of billions of euros to be invested in the city development, projects and infrastructure, nothing is too much when it’s about winning the major position in the town. The same applies to Vasile Blaga, candidate from Democrat- Liberal Party, backed up by the President of Romania (who attacked two weeks ago without notice or reason the independent Oprescu ) ; both political figures are one month / 4 years bloggers, friends, helpers and anything you want or need. Ofc, they need your vote this Sunday! Good luck choosing!

Here’s the Sorin Oprescu buldog TV ad:
