Young Romanians prefer money to education


For young Romanians short term money is more important than education, writes the daily paper "Adevarul" (the truth). For two decades young people, even children, have reinforced the idea that they do not need books but money. This has mainly been caused by the corruption: titles and names are still purchaseable.








The power of witches and fortune tellers in Romania


It was planned that vendors of occult practices should pay taxes on their income and be hold liable for false prognoses. As reported in a previous newsletter superstition is still booming in this country. Therefore the Romanian senate refused the law of tax payment for fortune tellers. Even the senators dread the curses of witches and fortune tellers.






Romanian media giant fallen into disgrace



The Romanian media giant Sorin Ovidio Vintu has fallen in a temporary disgrace and been arrested. The prosecution accuses him of having supported a businessman who was searched for. Vintu who had defrauded thousands of Romanians of their savings in the nineties was not prosecuted then, because this investment fund fraud was organized by an army of former Securitate officers, police officers and secret service people. Therefore he was protected and tolerated by the government. The newspaper "Romania libera" (free Romania) writes: "S. O. Vintu not only is a representative of the system, he actually is the system." His arrestment suggests the assumption that somebody has broken out of the system of the Mafia, which is remarkable.
