National Press Review  March 14

14 Martie 2012, 10:20

România Liberă writes today about "State Mafia from the Property return".

The control held at National Authority for Properties Refund(ANRP) reveals much injustice in compensation to former owners.

Retrocessions were not made according to strict rules were rather exceptions rule.

Checking shows that 80% of compensation cases resolved by ANRP did not have heir certiicates.

"Speed along the debt spiral", sees Adevărul.

This year the state will have to borrow even more than last year.

Why? Because 2012 is the year for half of total debt maturities that the state has accumulated in banks.

No where, so that Ministry of Finance must roll back all loans and with appear new interests.

And at the same time, we are "shunned by all: foreign investments have decreased by 95%," writes Jurnalul Naţional .

National Bank of Romania ( BNR) report for January shows a "dive" from the same month last year: only 23million. Basically, it means that investments are "frozen".

This year, the state hopes to offset the departure of Nokia into Ford production plant in Craiova.

Unfortunately, the American company "has once again pulled trick" the Romanian state.

There is still land that European giants struggling to catch instead.

Ziarul Financiar tells us that today starts the "hardest war of telecommunications : who remains on a market of 40 billion Euros".

It starts mega auction that will determine which companies will provide mobile services in Romania in the next 15 years.

We'll see how much money will bring this fight to the budget, given operators complain of crisis and declining revenue continues.

About how public money is spent and on conflict of interests we can read in Evenimentul Zilei , continuing their campaign "Baroniada 2012".

Today is sifted the businesses of the head of County Council Arges, Constantin Niculescu, who say journalists, "has made a religion out of his own firms invited to state state business."

Is sifted Firms where majority shareholder is Niculescu received more than a hundred contracts with public money, writes Evenimentul Zilei.

Another headline in Adevărul: "Children of teachers, more equal than others".

Teachers have priority to enroll their children in any school.

The authorities in charge of combating discrimination are considering whether to challenge the legality of this facility.

Also in România Liberă we find a possible answer to the question "what chance has the first section of the A3 to be ready in May?".

You should be working at night, to go work perfect, it might not rain too much, to increase rapidly temperatures above 10 ° C. ... "Romanian National Company of Motorways and National Roads (CNADNR) should say thanks if works will be finished in August," said an official of the project.
