 National Press Review, March 5

Articol de Mihai Udroiu, 05 Martie 2012, 10:34

“At the war against cancer with blanks” România Liberă writes on its front page.

The articles refers to lack of facilities in Romanian hospitals, particularly in terms of diagnosing and treating cancer patients.

It is written down for the affirmatons the opinion of the physician Mircea Savu from Institute of Oncology in Bucharest about the condition of equipments available to doctors and how they should run to patients needs.

Thus, it is set the drama of a cancer patient that went through to overcome the disease, and this all because of the small number of radiotherapy machines in Romania, which is almost four times lower than the EU average, as shown the newspaper.

“Abolish revolutionaries Mafia”, this is the call issued by Adevărul to the government following posting of some phone calls in the file that National Anti-Corruption Department ( DNA) detained George Costin , Democrat-Liberal Party member( PDL) and former state secretary of revolutionaries.

The newspaper presents from this file , a case of a participant who obtained the revolutionary certificate with honors and received the allowance, though, in his statement on participation in the events of 1989, that he does not deserve this statute.

The paper criticizes the new draft law on this area that it will be brought to discuss today by the Legal Commission of the Chamber of Deputies, which states that it could increase the rights of revolutionaries.

“ Ponta makes shift with National Integrity Agency( ANI) “ headlines on the front page Evenimentul Zilei, which attempts to prove that the National Integrity Agency( ANI) was wrong in deciding that the Social-Democrat Party(PSD) leader, Victor Ponta, did not commit any illegality when he did not mention in his assets declaration the amounts received as sponsorship for rally racing.

The newspaper sees a contradiction in terms in the inspectors report and draw attention to violations of tax laws in signing sponsorship contracts.

In addition, Evenimentul Zilei fears that National Integrity Agency( ANI) could set a precedent.

Jurnalul Naţional reveals “ Where is the cheap electricity of the smart guys?”

The publication reports used as sources of Transelectrica , the Property Fund and Ministry of Finance and exposes the route of hydro energy to beneficiaries , but also the profit generated by the suppliers.
