New Government in Romania

The new government just instated has started to show its first weaknesses.
A minister of education that has been accused of plagiarism and, most recent, a foreign affairs minister allegedly  linked to the Russian president.
All these will come to raise  few questions about how credible can be this government?
In the eyes of the western world this must be a deja-vu .  However we have to recognise that changes have taken place and that Roumania has developed and continues to develop, with more companies investing in the country.
Big names such as Ford, Renault, IBM, are just some of the few companies that have invested millions.

What disappoints is that the country remains very corrupt, a country were doctors are asking for money from their patients.  Maybe they should be reminded that in the civilised world doctors are doing their duty and looking after their patients is the main reason why they have chosen to become doctors, saving lives without having to ask for money in return. Or maybe Roumania wishes not to join the civilised world. The solution is simple, the government has to pay the doctors decent wages.

As in the majority of Latin countries the corruption seem to remain epidemic and only a new generation might change these old habits.

I will finish by saying lets give a chance to this government and lets hope that everything is gong to be all right.
