Participants in electoral debates say young persons are marginalized in all areas

During eight years of government, the Communists have neutralized the moral values, but a nation cannot develop without moral norms in all the areas of the political, economic and social life, the representative of the Liberal Party (PL) Ion Ciobanu said during electoral debates at the radio station “Vocea Basarabiei”. Ion Ciobanu of the PL, Galina Bostan of the Social-Democratic Party (PSD), Dinu Turcanu of the Christian Democratic People’s Party (PPCD), Victor Guzun of the Moldova Noastra Alliance (AMN), Oleg Serebrian of the Democratic Party (PD), and George Mocanu of the Liberal Democratic Party (PLDM) took part in the discussions on moral principles. Ion Ciobanu said that as the moral values have been destroyed the young generation is marginalized in all the fields, including in politics and business. “It is hard to be a prosperous businessperson if you are not Oleg Voronin, who is far from representing a moral value, but is rather a thief,” the PL representative said. He expressed his certitude that the promises made by Opposition politicians will take place in Moldova as they kept their word and did not betray their voters. George Mocanu of the PLDM said that the Communist government pretended to pay attention to the young people, an example being 2008 - the Year of Youth, “which was an April 1 trick”. The mass exodus of young persons abroad, the lack of opportunities, jobs and decent living conditions, the impossibility of creating a family prove this. “A country that does not have natural recourses and that does not invest in the youth does not have a future,” said the AMN representative Victor Guzun. According to him, none of the five priorities for supporting the youth declared by the Government was achieved. The access to information is one of these priorities, but the young people in rural areas do not have access to information technology and are imposed to watch only the TV channels loyal to the power, without knowing the truth and possessing unbiased information. Victor Guzun said that there are about 170,000 children and teens in Moldova whose parents are working abroad. Statistics show that over 90% of the minors in prisons come from families where the grownups went abroad. Besides, Guzun said, the young persons have limited possibilities of choosing the future profession as there is no coherence between the education system and the supply of jobs. Oleg Serebrian of the PD said that the young people are one of most vulnerable age categories. The unemployment rate among persons younger than 30 is the highest. The average age of the persons working in state institutions is over 40. The young specialists are employed only by nepotism or if they are members of the ruling party. A contest-based system should be introduced, as in the civilized countries, in order to change the situation. There should be created conditions for the young people to be hired in private institutions. “The young persons leave Moldova because of the economic conditions,” said George Mocanu. According to him, the state does not calculate how many specialists are needed in the national economy. Few of the graduates in law, politology and economics found employment in government and public administration, in private institutions. According to Dinu Turcanu of the PPCD, the Moldovan young people consider they can have a future at home only if they engage in politics and business. For this to happen they should vote on July 29. The statistical data show that the young people in Moldova total 800,000, almost twice more than the pensioners. About 100,000 young persons on July 29 will be abroad: 57% in Russia, 15% in Italy, 3.9% in Romania and less than 2% in other countries.
