A street in Chisinau can bear the name of Dumitru Matcovschi. The municipality also plans to set up a bust in memory of the poet. The suggestions were made by Mayor General of Chisinau Dorin Chirtoaca, IPN reports.
The mayor said that some of the homes of culture or education institutions may be also renamed. “We want to do these things in a decent manner. We will involve the family so as to make sure that the poet’s good name is not affected. Dumitru Matcovschi is the golden pantheon of Moldova and the whole Romanian area,” he added.
Municipal councilor and stage manger Sandu Grecu said Dumitru Matcovschi was an example of modesty that should be followed by some of the politicians. The poet passed away satisfied with what he left behind, but he suffered a lot because of the political situation in the country.
