The co-chairman of the People’s Party of the Republic of Moldova (PPRM) Valeriu Cosarciuc considers that the Leanca Government should be pressed from the very beginning. According to the politician, this executive was invested in a situation of crisis and should thus act more rapidly than a government installed in an ordinary way. The PPRM prepared a set of proposals that should be regarded as priorities during the Cabinet’s first 100 days in office. The proposals were presented by Valeriu Cosarciuc in a news conference at IPN.
The PPRM suggests that the Government over the next three months should focus on the economic problems. Elimination of corruption is a top priority and a set of laws is needed to implement the electronic payment system all over the country so that cash is used less and less.
The PPRM considers that the state institutions should provide services free of charge, while the licenses, authorizations and certificates for starting businesses should be annulled. There should be launched a continuous re-training program for dismissed and unemployed persons, while the people should be engaged quickly in different projects.
According to Valeriu Cosarciuc, the PPRM insists on the modification of the regulations concerning the distribution of the resources of the agriculture subsidization fund. The savings and loan associations should be allowed to apply for subsidies. Compensations should be immediately paid for sowing wheat and corn, by at most 400,000 lei per beneficiary.
Valeriu Cosarciuc, who is ex-minister of agriculture, believes that the state has enough money to increase the agriculture subsidization fund for 2013 by another 500 million lei. If the Government wants the people to see that it is thinking about them, it should implement the Government Decision of 2010 concerning the construction of the Chisinau Agrifood Center.
The PPRM also proposes removing all the barriers to export and including punishments for those who create such impediments in the Penal Code. It considers that the Government should not impose VAT on the import of raw material and that the VAT of 8% for agriculture must be restored.
The party suggests amending the Law on Oil Products so as to allow the entrepreneurial cooperatives set up by farmers to directly import fuel, and adopting the Law on Common Tax in Agriculture.
Valeriu Cosarciuc said they referred only to economic problems, but the current Government must act swifter so as to be able to do real things and to convince the people that they are not neglected.
