Members of the discussion platform PAS Educational call on the people interested in the education sector of Moldova to give their vote to the joint candidate of the center-right opposition Maia Sandu. In a news conference at IPN, members of the platform said Maia Sandu is the only candidate in the presidential elections who really cares about the education system.

The members of the platform PAS Educational made a call for mobilization for voting, addressed to their colleagues from education. The call says Maia Sandu is a courageous person who showed that changes in education can be made even if they are sometimes painful and unpopular. She is an upright person who started the fight against corruption in education because she considers merit-based appraisal is the most important one. “Respond to this call. Let’s show that we are decided together with Maia Sandu and, by education of a high quality, we can give a new chance to this country,” stated Iurie Cristea.

According to lecturer Nicolae Rosca, of the State University of Moldova, the country is in a profound economic, social and political crisis. The blame for the degradation and poverty is borne exclusively by the political class. “The October 30 presidential elections are a new chance for Moldova. They are the chance for a new start and for removing the perverse politicians from power,” he stated.

Teacher Viorica Goras-Postica said the people are tired of choosing and believing those who lied during many years and those who ensured the own comfort when they came to power. Maia Sandu is the only one who says clearly that there are chances for fighting corruption. “We think education is the salvation for this people,” she said.

The members of the Platform said that Maia Sandu calls on the population to unite for a better future and not to allow to be divided according to ethnical, political or religious criteria.
