The Republic of Moldova is currently experiencing a decisive moment in its evolution. Throughout the last four years, the country, being ruled by an authoritative political regime, reached a state of humiliation, isolation and poverty. At present, Moldova doesn’t have a functional market economy, and Europe considers us a state with a “sick” democracy. Time has come to choose among development and regression, dignity and lack of hope, European Integration and isolation.

Such circumstances impose new requirements towards the political class, as well as towards the whole society in the view of accomplishing the fundamental objective — avoiding a profound crisis and a complete isolation, which would be impending under the leadership of the retrograde Communist Party.

Moldova needs CHANGE and MODERNIZATION:

• replacing the authoritative political regime, represented by a Party belonging to the past, and having a compromised ideology that is dangerous for the society and democratic civilization;
• changing and upgrading the way of governing, which is still using a Soviet commanding administrative style;
• changing and modernizing the domestic and foreign policies, which would insure real stability in the society.

The creation of an authentic democratic state is feasible only on a strong economic ground. An impoverished and starving nation can not be free if it is preoccupied only with its physical survival. DEMOCRATIC MOLDOVA Bloc proclaims as the main objective of its economic policies — the eradication of poverty and insurance of a decent way of life for all citizens, as well as the establishment of a stable orientation towards welfare and sustainable development.

DEMOCRATIC MOLDOVA Bloc has concrete programmes targeting at solving the country’s problems and at its integration into the European Union.

On the first place — the citizen!

Any reform, any investment will be directed towards our primary objective- the welfare of the citizen! In this respect, DEMOCRATIC MOLDOVA Bloc:

• Will create 100 thousand new workplaces annually; will organise free of charge qualification and re-qualification courses, as well as a process of professional education for the unemployed.
• Will insure, up till the year 2009, an average salary per economy equal to 250–300 US dollars; will correlate the average salary of state budget workers with the average salary per economy; will index the salaries on a yearly basis, adjusting them to the inflation rate.
• Will increase the number of university scholarships from the State Budget by 30 % annually. The minimal scholarship will constitute the equivalent of 50 US dollars.

For workers in the agricultural field — pensions equal to those on a country level. It will unify the system of pension calculation for the citizens that retired before and after the year 1999, in order to insure equal pensions for equal work.

Family — the target of social policies!

The moral health of the society and the nation’s capacity to live in a modern world depend on the family’s durability. Social policies of DEMOCRATIC MOLDOVA Bloc will be mainly directed towards the protection of the family. In this respect, DEMOCRATIC MOLDOVA Bloc:

• Will exempt from taxes the citizens’ financial means expended for the construction and purchase of dwelling space, inclusively through mortgage crediting. For the socially vulnerable families, the construction of dwellings will be done on the account of state and local budgets.
• Will insure the rigorous observance of the principle of social support for low-income population by means of directed compensations, so that the level of payment for communal services does not exceed one third of the family’s budget.
• Will compensate, in proportion of 50%, the cost of facilities (communal services, fuel, current water, sewage, etc.) for families with an income lower that 500 lei per person;
• Will establish unique allowances in amount of 3000 lei, when the first child is born, and in amount of 1000 lei — for the second and following children.
• Will index the social insurance payments for disfavoured families.

• Will guarantee to the children from rural areas the same possibilities that the children from towns have: qualitative high-school studies, sport and artistic schools, access to Internet, to up-to-date knowledge.
• Will re-open kindergartens with prolonged programme; will modernize and equip them for an “early training” process, correlating with the school education process.
• Will guarantee equal chances for hiring, wages and women’s promotion to leadership positions. Will organise free of charge qualification courses from the unemployment insurance budget for women that return to work after post-natal vacation.

• Will guarantee the hiring of young specialists by means of tax facilities offered to economic agents.

Modern communities in a prosperous state!

The power of a state lies in the level of development of its localities. Republic of Moldova has the chance to become a developed state by adjusting the infrastructure of the latter to the level of European standards. In this respect, DEMOCRATIC MOLDOVA Bloc:

• Will establish a modern socio-cultural infrastructure in the localities. Will build and rehabilitate local roads, will insure the connection of each locality to national roads.

• Will perform the real division of powers by means of: consolidating the executive power, removing the bureaucracy and placing the public administration in the citizen’s service; increasing the responsibility of the Parliament; re-establishing the independence of judicial power, placing the latter outside political influences and insuring real security for the citizen. The judicial power will be independent and active in fighting corruption.

The peasants will benefit from credits and support in selling competitive agricultural products and in the application of some efficient irrigation systems.
• Will insure, in partnership with the private sector, the creation of 30 Centres (Packing Houses) for the collection, conditioning, preservation and selling of agricultural products, and the stimulation of export through the partial reimbursement of packing expenses.
