Scurtule, nu te supara dar de la ultima revolutie autentica, cea franceza ca de acolo s-a inspirat socialismul utopic si apoi comunismul, nu cred sa mai aiba loc vreodata in lume alta revolutie.
Cea din dec.89 care a fost, sau nu prea fost, e alta poveste.
Iar o revolutie adevarata trebuie sa inceapa din noi, din mintea si sufletul nostru pana sa izbucneasca la scara pupulara. Ori, cum bine vezi, cati romani atatea caractere si optiuni, cate "bordeie atatea obicee", s-a prostit de tot poporul asta in 50 de ani de indobitocire dogmatica, programata si va mai dura multa vreme sa se destepte precum in Imnul national.
Cel mult se poate pregati o revolutie intelectuala, ideologica, "de catifea", de saten, dematase...

Daca faci sex cu 3 femei odata ,asta revolutie

Eu facui revolutia din 89 in strada, deci nu ma derobez de la repetir, daca e cazul.
Va fac insa atenti la o chestie.
Cand francezii l-au ghilotinat pe saracu' Ludovic al 16-lea, tocmai ii pregateau terenul unui nene numit Napoleon, trecand prin cativa ani de gubern revolutionar si mai ales prin teroarea lui Robespierre, care nene a naclait revolutia cu reputatia ca a ucis in 3 ani cam cat Inchizitia spaniola in 300. So then, saracu' Louie daduse si el cateva lettres de cachet (adica: je, regele, bag pe x la bulau ca asa vreau eu) si li se parea aspru, si n-a putut pune impozite pe capul nobililor ca i s-a parut greu, si nah, marsh porcule la taiere.
Pai Boney aka Bonaparte a pus peste toata Franta impozite in draci, a confiscat arbitrar averi, si, coda con tutti, ca au murit francezi cu milioanele ca sa ajunga imperiul pana la Rusia mai fuse cum mai fuse, macar avea scuza ca rusii au sarit primii la omor, si inca cu aliati dupa ei, dar ca au murit ca mustele in Spania sute de mii si au ucis acolo civili cu sutele de mii ca sa-l faca pe fratele imparatului rege, asta va imaginati cum a sunat.
Faza misto este ca Napo a avut niste avantaje nesperate pentru natie. Si anume, inainte de el legile erau basically un fel de cutuma emisa de regele-stat. Dupa el, statul-rege a devenit obligat la doua chestii pentru care, cu tot necazul de atunci, francezii ii sunt inca recunoscatori lui Boney. Primul: dupa ce Boney a facut din sergent de grajduri maresal, pe urma printz de Ponte Corvo si pe urma rege al Suediei (dinastia e aceeasi de la el pana azi), dracu' i-a mai crezut pe aristocrati ca conteaza cum il cheama pe tac-tu. A inceput sa conteze ce stii tu sa faci. Al doilea avantaj: statul a inceput sa aiba obligatii in clar fata de cetateni. Constrangeri fiscale, ok, dar natia are dreptul sa stie pentru ce.
Deci, doua chestii, concetateni: meritocratie si, mai ales, daca o sfeclesti in razboi, in finante sau in administratie, din imparat francez ajungi ghertzoy pe insula Sf. Elena. Adica: responsabilitate.
Revolutiile pot costa cat am zis, si exemplul francez inca e unul de succes, ganditi-va ce-au patit rusii cu revolutia lor si n-arata deloc tentant. Astea fiind riscurile, sunteti siguri ca natzia e in stare sa stoarca beneficiile ? Daca da, eu marsez. Apropos, ma pricep si sa fabric explozibili. Am facut liceu de chimie, ce pana mea.

Vad ca la cei mai multi dintre d-stra nu va surade o iesire in strada. Atunci inseamna ca ati gasit o alta solutie. Care ar fi aceasta. Ca daca sperati in revolutii morale, intelectuale sau de care or mai fie ele asteptati degeaba. Revolutiile de genul celor propuse pana acum n-or sa se faca niciodata. Ba din contra. Romanul se va strica si mai tare. Ce l-a impiedicat pa roman sa evoluze pana acum din punct de vedere moral? Sau a evoluat si eu nu stiu? Mie mi se pare ca este invers.Si-a pierdut su ultima farama de moralitate pe care o avea pana l-a impuscat pe Ceausescu.

EU hopes spur new revolution
By Christopher Condon
Published: February 23 2005 07:49 | Last updated: February 23 2005 07:49

Somehow, the most dramatic and violent of the anti-communist uprisings that erupted in eastern Europe in 1989 and 1990 managed to provide the smallest democratic pay-off. Many Romanians now refer to it as the "stolen revolution".
Since then the country has been run mostly by ex-communists, though liberals and anti-communists had their chance, as well. Whatever their stripe, successive governments either resisted change or proved incompetent, allowing the 1990s to pass as a lost decade.
Under heavy pressure from the International Monetary Fund and the European Union, which Romania is keen to join, the last government finally took important steps and laid a foundation for economic growth. Yet, political leaders still avoided accountability, indulged in or excused corruption and delayed many fundamental political and economic reforms.

Romania, it seemed, remained haunted by the legacy of Nicolae Ceausescu.

In December, that may have changed when Traian Basescu, a former sea
captain, was elected president in a stunning victory over Adrian Nastase, the incumbent prime minister. A coalition government, led by Mr Basescu's Alliance for Justice and Truth, took power soon after. It immediately pledged to lower taxes, fight corruption and make other key reforms.
Combined with Romania's approaching membership in the European Union and solid prospects for economic growth, this is giving rise to hopes that, 15 years after Ceausescu's execution, Romania may finally have reached a decisive turning point.
The government showed its seriousness by rushing to conclude a coalition agreement with two smaller parties in order to implement a radical tax package before the year's end. This was crucial as tax code changes can be introduced in Romania only on January 1.

So, hours after being sworn in on December 29, the cabinet approved the introduction of a flat 16 per cent tax on both personal income and corporate profits. The government hopes the changes will help spur investment and reduce Romania's rampant tax fraud.
Mr Basescu's cabinet choices sent another important signal. In addition to avoiding, for the most part, figures associated with past governments, the president awarded several top posts to relative youngsters. He appointed a 40-year-old finance minister, a 36-year-old foreign minister and a 44-year-old human rights activist as justice minister.
"We can finally speak about a transition," says Calin Tariceanu, the prime minister. "A new political generation has come into power that has no links with the past."
It will take more than a few young faces, however, to convince Romanians that the country has turned a crucial corner ? a point Mr Basescu readily concedes. "I also have this feeling that we have made a break with the past, but a feeling is not reality," he says. "The key will be if my administration can prove this with action, if we can make changes as fast as possible."
Much is at stake both for Mr Basescu's government and for the country. In April Romania is to sign a historic accession treaty with the EU. This sets the stage for full membership in 2007 if the country can stick to promised reforms. A qualified majority of EU members can, however, postpone entry by a year if the government stumbles in addressing any of nine specific problem areas.

They include corruption, judicial independence, social security, border security, state aid and environmental protection.
Those same reforms will be painful, costing jobs and causing prices to
rise. In addition, EU membership may initially provide a shock, especially given the comparatively low bar set by the EU for Romania's entry. EU decisions on enlargement have always relied on a mix of technical and political considerations.

Candidates are required to meet a level of demonstrated readiness that can vary depending on the political willingness among members to open the club's doors. In Romania's case, some commentators say the EU diluted the formula in favour of political considerations more drastically than ever before, meaning Romania will be the least prepared country to join the union.
In his recently published book Theft of a Nation, Romania since Communism, British academic Tom Gallagher argues that the EU may regret lowering its standards in order to rush Romania's accession. But, he adds, Romanian companies may suffer the most for their lack of readiness for full exposure to the common market.
All the more reason, then, that the government should proceed quickly with reforms that reduce the state's distortion of the economy through bureaucratic interference, state aid and corruption.
A more level playing field now would give healthy companies more time to prepare for EU membership. Fortunately for Mr Basescu, many companies are already thriving despite those distortions. The economy is expected to grow 5.5 per cent this year, following on last year's 8 per cent expansion.

A bumper harvest, remittances from Romanians working abroad and a credit boom all explain part of that burst but it also includes, say economists, a healthy level of sustainable growth.
Recent privatisation deals struck by the previous government should begin to benefit the economy, as should a continued expansion of credit for companies and households. A heavy preference for foreign currency loans, however, has added an uncomfortable level of risk to the banking sector.

The government is also counting on the lower corporate tax rate to attract more foreign investment, especially in export-oriented manufacturing and services.
In short, circumstances are converging in Romania to justify more optimism than at any point since the 1989 revolution. Still, the government's task is enormous. "The most dramatic process of
modernisation Romania has ever gone through," says Mihai-Razvan Ungureanu, the young historian turned foreign minister. And Romanians have had their hopes dashed before. As one European diplomat put it: "Yes, it could be a turning point for Romania. But they could still screw it up."

Bucharest: Plan to transform a brutalist image
By Christopher Condon
Published: February 23 2005 07:54 | Last updated: February 23 2005 07:54

In a region known for its elegant and increasingly restored cities, the
Romanian capital is, unfortunately, an ugly duckling among the swans.
Instead of dazzling visitors with art deco or baroque, Bucharest
overwhelms them with brutalist architecture. Add the dust, the traffic and
the ubiquitous trash and the city once described as the Paris of the east
is now sometimes referred to jeeringly as the New Delhi of the west.
Snide comments are not the only consequence. Though Bucharest is
prospering, city officials worry that the capital's rough appearance is
holding back the local economy. "Bucharest has an image problem," says
Adrian Bold, the city's chief architect. "It doesn't help attract
investors."
It does, however, have a neglected historic quarter ripe for
redevelopment. Most promising is the Lipscani district, once the grounds
of a 16th century royal palace built by Vlad Tepes, the Wallachian prince
who inspired the Dracula tale. The ruins of the palace remain, as well as
scores of 18th and 19th century houses along narrow, cobble-stoned streets
named for medieval guilds and merchant groups.
The city also has a plan, announced late last year, that aims to transform
the neighbourhood over the next two years and with it, Mr Bold hopes, the
image of the capital. City Hall has secured ?10m from the European Bank
for Reconstruction and Development to rebuild the area's decrepit
infrastructure, pedestrianise most of the streets and add small parks and
fountains.
The capital hopes to spark additional private investment by selling prime
real estate outside the historic quarter to developers on the condition
that they also invest in the Lipscani section. The idea is modelled, says
Mr Bold, on the scheme used to redevelop London's Docklands.

Plans for the Lipscani neighbourhood will only be the start.
According to Marinela Berza, head of the city's urban planning office, it
represents a 12 hectare pilot project, with the entire plan aiming to
redevelop 57 hectares in central Bucharest.
So far, property agents are intrigued but sceptical. Similar plans
surfaced a decade ago, but government officials always seemed to drop or
block the project. Funds mysteriously disappeared. This time, however, may
be different. A series of crucial factors are lined up to support, rather
than undermine the plan.
For starters, Romania is finally moving to resolve thousands of cases of
restitution stemming from communist-era property seizures. Many of these
cases, bogged down in the country's corrupt courts and opposed by the
previous government, had turned investment in historic properties into a
hazardous business.
The government, elected in December, not only supports restitution but is
also acting to clean up the courts. It also helps that Traian Basescu, the
president, was previously mayor of Bucharest. Unsurprisingly, the
government energetically supports the plan. The previous administration
treated Bucharest as enemy territory, refusing to help finance investments
or grant guarantees necessary for outside financing.
Equally important, Bucharest is booming. In addition to the explosion of
retail outlets, homes and office buildings, money is also flowing into
cafes, restaurants and galleries.
The nightlife has developed a distinct buzz, catering to the capital's
nouveau riche and expatriate crowd. But it still lacks a centre of
gravity. That could be the Lipscani district if the city follows through.
While some have their doubts, others have already begun investing. The
area's prices have doubled in the last year to ?600 to ?800 per square
metre, according to Adina Covaceanu, an investment sales broker for
Colliers International. That is, however, slightly misleading. Buyers
typically have to invest another ?400 per square metre to repair 60 to 80
years of neglect.
Additionally, Bucharest's property market is heating up so quickly that
there are plenty of easier ways to make money in town, drawing funds away
from the historic district.
Dragos Dragoteanu, general manager of Euroest, a property brokerage, says
most investors prefer to buy empty plots and build residential or office
space.
This allows larger single-project investments and avoids the hassles
associated with restoring historically protected structures. "It's a lot
less complicated," he says. Yet, there is no denying the romantic draw of
Lipscani and the potential it represents for a city desperately in need of
a facelift. "It has a character all its own," says Ms Covaceanu.
"There are all sorts of gems throughout the old town just waiting to be
polished off."

Altex: How to be a multi-millionaire
By Christopher Condon
Published: February 23 2005 07:13 | Last updated: February 23 2005 07:13

The lure of the west is still strong for Romania's brightest young
graduates in spite of the recent inflow of investments and jobs. But back
in the early 1990s, when the country was a political mess and the economy
in a shambles, the lure was overpowering.
Sitting in his favourite fish restaurant in Bucharest, Dan Ostahie
remembers watching his sister and her husband emigrate to the US in 1992.
Each had a technical degree; she now works for Oracle, he for Cirrus
Logic. Mr Ostahie, a native of Piatra Neamt, a small city in north-east
Romania, was convinced that he would soon follow.
Of his 44 classmates in the electronics and telecommunications department
of Bucharest Polytechnic University, he estimates that at least 70 per
cent went abroad.
"I also wanted to leave," he says. "The dream was to go to the US."
He was, however, distracted by a small business venture he had launched
back in Piatra Neamt importing, repairing and selling used western
televisions. Focused on the job at hand, Mr Ostahie never did leave. Just
over a decade later, it is hard to see how he could have done better
living the American dream.
A boyish 38, he has built his company, Altex, into the country's largest
retail chain for electronics, white goods and home appliances. He is also
one of the country's wealthiest men, with a net worth estimated at between
?70m and ?80m.
The story of how Mr Ostahie went from student repair boy to
multi-millionaire is an impressive tale of resourcefulness, courage and
good timing, with a few acts still to come.
Now that Altex is several steps ahead of the multinational retailers just
now hitting the market, he may soon face a big decision as the company
becomes a prime target for acquisition.
Such a future was completely unimaginable in 1991 when, through a friend
of a friend, he managed to buy a truckload of clapped out televisions from
Switzerland with his $2,000 life savings. He quickly made his money back
but demand so outpaced his meagre supply he decided to take a loan.
Sceptical of the young Mr Ostahie and with little experience in lending to
small companies, the local bank demanded collateral. Much to his mother's
disapproval, Mr Ostahie's father agreed put up the family house for
$10,000. He had 30 days to repay.
"I did it because I enjoyed it," Mr Ostahie recalls, "first for the
technical repair and then I found I liked sales." The repairs, he says,
were sometimes difficult, but the sales came easily. "You could sell as
many as you could import. The market was like a sponge," he says.
He made his first deadline, to his mother's relief, and was soon able to
borrow more. Eventually, he diversified into household appliances. In
1994, he took the next logical step, opening a shop and importing new
goods. He struck a deal to sell goods for Rotel, the Swiss electronics
maker, whose representative acted like a business mentor to him.
Gradually, the number of shops grew to 34 by the end of 2001.
Until then, Mr Ostahie's success could be attributed to his own energy and
pluck. Good timing then came into play as privatisation of the banking
sector sparked an explosion in retail lending. He arranged Altex's first
consumer credit deal in 2002, and sales took off. "It was like putting up
the sails with the wind blowing in the right direction," he says.
Turnover leapt from ?16m in 2001, to ?35m in 2002, and to an impressive
?115m in 2003. Mr Ostahie projects sales this year to hit ?200m. Altex
now operates 125 shops ? 25 fully owned ? in 70 cities and towns. The
company has also opened four huge stores of 2,000 sq m to 4,000 sq m under
the name Media Galaxy, with a fifth set to open this month. It plans to
open shops in Serbia and Bulgaria in the next two years possibly followed
by Macedonia and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
With companies such as Germany's MediaMarkt and the UK's Electroworld
expanding in the region, it seems natural that he will field takeover
offers. Mr Ostahie, who owns 100 per cent of Altex shares, seems quite
open to the idea.
"Of course, there will be a chance to sell. The big question is whether I
would stay with the company or go. But I can handle either decision."
The young tycoon, who talks as eagerly about wine as his business, sounds
ready to try something new but not another start-up. "I will never be able
to start from scratch again. I have done that already," he says.
He is also showing no signs of wanting to emigrate.

Economy: A big effort to make up for lost time
By Christopher Condon and Alex Fak
Published: February 23 2005 07:17 | Last updated: February 23 2005 07:17

Adriana Iliescu, the 67-year-old retired history professor who in January
became the oldest woman known to have given birth, may seem an odd sort of
an inspiration.
But her country is trying to do something rather similar. Romania wasted
its post-Ceausescu youth. Privatisation was slow and erratic, corruption
went unpunished and bureaucrats thrived in the tangle of regulations.
Investment was flooding out, not coming in.
It is now trying to make up for lost time. A dynamic government elected in
December and led by the centrist Alliance for Justice and Truth is pushing
wholesale reform. It hopes to usher the country into the European Union as
quickly as possible and to reshape a growing but distorted and unbalanced
economy.
For all its flaws, the previous government can take credit for laying some
of the foundation. The Social Democrats, under pressure from the
International Monetary Fund and Brussels, cut the official budget deficit
to about 1.5 per cent of gross domestic product in 2004. Inflation has
dropped from 55 per cent in 1999 to under 10 per cent.
The Social Democrats also belatedly cleaned up and began selling off the
banking sector. A subsequent credit boom, combined with a steady flow of
remittances from Romanians working abroad, has helped the economy expand
by more than 5 per cent every year since 2001.

Growth for 2004 is likely to have topped 8 per cent, mostly on strong
demand, though up to 2 per cent is due to a bumper harvest that followed a
drought in 2003. The government's growth target for 2005 is 5.5 per cent.
In October the EU declared Romania a "functioning market economy". Bond
yields and lending rates have fallen markedly.
In November, Fitch Ratings gave Romania its first ever investment grade
rating. Capping the positive run, the EU decided in December to open its
doors to the Balkan country on January 1 2007, though entry can be delayed
by a year if the government fumbles additional reforms.
Romania remains, however, an acutely poor country where the average net
wage is just $180 a month and annual GDP per capita just $3,090.
Registered unemployment has fallen over the last four years but so has
employment.
Bucharest and several of the country's larger cities are thriving, with
construction and retail sectors experiencing an unprecedented boom. But
the picture is much bleaker for rural Romania and is likely to get worse
before it gets better. One-third of employment in the country and 15 per
cent of GDP is tied up in the declining agricultural sector.
Moreover, though foreign investment has risen neatly to ?3bn in 2004, it
comes mainly on the back of one-off privatisations in the energy sector,
much of which will initially cause job losses as new owners pare down
bloated companies. Another significant portion of FDI has poured into
contract manufacturing in textiles and shoe making, low-skill sectors that
are likely to move further east before long.
"Romania is a country where foreign investment goes primarily into
privatising state-owned assets and using cheap labour," says Gabor Hunya
of the Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies
With the end of large-scale privatisation nearing, Romania must attract
more greenfield investments in export-oriented manufacturing and services
that demand higher skills.
Otherwise, the country may face real difficulty in creating jobs and
financing its current account deficit which rose to more than 8 per cent
of GDP at the end of last year.
Inter-company and tax arrears, allowed to balloon by flaccid tax
collection and weak bankruptcy laws, represent another dangerous
distortion of the economy. By some estimates, arrears equal 40 per cent of
GDP.
Not unlike Ms Iliescu, the elderly mother, the new government has launched
a last-minute Stakhanovite effort, hoping to remove constraints on
business, level the playing field and raise transparency.
Traian Basescu, the president, has announced a war on corruption and
slashed taxes. Corporate profit taxes have fallen from 25 to 16 per cent
in an attempt to spur investment. Personal income taxes have dropped to a
flat 16 per cent from between 18 and 40 per cent, a move designed to lure
tax cheats into the system. Tax evasion is so widespread in Romania that
the real economy is estimated to be nearly twice the size of official GDP.
Plans are afoot to toughen tax collection, tip the legal advantage from
debtors to creditors, beef up bankruptcy rules and make labour laws more
flexible for employers.
Changes will also come for capital markets. Romania will open its capital
account this year, giving foreign investors direct access to local
currency deposits and the ability to buy and sell domestic debt.
The new government is also planning to breathe life into the local
equities market by selling minority stakes in state-owned companies
currently up for sale and others already majority privatised. Stakes in
the savings bank CEC, oil company SNP Petrom and telecoms company
RomTelecom could hit the exchange as early as this year.
Yet even if the tax cuts, anti-corruption fight and capital markets
measures prove successful, the centrist government has a long way to go
before establishing its credibility and improving the business climate.
"I do hope we will not see these tax cuts reversed a few months from now.
One can never quite be certain in Romania of how things will evolve," says
Patrick Leonard, tax partner at KPMG in Bucharest.
Others point out that Romania's smothering bu- reaucracy will take years
to change.
"Investors probably have the correct impression that things here are very
Byzantine," says Matei Paun, managing partner at BAC, an investment
advisory firm.
Yet the new government is saying all the right things. Ionel Popescu, the
finance minister, told the FT that the state should act "more like a
referee than like a player in the economy".
President Basescu says that "the state has to privatise as much as
possible. The state is a disaster when it involves itself in business".
But for now, these are just plans and, while the government is clearly
ambitious, it may also prove unstable.
The alliance's coalition of convenience with two smaller parties holds a
very thin majority in parliament, and its popularity may fade as it takes
tough steps to win EU membership in 2007, such as raising energy prices.
Investors, like that dawdling Ms Iliescu, can be forgiven for taking their
sweet time

Politics: Surprise victory for a 'wild political animal'
By Christopher Condon
Published: February 23 2005 07:21 | Last updated: February 23 2005 07:21

The colour was purely coincidental but it certainly did not hurt.
Shortly after the Orange Revolution toppled ex-communists in Ukraine, the
Alliance for Justice and Truth, also sporting orange as its primary shade,
defied nearly every prediction to turn the same trick in Romania.
Led by Traian Basescu, the surprise winner of December's presidential
election, the Alliance has since formed a coalition with two smaller
parties and launched an ambitious series of reforms aimed at strengthening
the economy, securing EU membership and, says Mr Basescu, "making Romania
a democratic country in real terms".
Romanians toppled the boorish dictatorship of Nicolae Ceausescu in 1989
yet managed to replace it with a swamp of corruption and client politics.
The Alliance claims it will change that, but is it for real? In a country
familiar with disappointment, many are sceptical. Cynics say there are few
broad policy differences between the Alliance and the Social Democrats,
the party it defeated.
Many also fear the current coalition, led by a surprisingly youthful slate
of ministers, will repeat the disaster of the patchwork government of
1996-2000, an administration remembered chiefly for its paralytic lack of
unity and spectacular incompetence. The coalition has little room for
error with a three-seat majority in the lower house of parliament.

A different platform of stated policy goals, however, is not what Romania
necessarily needs. No one actually stood against fighting corruption,
encouraging investment or joining the EU. What most Romanians desire is
the political will needed to achieve those goals.
Mr Basescu, who served as transport minister and then mayor of Bucharest,
may be the man to deliver. "He is a credible guy ? more so than I would
have given him credit for before the elections," says one European
diplomat.
A former oil tanker captain with a no-nonsense approach and an unpolished
form of charisma, he is not afraid to give bold orders and take risks. He
jumped into the presidential race only in October, after Theodor Stolojan,
the Alliance's first candidate, withdrew citing health problems.
"He took responsibility for running when no one believed in him and he
won," says Dorel Sandor, a political analyst who served as a paid adviser
to Mr Basescu's campaign. "He is a wild political animal."
In his first two months in office, Mr Basescu has used his bully pulpit to
great effect. He has championed a government anti-corruption drive and
warned civil servants to follow the law and not politics. This has ruffled
feathers, but it has also struck a chord with the public. The Alliance's
popularity has skyrocketed. Mr Basescu has, in turn, used this to great
advantage by threatening his own coalition partners with new parliamentary
elections should they think twice about supporting the Alliance's
legislative agenda.
Given the Alliance's popularity, some believe he should call a snap
election even without such pretext, but that is unlikely. In spite of the
temptation to reach for an outright majority in parliament, the Alliance
has pressing business. Romania must finalise its accession treaty with
Brussels, due for signing in April, and continue reforms in order to keep
accession, itself, on track for January 2007. A slip could cause EU
members to delay Romania's entry for a year. As for his cabinet ministers,
in a country eager for a break with the past, their youth and inexperience
may prove an advantage.
"What Romania needs at the moment are people who are determined to rebrand
the country," says Mihai-Razvan Ungureanu, the 36-year-old foreign
minister.
In any case, not all the cabinet ministers lack grey hair. Calin
Tariceanu, 53, the prime minister, has significant experience both in
politics and business without being tainted by accusations of corruption.
As a low-key personality, he also complements Mr Basescu, letting the more
flamboyant president dominate the spotlight while he has got down to work
in relative quiet.
The quiet is, however, unlikely to last. Mr Tariceanu has promised to
enforce bankruptcy rules and strengthen tax collection. Under its
accession treaty with the EU, Romania will also be obliged to end certain
industrial subsidies and nearly double energy prices. The prime minister's
true test will come after he follows through on reforms that he admits
will be "extremely painful".
Another intriguing question is whether the Social Democrats will be ready
to take advantage when the government's popularity fades. Following its
shock defeat, the party that ruled Romania for all but four of the last 15
years, is facing its first real internal crisis.
Most observers believe Ion Iliescu, the former president, who was elected
to the senate, and Adrian Nastase, former prime minister and now speaker
of the lower chamber, are engaged in a battle for control while other,
more modernising voices are also looking for an opening. "They could end
up transforming themselves or they could divide," says Mr Sandor. "At this
point it is difficult to envisage them [re-emerging] in the short term."
Still, the Social Democrats claim 600,000 members and enjoy wide support
among wealthy business figures, especially outside Bucharest. The party is
almost certain to make an eventual comeback.

Governance: Coming to terms with corruption
By Christopher Condon
Published: February 23 2005 07:25 | Last updated: February 23 2005 07:25

It is the most often cited problem facing Romania. It infects the most
mundane of public services and the largest of public contracts. In
distorts the economy, twists the administration of justice and contributes
significantly to poverty by sapping public and private resources. It is,
of course, corruption.
In its quest to join the European Union, however, Romania has pledged to
confront the problem. A government led by the centrist Alliance for
Justice and Truth, appears to be taking that pledge seriously. It must,
however, pass some important tests before it makes a substantial impact.
Since taking office in December Traian Basescu, the president, has
repeatedly urged police, prosecutors, regulators and judges to remove
politics from their work. "Institutions in Romania have a habit of looking
to the ruling party [for direction]. What I say now is: 'Look at the law
and act accordingly'," he says.
The president surprised his own party and delighted rights groups by
appointing Monica Macovei as justice minister. Ms Macovei, formerly head
of the Romanian Association for the Defence of Human Rights, has long
called for anti-corruption measures and a more independent judiciary.
Now she will get a chance to implement "the reforms I was demanding when I
was on the other side of the barricades".

Earlier this month the government lifted the immunity from prosecution
privilege that former cabinet ministers enjoyed. Concrete cases have also
been launched. A former local leader for the Social Democrats, the
previous ruling party, was recently detained and charged with alleged
abuse of office and making false written statements.
In January police opened a more important criminal investigation against
several executives at Rafo Onesti, an oil refining company. Officials say
Rafo evaded ?480m in taxes by selling petrol off the books to black
market distributors. The company has denied the charge.
Calin Tariceanu, the prime minister, says he wants a team of investigators
experienced in tackling corporate fraud, possibly from Britain, France or
Germany, to help unravel the layers of offshore companies and complex
accounting the company has constructed, in his view, to hide corruption.
According to Jonathan Scheele, head of the European Commission's
delegation in Bucharest, the government's handling of Rafo will be watched
closely. "This is a very important test case," he says. "It is important
for the business environment, for the new government's ability to collect
taxes and for fighting corruption."
Dorel Sandor, a political analyst, agrees. He believes success in
prosecuting Rafo and a few other high-profile cases will have enormous
impact. "Basescu doesn't have to win a fight against 200 people, just 20.
After that the market for corruption will be changed," he says.
Mr Tariceanu says his government will also review ?3.6bn worth of state
contracts with three large western companies. The contracts are with
Germany's EADS to build a border security system for ?1bn, France's Vinci
in a ?500m motorway construction project and with the US company Bechtel
for a separate ?2.1bn motorway project.
All three contracts were signed by the previous government, which used
loopholes in the public procurement law to award the contracts without
competitive tender. Mr Tariceanu has not accused any of the companies of
corruption, but says the prices involved are too high. At the same time,
however, diplomats are warning the new government not to turn the
anti-corruption drive into a political vendetta.
Then there is the other great issue ? the 1989 revolution ? that any
Romanian government must address if it wants to come clean with its
citizens. Hundreds of millions of dollars in state funds, mostly under the
control of security services, are believed to have vanished after the
hasty execution of Nicolae Ceausescu.
But the mystery of the revolution is not only about money, it is also
about the truth surrounding the downfall of Ceausescu and the murky and
violent transition of power that followed.
Most Romanians are convinced the full story has been covered up by
political, military and intelligence officials with secrets to hide.
Mr Basescu says he is willing to open up classified government files and
that much will be revealed in the coming months.
"For me it is very simple: Ask the state institutions to put the truth on
the table," he says. If they resist, Mr Basescu says he "will make it very
difficult for them." Asked why he can be trusted to when past presidents
have failed, he says "because I was not involved. I watched the revolution
on television."

Memorandumul CIA din 29 noiembrie 1989












La 29 noiembrie 1989, CIA alcatuia un memorandum - declasificat doar partial in prezent - care facea o ampla descriere a situatiei din Europa de Est aflata in plin proces de destructurare a blocului sovietic. Memorandumul a fost alcatuit inainte de intalnirea liderilor de la Washington si Moscova - George Bush si Mihail Gorbaciov - care a avut loc langa insula Malta. Memorandumul amintit are un titlu sec, "Europa de Est inainte de intalnirea de la Malta - 29 noiembrie 1989", insa cuprinde o serie de indicii cu privire la directiile in care era programata evolutia Europei de est in urma cu 20 de ani. In mod frustrant datele referitoare la Romania din acest memorandum sunt extrem de sumare, mare parte din aceasta sectiune a documentului CIA nefiind facuta publica.CehoslovaciaCadrul general: Presiunea publica masiva, inclusiv o lovitura de succes ce a avut loc saptamana aceasta, au dus la votul istoric din Parlament ce a dus la incheierea dominatiei unui singur partid. Conducerea demoralizata a fost curatata de membrii din vechea garda iar diviziunile in randul guvernului si Partidului Comunist se adancesc. Opozitia s-a coalizat in jurul unui grup de reformatori si disidenti intitulat Forumul Civic, care solicita alegeri libere, o presa libera, o economie de piata si incetarea monopolului Partidului Comunist. Opozitia va contiuna sa faca presiuni in saptamanile urmatoare in vederea accelerarii procesului de liberalizare. (sters din documentul oficial)Urmatorul eveniment cheie: Incurajati de succesul loviturii nationale, liderii opozitiei vor urmari atent modul in care premierul Adamec isi va onora angajamentul de a forma un guvern de coalitie transparent pana la data de 3 decembrie si va introduce o serie de reforme democratice. Se asteapta ca noul guvern sa actioneze foarte repede si sa intocmeasca un program pentru alegerile democratice, in caz contrar fiind mai mult ca sigur tinta unor noi presiuni publice. Membri reformisti vor insista asupra organizarii congresului extraordinar al partidului ce a fost fixat pentru data de 26 ianuarie. In mod sigur, in cadrul congresului, acestia vor incerca excluderea tuturor conservatoristilor pentru a putea instaura un Comitet Central favorabil reformelor. (sters din documentul oficial)



Valul de revolutii din blocul comunist din anul 1989 a beneficiat de



"organizarea" superputerilor SUA si RusiaGermania de EstCadrul general: Avand de-a face cu o intensificare a demonstratiilor pe scara larga si o crestere a numarului emigrantilor care pleaca in Vest, plus o crestere a rebeliunilor in propriile randuri, noua conducere din Germania de Est a promis introducerea unor reforme fara precedent, menite sa deschida sistemul politic si sa descentralizeze sistemul economic. Contactele cu Germania de Vest s-au intensificat, pe diferite fronturi, ca si discutiile despre o posibila reunificare. Populatia va pune presiuni asupra regimului pentru a organiza alegeri democratice intr-un viitor cat mai apropiat. (sters din documentul oficial) Urmatorul eveniment cheie: Este posibil ca in saptamanile urmatoare sa apara noi miscari in favoarea liberalizarii sistemului politic. Discutiile dintre guvern si opozitie, programate sa inceapa pe 7 decembrie, se vor axa in principal pe reforma electorala si probabil vor fi urmate de discutii in Parlament pe aceeasi tema, fiind posibil ca ele sa duca la intensificarea presiunilor in favoarea alegerilor libere. In cadrul congresului extraordinar al partidului programat pentru 15-17 decembrie este posibil ca liderul partidului, Krenz, sa fie exclus, fiind ales un Comitet Central reformist, iar programul partidului va fi restructurat. Este posibil sa apara o serie de voci care vor cere un vot in favoarea restructurarii partidului si transformarea sa intr-o organizatie social democrata. In timpul vizitei Cancelarului Kohl, programata sa inceapa pe 19 decembrie, ajutorul economic venit din Germania de Vest va fi chestiunea esentiala pentru Germania de Est. Probabil ca Germania de Est va face presiuni pentru reinceperea dialogului pe tema securitatii inter - germane si in mod sigur va tine cont de propunerea facuta de Kohl la inceputul saptamanii, referitoare la o confederatie germana. (sters din documentul oficial)Polonia



Actiunile lui Nicolae Ceausescu din decembrie 1989 sunt greu de explicat mai ales din prisma afirmatiei ca Securitatea stie ce s-a discutat la Malta



Cadrul general: Guvernul Mazowiecki, primul guvern polonez, de dupa razboi, ce nu este comunist, incearca sa scape treptat de sistemul de control stalinist si se pregateste pentru o miscare rapida catre economia de piata. In ciuda cresterii inflatiei si a reducerilor bugetare, in general populatia a ramas calma, dar apogeul rabdarii sale va fi in aceasta iarna. Cu siguranta Varsovia e multumita de ultimele suplimentari in privinta pachetului de ajutoare venite din Vest, dar este ingrijorata de capacitatile donatorilor din Vest de a-i asigura sprijinul necesar. (sters din documentul oficial)Urmatorul eveniment cheie: Varsovia isi va tine respiratia pana cand negocierile dintre F.M.I. si oficialii polonezi, ce vor fi reluate saptamana viitoare, vor duce la incheierea unui acord. Pana la sfarsitul anului, Varsovia vrea sa obtina o scrisoare de intentie care sa-i faciliteze obtinerea unor fonduri de stabilitate din partea Vestului, ei solicitand 1 miliard de dolari, precum si ajutor in vederea obtinerii unor imprumuturi de la bancile din Vest. Guvernul Mazowiecki a inteles faptul ca, avand in vedere actuala stare de fapt, un element cheie este obtinerea unui sprijin financiar - in special din partea Statelor Unite si Germaniei de Vest. Congresul Partidului Comunist, programat sa inceapa pe 27 ianuarie, va duce, foarte probabil, la o ruptura formala intre social-democrati si factiunile "dure", care va reduce influenta partidului in procesul de reformare. (sters din documentul oficial)UngariaCadrul general: La randul ei, Ungaria urmareste si ea sa puna punct dominatiei Partidului Comunist. Partidul Comunist a renuntat la politica dictatoriala, iar noua legislatie a pregatit terenul in vederea tranzitiei catre o democratie parlamentara, prin restructurarea si trecerea in legalitate a partidelor de opozitie. Cresterea liberalizarii Ungariei a dus la o reorientare a propriei politici externe si de aparare. Ultimele semnale indica o intensificare a consultarilor cu statele din Vest legate de chestiuni de securitate si o serie de probleme multilaterale, precum si discutii publice in privinta legaturilor Pactului de la Varsovia. O eventuala retragere din Pact este o tema de discutie deschisa, iar presiunile in favoarea retragerii vor fi din ce in ce mai puternice, in special dupa alegerile parlamentare de anul viitor. (sters din documentul oficial)Urmatorul eveniment cheie: Adunarea Nationala, care isi va incepe urmatoarea sesiune la mijlocul lunii decembrie, ramane cel mai important forum pentru discutarea reformelor propuse. Cel mai important punct al agendei va fi stabilirea datei alegerilor parlamentare de anul viitor - luna martie pare a fi un moment bun - care vor duce, foarte probabil, la infrangerea partidului socialist, ce este in prezent la putere, sau chiar excluderea acestuia din guvernul viitor. Adunarea va lua in discutie si programul economic guvernamental, dar in mod sigur va astepta pana dupa alegeri pentru adoptarea unor masuri dure, necesare stabilizarii pozitiei financiare delicate a Budapestei. (sters din documentul oficial)BulgariaCadrul general: Mladenov, noul lider al partidului, care l-a inlocuit in noiembrie pe Jivkov, cel care a detinut aceasta pozitie pentru o perioada foarte mare, a promis ca va reforma sistemul bulgar si a facut o serie de pasi pentru reducerea represiunilor si instalarea in diferite functii a unor membri de partid disidenti. Se pare ca el chiar incearca restrangerea sau descurajarea unor viitoare demonstratii publice si actiuni ale disidentilor. Liderii opozitiei, desi sceptici in privinta disponibilitatii lui Mladenov de a impune o serie de reforme radicale, ar putea astepta pana in momentul aflarii rezultatelor plenului partidului de luna viitoare pentru a decide daca mai ies sau nu in strada. (sters din documentul oficial)Urmatorul eveniment cheie: Plenul partidului din 11 decembrie si sesiunea Adunarii Nationale din 14 decembrie vor reprezenta un test in privinta intentiilor lui Mladenov. Probabil ca ii va elimina din biroul politic pe fostii lideri si va numi moderati in fruntea partidului si a guvernului. Poate ca regimul va incerca sa ia o serie de masuri pentru stabilizarea Bulgariei din punct de vedere financiar si optimizarea sistemului de aprovizionare cu bunuri pentru populatie, dar este putin probabil ca va adopta reforme economice importante. Aceste miscari i-ar lasa partidului pargiile puterii si i-ar oferii lui Mladenov "o gura de oxigen". (sters din documentul oficial)Iugoslavia si RomaniaTensiunile etnice si problemele economice continua sa ameninte stabilitatea Iugoslaviei. Procesul unui unui fost lider politic albanez, care este in desfasurare, a provocat noi ciocniri intre etnicii albanezi si fortele de ordine, precum si condamnarea represiunilor din Kosovo sustinute de sarbi, prin intermediul republicilor mai liberale din nord. Avand in vedere deteriorarea continua a economiei, legislatura federala nu poate ajunge la o intelegere in privinta programului propus de presedintele Markovic, referitor la reformele economiei de piata. In Romania, ultimul bastion de ultra - ortodoxie din Pactul de la Varsovia, la ultimul congres al partidului Ceausescu a fost reales, in unanimitate, ca presedinte, el fiind cel care a subliniat faptul ca respinge reformele politice si economice raspanite prin Europa de Est in prezent. Boicotarea lucrarilor congresului din partea ambasadorilor din Vest si al altora s-a reflectat in intensificarea izolarii internationale a Romaniei. In ciuda deteriorarii situatiei economice si a scaderii popularitatii lui Ceausescu, acesta nu are nici un contracandidat serios, iar situatia nu se va schimba pana cand el nu va parasi scena. (sters din documentul oficial)29 noiembrie 1989Actualizarea informatiilor legate de MaltaIn cadrul intalnirii de la Malta, Shevardnadze, Ministrul de Externe Sovietic, a declarat marti, pentru ziarul comuinist iatlian "Unita", ca la Malta el"nu va elimina" acordurile privind controlul armelor si ca "acest lucru este valabil si pentru armele ofensive si strategice". Acesta a continuat spunand ca in cazul in care se ia o decizie politica, ar putea fi demarate o serie de actiuni in acest sens "intr-un timp relativ scurt". (sters din documentul oficial) Legat de Germania, evolutiile din Europa de Est i-au determinat pe sovietici sa-si reconsidere atitudinea si se pare ca au dat generat o modificare a pozitiei acestora. (sters din documentul oficial) ... opiniile consilierilor lui Gorbachev penduleaza intre continuarea opozitiei in privinta discutiilor legate de o posibila reunificare si merg pana la acordul in privinta demararii unor discutii doar in momentul in care Europa devine stabila. (sters din documentul oficial)In privinta legii sovietice pentru emigratie, contrar asteptarilor, legislativul si-a incheiat sesiunea de marti fara a promulga aceasta masura.Exista totusi acordul general in privinta necesitatii unei legi privind liberalizarea emigratiei - chiar si pentru a indeplini conditiile premergatoare impuse de Washington pentru acordarera Clauzei Natiunii Celei Mai Favorizate - iar presa sovietica indica faptul ca nu exista mari divergente in privinta prevederilor acestei legi. Cu siguranta documentul va reprezenta o prioritate in cadrul sesiunii din februarie sau martie.In mod sigur Gorgachev spera ca cea mai mare parte a emigrantilor ce vor parasi U.R.S.S.-ul vor determina Washington-ul, ca intre timp, sa demareze procesul de acordare de beneficii comerciale.

În timpul desfãºurãrii revoluþiei române, alte state est-europene treceau în mod paºnic la democraþie; România a fost singura þarã din blocul estic care a trecut printr-o revoluþie violentã ºi care ºi-a executat conducãtorii

"Conform unui memoriu al unui membru al structurilor de atunci, în urma rãscoalei de la Timiºoara, un grup de generali de Securitate a profitat de oportunitatea de a lansa o loviturã de stat la Bucureºti. Lovitura de stat, aflatã în pregãtiri încã din 1982, era iniþial planificatã pentru ajunul Anului Nou, dar trebuia sã fie regânditã pe moment, ca sã profite de evenimentele favorabile. Conspiratorul-ºef, generalul Victor Stãnculescu, fãcea parte din cercul apropiat al lui Ceauºescu ºi se spune cã el ar fi fost cel care l-a convins pe dictator sã þinã mitingul din faþa clãdirii Comitetului Central, într-o piaþã care fusese înþesatã cu arme automate teleghidate. În timpul discursului lui Ceauºescu armele automate comandate de la distanþã trebuiau sã tragã la întâmplare în mulþime, în timp ce propagandiºtii trebuiau sã foloseascã ocazia ca sã instige mulþimea la sloganuri anticeauºiste."

Cambodgia

a devenit, intre 1975 si 1979, scena unuia dintre cele mai mari masacre ale secolului, comise de Khmerii Rosii, un grup comunist de guerila condus de monstrul numit Pol Pot (creatie a ideologiei revolutiei culturale din China). Pol Pot a declarat 'Anul zero', a desfiintat toate institutiile statului, de la banci pana la temple, a golit orasele, impuscand intelectualii si trimitand locuitorii in lagare de munca, unde, in conditii inimaginabile, au murit 2 milioane de oameni, adica 30% din populatia tarii.

Campiile mortii si piramidele de cranii ale sutelor de mii de cambodgieni exterminati au ramas in istorie ca simbol al genocidului sau holocaustului comunist.

| 17 December 2008 Totul a fost un joc de interese intre CIA si KGB, respectiv Regan si Gorbatschow. Acum in locul lui Ceausescu au venit mii de Ceuasesti (Becali, Tiriac, Prigoana, Geoana, Boc, Basescu.).



Emil Constantinescu

"17 decembie 1989, ziua în care primii români ºi-au vãrsat sângele pe strãzile Timiºoarei " . agitati de C I A si K G B . orbiti de visurile de carton ale occidentului. asa a inceput procesul de inrobire a poporului roman ! Asta e ! si ce o sa mai fie. vom vedea. Dumnezeu sa-i odihneasca pe cei morti.

Romania nu este singura in aceasta lume. Este atat de frumoasa ca ne surprinde si pe noi, cei care nu o meritam. revolutia este o inventie mediatica. si noi n-am fost buni in asa ceva. ne-au invatat altii. care ne-au transformat in sclavii lor. UE ne-a orbit si in doua zeci de ani a reusit sa ne transforme in niste jenante victime. romanii n-au invatat si nu vor invata curand sa fie uniti. cand afaceristii din Covasna ne numesc "romanii astia nenorociti" inseamna ca le-am permis prea mult. mergeti la ei acasa si renuntati sa vorbiti romaneste ca sa fiti servit. trebuie invatati minte, nu prin violenta, ci aratandu-le ca ne respectam tara si daca mai doresc privilegii de vizitatori sa-si puna pofta in cui. guvernarile de pana acum au gresit acceptand pentru interesele lor evident UDMR-ul, cu statut de tradator de aliante, ba cu unii ba cu altii, numai sa linga din banii publici ai romaniei. a trebuit sa treaca prea mult si culmea acum cand jocurile n-au mai tinut sunt tare nedreptatiti. ei sunt printre cei care au vrut ca plopul sa faca mere si rachita micsunele. tot timpul o luam de la capat, nu suntem organizati si ne mancam intre noi. cand vom invata din greselile de pana acum si sa fim uniti ca romani vom invinge si se vor inchina altii la noi. adevaratele revolutii sunt doar in cartile de istorie.

atingerea Zephyrului
Stimata Doamna (sau Domnisoara) va multumesc pentru datele informative atat in limba engleza cat si in limb romana. Este admirabil efortul pe care-l depuneti spre a ne informa. Dar cu toate acestea, va rog pe mine unul sa ma iertati, dar nu inteleg ideea pe care o transmiteti.Ne dati date despre cum s-au facut revolutii in alte tari,de cum s-au democratizat alte statealte state mai mult sau mai putin vecine tarii noastre dar nu ati pus punctul pe I.Aceste lucruri sunt cunoscute mai mult sau mai putin de romani. Eu unul nu vad importanta acestor informatii pe care le postati. Nu au nici o legatura cu acest popor roman care nu-si gaseste drumul in istoria moderna in derulare. Acest popor nu are nevoie de lectii de istorie ca acestea pe care D-stra incercati sa le sustineti. Aceste lectii ar trebui sustinute de-abia dupa ce Romania si-ar fi rezolvat problemele cu care ea se confrunta. Romania la ora actuala este ratacita.Nu stie pe ce drumuri s-o ia. Pentru ca sa-si revina ea trebuie sa-fi faca curatenia in casa la ea. In interior. Dupa aceea ar trebui sa priveasca afara si sa vada peste gard. Odata facut acest lucru poate deschide poarta si sa aleaga destinatia si drumul care--i convine. Dar ca o gospodina ce sunteti stiti ca atunci cand faceti curatenie o faceti incepand din coltul cel mai indepartat din ungherele cele mai ascunse dupa care va retrageti cu curatenia catre iesire ca sa puteti da afara gunoiul din casa. Dar pentru asta sunt ferm convins ca scoateti covoarele, le scuturati , mutati mobila ca sa stergeti pe sub ea sau pe dupa ea praful si panzele de paianjen. Deci .daca vreti sa sa o spun mai pe deadreptul, faceti dezordine.Iar numai dupa ce ati scapat de mizeria din casa puneti totul la locul lor in ordinea cuvenita.
Ori romania nu si-a facut niodata curatenie la ea in casa. Tot timpul ea s-a uitat in curtile vecine s-a plimbat pe la vecini,a muncit pe la vecini. iar ce a acumulat a venit si a depozitat intr-o casa mizerabila unde s-au adunat nu numai panze de paianjen ci soareci ,sobolani, serpi,care nu-i fac altceva decat sa-i distruga toata munca lui de pana atunci.
In 89 nu s-a facut decat dezordine. Cred ca ar trebui sa continuam cu curatenia inainte de a alege drumul avolutiei Romaniei spre un viitor

Desigur, astfel va inteleg si de sunteti cald cat sa renuntati la termoficare. Insiva dumneavoastra sunteti o madevarata microcentrala avand o combustie de invidiat, dar nu in strada, va rog, fiti mai pudic.

Ce ai ma, ai capiat. Gluma gluma, dar vad ca o iei razna. Ce ai?

Eu am facut o gluma si tu o iei cu mizerii. Stiu si eu sa te iau cu mizerii. Ai grija, ca nu sint cu bun simt cu cei care nu au. Ia-o mai civilizat ca intorc foaia. sau esti genul care scoate castanele din foc cu mina altora.

Sau nu stii ce e aia sa iesi in strada. Te pomenesti ca mergi pe case. Nu gust deloc glume de prost gust, si mai ales sa intinzi pelteaua cu mizerii.

Cei ce le interzic altora accesul la anumite aspecte ale vietii.....sint satui de acel aspect.
