National Press Review, 10 October

10 Octombrie 2011, 17:09

In the papers today - the latest revelations of the Justice scandal, we finally find out who is Snow White, but we also read about the new migrants in Europe.

In the Evenimentul Zilei we read: "Octopus of the Supreme Court blows Justice".

The investigation of the National Anticorruption Directorate over some corruption facts committed by judges revealed the improper relationships among lawyers, businessmen and magistrates.

You learn in the newspaper about the fortunes of the investigated judges.

And in the România Liberă we find revelations about the latest scandal of a "rotten system": which is the evidence that the prosecutors used to reprehend judges Gabriela Bârsan and Iuliana Puşoiu and we also read about the Gabriel Chiriac, the businessman for whom the two judges might have traded, and how he became close to the High Court.

From the Evenimentul Zilei we learn that the "Snow White" announced by Sebastian Lăzăroiu is no fairytale, but the New Republic Movement.

Former Minister of Labour announced its support in an open letter to the developer of the politic project, Mihail Neamţu.

This year's star is Agriculture, which has brought 12 billion euro to the state’s budget and saved the economic growth, according to the Ziarul Financiar.

Also in the Ziarul Financiar we read that the number of doctors in the private sector doubled in the last six years.

On the front page of the Adevărul we find the headline "United Europe's new migrants".

Who are they? The PIIGS country nationals: Portuguese, Italians, Irish, Greek and Spanish people.

Unlike Romanians, they go to work in richer countries for skilled labour.

And the wave is large enough so that in Ireland the joke "the last turns off the light" is valid.

On the same topic, also in the Adevărul, another article notes that in Europe, "the one way ticket changed into migration from state to state".

"Cyber-cops." A report from the Jurnalul Naţional about police coverts in the cyberspace specialised in catching hackers.

We read about how the "hard police" collaborate with the "soft police" on this mission.

The Curierul Naţional informs us on the changes brought by the new Civil Code regarding the conclusion and amending of a contract.

Judges are more involved and the procedures are slow, but the Code also brings advantages to the weaker party.

You can learn from the newspapers which are the new rights of bank customers.
