Chisinau, 3 February /MOLDPRES/ - Prime Minister Pavel Filip today participated in the opening of the 15th issue of the “Fabricat in Moldova” (Made in Moldova) exhibition, the government’s communication and media relations department has reported.
On this occasion, the prime minister said that he would undertake measures to back the Moldovan producers and so that the business environment works in friendly conditions in Moldova. “A long time ago, I had opportunity to attend this exhibition as an economic agent. Today, after exchanging opinions with business people present here, I found out that some problems had remained unsolved for years. Now, beyond declarations, we at the government are determined to work, to come up with concrete actions and bring results,” Pavel Filip said.
The prime minister highlighted the importance of the Free Trade Agreement with the European Union for Moldova’s economic development. “This fact opens new opportunities for the enterprises from Moldova to penetrate the European markets, but also impose us to have performance and quality. In fact, everybody should prove performance and quality, including we at the government, to be able to ensure a balance between the protection of the native producers and maintaining the freedom of press,” Pavel Filip said.
Among the first measures taken by the cabinet, the prime minister mentioned the introduction of a moratorium on state’s controls over enterprises for a three-month term. “On the period of this moratorium, we make sure that no abusive controls and intimidations are made, and we have a respite to come up with a better new law, which is to no longer allow injustices at economic agents. I assure you that other measures will follow, through which we will back the producers and not temporarily,” Pavel Filip added.
The Made in Moldova national exhibition, launched in 2002, is an instrument for promoting Moldovan goods and services. The 2016 issue of this event brought together about 300 participants.
