Chisinau, 8 June /MOLDPRES/ - The Diaspora Days will be annually marked in Moldova in the end of the third week of August, under a cabinet decision approved at a today meeting.
An ordinary congress of the Diaspora will be held once in two years on the Diaspora Days. The committee for organizing the Diaspora Days, whose president is the government’s secretary general, was created too.
The need of the concerned draft is reasoned by the experience in organizing and carrying out the Diaspora Days (2014-2015) years and the sixth congress of the Diaspora from 2014, as well as Diaspora’s demands to establish another period for the events organized in August, dedicated to the Diaspora.
World Bank’s data shows that about 700,000 Moldovan citizens work abroad.
