Forty thousand people examined for free within A Doctor for You campaign

Chisinau, 17 January /MOLDPRES/ - A number of 40,000 people have been examined for free within the campaign A Doctor for You, launched by the authorities last year. 

At the same time, in December 2018 alone, 3,000 mothers from all over Moldova received free of charge boxes with things needed for newly born children, within the governmental programme, A New Life, and the one-off child-birth allowances have been increased twice, from 3,000 lei to more than 6,000 lei, in the last years.   

Prime Minister Pavel Filip today made public information to this effect, three years after taking over the mandate. According to Filip, in 2018, 110 new ambulances were purchased and another 170 ones are to be bought this year.  

„We worked also on the segment of water and sewerage. In the last two years, more than 106,000 beneficiaries have been connected to the water supply network, which means 53,000 per year, seven-fold more than during the previous governances. For 2019, we are have set a twice as much serious goal: 100,000 people connected in one year,” the official noted.  

According to the prime minister, 1,200 families have already bought a dwelling within the First Home governmental programme and another 3,000 dwellings could be purchased throughout this year, which means that “three thousand of young families will remain at home, in Moldova.” Filip said.  

As for the repair of roads in Moldova, Filip gave assurances that the authorities had the necessary money for the modernization of 2,600 km of roads included in the Good Roads for Moldova 2 and the works would start as soon as the weather conditions allow this.
