Business and Economy Review, No. 9
Automatically translated summary. The full text is available in Romanian.
Issue No. 9 of the Business and Economy Review analyses the main economic developments in Moldova's business environment during August and September 2005, including the dispute between the government and affected businesses over a decision to ban imports of second-hand goods.
In August, the business environment was marked by major disagreements between the government and those affected by its decision to ban imports of second-hand goods. Under public pressure, the government imposed a moratorium on the decision, but the problem was only frozen, not durably resolved.
In September, the business environment was the subject of intense public debate. The government and entrepreneurs blamed each other for the quality of the business environment, but the effect of this rhetoric on the real situation remains uncertain. The issue also examines other economic developments that marked the August-September 2005 period.
