PM Dancila to work with ministers to make Romania a more attractive place for investments

Prime minister Viorica Dancila on Thursday said during her visit to the Ulmi (southern Dambovita County, ed. n.) construction site where the Arctic company is building the largest home appliance factory in continental Europe, that together with the ministers in her Cabinet she is looking for solutions for Romania "to become a more attractive place for investments."

"It is an important event, not only for the Dambovita County, but for the entire country, because this shows the openness the investors have to put their money in Romania and the fact that the PSD-ALDE [Social Democratic Party, major at rule, Alliance of Liberals and Democrats, minor at rule - ed.n.] coalition's government, through the state aids, is backing these investments. I hope that this first investment I partake in and which, like I said, is very important, from both the standpoint of the Romanian-Turkish relations (...) and from the point of view of the economy, of the job creation, of the production that is taking place in Romania, (...) is giving a kick off to several investments both in the county - and I'm saying this because I'm going to participate in other meetings in the county - and shows involvement on behalf of the local authorities in creating conditions for the investments here," the Premier said.

Dancila added that through such spot visits she has the opportunity to talk to the investors and learn about the problems they encounter.

"At the same time, [the visits, ed. n.] offer me the chance to learn about obstacles staying in the way of investments in Romania, both of Romanian investors and the foreign ones. Like I said from the very beginning of my investiture as PM, I'll work with my team of ministers to find solutions for Romania to become an increasingly attractive place for Romanian and foreign investments," Dancila said.

Premier Viorica Dancila is paying a visit on Thursday in the southern County of Dambovita to several commercial companies as well as to the Arctic Company's building site at Ulmi, accompanied by ministers Rovana Plumb, Lucian Sova and Eugen Orlando Teodorovici.AGERPRES(RO - author: Cornelia Dumitru, editor: Diana Dumitru; EN - author: Maria Voican, editor: Simona Iacob)
