I could give evidence in court if i had the opportunity. Everyone knows it, but in Romania people prefer not to talk about it - apparently thats unpatriotic. Almost every building project in that city is a result of bribery to allow sub par quality. Down town restaurant regularly pay bribe to health and safety inspectors. Public hospital doctors take bribe or they will let you die. And so on. Office workers may be ignorant of these facts but pretty much any honest business owner will tell you this. The city looks good, compared to the rest of Romania. Want to buy a property, Just declare a low value and pay the rest under the table. There are people who meant to recover communist confiscated land - the mayor’s friends have made sure that judges push trials so far in the future that the right to do so expires, and the list goes on. But hey gotta make it look good for foreign investors so they can bring over outsourcing jobs.
