“There are city halls that can’t afford to pay salaries to their employees,” said Basescu.
According to the president, hundreds of villages were reorganized as communes in the past 21 years, although many of them lacked resources to support their activity.
Basescu highlighted many of these communes receive money from the Government to carry out basic public works.
The head of state said rural reorganization is needed to create communes able to finance their activity with their own resources and contribute to their development.
