Councilor Exposes Potential Corruption in Chisinau Housing Scheme

Councilor Investigates Apă Canal Over Preferential Housing Allocation A municipal councilor from Chisinau, Ion Melnic, recently visited the Apă Canal headquarters to submit requests concerning the distribution of 100 apartments at preferential prices. His visit, documented in a video posted online, has raised questions about transparency and potential corruption within the public utility. Mr. Melnic's video shows him presenting documents related to the 2022-2025 anticorruption plan. He expressed concerns about the lack of public information regarding the selection process for the recipients of these apartments. "We are requesting concrete answers about who received these 100 apartments," Melnic stated in the video. The video also shows the councilor reviewing documents related to the plan, highlighting the discrepancy between the plan's stated goals and the apparent lack of transparency in the apartment allocation. The Apă Canal's response to Mr. Melnic's requests is currently pending. This incident highlights the importance of transparency and accountability in the allocation of public resources.
