Six health centres in Ungheni call the diaspora onto their boards — with a vote, but unpaid

A month after merging the district's health centres — from 11 down to 6 —, the Ungheni District Council is rebuilding their governing boards and inviting doctors who have left the country, as well as people from the community, to take a seat on them. The post carries a vote on the institution's strategy, budget and procurement, but it is unpaid, on a voluntary basis. Applications are due by the end of July — 24 July at the Ungheni Health Centre, 27 July according to the District Council's notice for all six centres.

Ungheni district pays for 400 day-camp places for children: who goes free and what everyone else pays

Ungheni District Council opened the second session of the “Prietenia” (Friendship) camp on 6 July — a “day camp” for children, in Ungheni and Măcărești. Behind the ceremony lie concrete figures that matter to parents: 1.26 million lei from the district budget, 400 places spread across four 10-day sessions, free for children from vulnerable families and a 15% fee for everyone else. The programme has become the district's main form of organised holiday after the “Codreanca” camp was liquidated in February.

Ten Ungheni students with straight 10s honoured at the first excellence gala — and there are now six at the Baccalaureate, not four

On Friday, the Ungheni District Council held the first edition of its «Ungheni — Where Excellence Inspires» gala and awarded a diploma, a cash prize and flowers to ten students who scored a final mark of 10 in every national exam: six high-school graduates and four from lower secondary. Meanwhile, the final Baccalaureate results have raised the number of Ungheni students with straight 10s from four, as the preliminary data showed, to six — and this time one of them is a boy.

Ungheni farmers learn to register their day labourers online: the e-Zilier platform is now mandatory, and from 2027 fieldwork could get more expensive

At the Ungheni District Council, representatives of the Ministry of Labour and of the Farmers' Federation trained the district's agricultural producers on e-Zilier — the electronic register in which, since 1 June 2026, every seasonal worker must be logged before picking up a hoe, with an electronic signature and under threat of a fine if they are not entered in time. The platform promises less red tape and, for the first time, pension credit for day labourers. The local stakes are high: the district works some 30,000 hectares but has only around 1,200 formal agricultural employees — a sign that the bulk of fieldwork is precisely the seasonal kind the platform is bringing into the open. Hanging over it all is a separate tax proposal for 2027 that would raise contributions for day labourers from 0% to 21%.

At Ungheni's former boarding school, pickleball and badminton courts are taking shape — after €50,000 from Maramureș

Ungheni District Council is building a sports facility in the yard of the town's former boarding school, at the Educational Centre. After the mini-football pitch built in 2024 with €50,000 from the Maramureș County Council — now used in the 'Prietenia' summer camp — badminton and pickleball courts are 'in the final stretch.' A construction-site board indicates a value of about 1.77 million lei for this stage.

€15,000 from Iași brings heating and a toilet to the family-doctor office in Cioropcani

At an extraordinary session on 18 June, the Ungheni District Council approved a 500,000-lei project that will give the Family Doctors' Office in Cioropcani heating, a sanitary unit and a proper entrance — basic conditions it still lacked. Most of the money, €15,000 out of €24,875, comes from the Iași County Council under a cross-border cooperation agreement signed back in 2009; the district adds the rest. At the same session, councillors allocated money from the district budget and approved writing off worn-out assets at two schools — the exact allocation sum was not public at the time of the session.

A woman took the oath of allegiance in Ungheni and became a citizen of Moldova

At the Ungheni District Council, in a solemn setting, with the national anthem, the district president confirmed the taking of the oath of allegiance by a new citizen of the Republic of Moldova — the exact legal moment at which someone becomes a citizen. Triunghi.md does not reveal her identity; but we use the occasion to explain a process that is rarely discussed: how, by which routes and for how many people Moldovan citizenship is acquired today — in a year when the numbers rose sharply.
