Not just the municipality: a second wave of town-hall mergers is forming around Pîrlița in the Ungheni district

While the municipality of Ungheni negotiates a union with ten surrounding localities, a second nucleus of voluntary amalgamation is taking shape in the west of the district: Pîrlița, together with Agronomovca, Alexeevca, Rădenii Vechi and Teșcureni, held a second joint working meeting on the subject. Around the table were the working groups of the five town halls and the Government's territorial representative, Ion Poia. Administrative reform is no longer an abstract discussion — concrete maps are being drawn.

Half a million lei for a village school: the state repairs the Boghenii Noi gymnasium

The Ministry of Education and Research will invest 500,000 lei in the „Anatol Popovici” gymnasium in Boghenii Noi for repair works this summer, the Ungheni District Council announced. It is state money going straight into a rural school in the Culei area — a concrete figure and a clear funder, which is usually missing from announcements about repairs in educational institutions. What exactly the sum covers was not detailed.

77 years since the largest wave of deportations: Ungheni commemorates its victims on Monday, at the Martyrs' Cross

The Ungheni municipal town hall calls on residents, on Monday, 6 July, at 10 a.m., to the Troița Martirilor Neamului (Martyrs of the Nation Cross) to commemorate the victims of the Stalinist deportations. The date is no accident: on the night of 5 to 6 July 1949, the Soviet regime lifted thousands of families from their homes across Bessarabia — the largest wave of deportations. In the Ungheni district alone, the „Book of Memory” gathers around 2,900 names of victims of totalitarianism, from more than 60 localities.

Old clothes turned into new pieces: students at the Ungheni vocational school learned upcycling in a European circular-fashion project

In May and June, the Ungheni vocational school hosted two creative workshops — „Cercul inovativ al tradiției” and „Firul memoriei” — in which participants gave a second life to old clothes and made objects from recycled materials. The workshops were brought in by ZIPHOUSE, Chișinău's creative and fashion-industry hub, through TEX-DAN, an initiative of the European Interreg programme dedicated to the circular economy in textiles. For a school that trains tailors and garment makers, it is a bridge between the core trade and one of the most pressing environmental problems of our time: fashion-industry waste.

Kitchen of the „Poienița” kindergarten in Cornești rebuilt from scratch: tiles, professional ventilation and a new stove for children's meals

The Cornești town hall announced on 3 July that renovation of the food block — the kitchen where children's meals are cooked every day — at the „Poienița” kindergarten is complete. Official photos show a room lined with tiles, an industrial extractor hood and ducting, a four-burner stove, and new furniture and sinks. The announcement does not say how much the work cost or who paid for it, and the Register of Local Acts contains no town-council decision explicitly dedicated to this project.

Imported car with no original papers? Ungheni drivers no longer travel to Chișinău or Bălți to register it

Since late June, the Public Services Agency has simplified the registration of imported cars that lack original documents or have only a copy of the registration certificate. The step that forced owners to drive the car to one of three identification offices — in Chișinău, Bălți or Cahul — and wait up to three days has been dropped: technical identification is now done at any subdivision that registers vehicles, including in Ungheni.

Pipes going in on Decebal: work has started on the road to the economic zone

Storm-drain work has begun on Decebal street in Ungheni — the first stage in rebuilding the 1,003-metre stretch leading to the free economic zone. Mayor Vitalie Vrabie visited the site on the morning of 3 July and pressed the contractor to pick up the pace, after asking it on 22 June to speed up the start. The total investment tops 25 million lei, and the works are promised for autumn.

Ungheni's runners bring home three golds from the national athletics championships: Cernat and Buzulan, senior champions

At the Republic of Moldova senior athletics championships, held on 30 June–1 July at the Dinamo Stadium in Chișinău, the athletes from Ungheni came home with three gold medals and one bronze. Ecaterina Cernat won the 5000 m by more than two minutes, and Gheorghe Buzulan took the 3000 m steeplechase — both senior titles. The third gold and the bronze came from the youth races, where Ion Baran ran the fastest time in the 1500 m final. It is a haul from a small town that climbs onto the podium alongside the country's biggest sports schools.

22 July, the deadline: the Ungheni merger enters its final consultation before the vote

The ten localities set to form a single town hall around Ungheni opened a second public consultation on 2 July — this time on the concrete text of the merger decision, not on the principle. Recommendations are accepted until 22 July, and the document is public on the national platform particip.gov.md. It is the last stage before each council votes. In the villages, the first discontent is surfacing: in Costuleni, the most-liked comment compares the process to collectivisation.
