Dear Mrs. Tea,
 
Thank you for your interest about the experience of the NEA of the Republic of Moldova in the field of labour migration. All the presented questions cover the activity of the NEA, according to the legislation in force, thus I have the possibility to discuss the issues below.
According to the indication of the director of NEA, Mrs. Dogaru Raisa, I was nominated to have a discussion with you.
 
I would like to propose you to organize our discussion via skype address: lilia.plugaru1
The convenient time for me would be tomorrow, July 5, at 10.00 (Chisinau time).
 
Best regards,

Dear Ms. Valentina Lungu,

 

Thank you very much for your comprehensive response and kind readiness to share your experience!

Both dates seem to be quite acceptable for me; I’ll be looking forward to further information from you about the exact convenient timing.

I would prefer English as our working language, if it is not a problem for you.

As for the topics, thanks for your kind proposal, but I am afraid the list of my questions is quite broadJ allow me, please, to mention main issues of my interest and let’s see how much we are able to cover and accomodate:

-         First of all, I would like to enquire how the entire system is organized and works, when it comes to State regulation of the labor migration – on policy level, legislation and implementation. What is your experience and lessons learnt.

-         I’ll appreciate if it is possible to see the structure of the NEA, with an accent on its labor migration unit/department; namely, how many people are working on labor migration, what are their functions and main qualification requirements to fulfill these functions.

-         In this respect of course it is important to know what is the structure and functions of the relevant policy department within the Ministry; and what is established best practice of coordinated actions/cooperation between the labor migration units/departments of NEA and Ministry.

-         How you regulate cooperation with private employment companies and what are the conditions of licensing.

-         Stemming from your experience, what is the most efficient and best way to communicate with the citizens within the country on labor migration possibilities – including: a) strategic communication about the benefits of this issue, as well as - b) proper and correct communication in order to manage expectations; c) communication in order to elaborate a good data-base/registry of potential migrants; d) best ways for informing about concrete vacancies and working possibilities abroad. – How much did you use TV/online means/regional representations/or any other means for this purpose.

 

If you have any public document available in English or Russian and can share, it would definitely be of an additional help (legislative acts, structure charts of relevant institutions, document defining functions etc.)

Once again, thank you very much for your cooperation!

 

Best Regards,

Tea Akhvlediani

Dear Ms Tea Akhvlediani,

 

         Thank you very much for your kind letter and the interest in our experience in the field of labour migration! We are very sorry for the late confirmation, due to some technical problems with the e-mail connection on 27 June.

         We would be happy to share our knowledge via a video skype conference next week, on 4 or 5 July 2019, because our colleagues, responsible for these activities within NEA, are in official trip abroad for the moment.

        Would you be so kind to indicate us in the meantime the specific topics you are interested in, in order to prepare the presentation in Power Point, and if it is more comfortable for you,

         we may discuss in Russian as well during our video meeting. We will come back to you next week with a confirmation of exact time and the list of participants from the National Employment Agency.

 

 

With best regards,

Dear Ms. Valentina Lungu,

 

Hope this e-mail finds you doing well.

I am Tea Akhvlediani, Deputy Minister of IDPs, Labor, Health and Social Protection, in charge of labor migration issues.

I’ve been kindly recommended by my colleague and friend, Moldovan Ambassador to Estonia H.E. Mrs. Inga Ionesii to contact you, to share Moldovan experience on organizational system and structure to manage temporary legal labor migration.

I’ve visited ANOFM web-page and got acquainted with respective information as much as possible in English language.

Regrettably my agenda does not allow me, at this point, to travel and meet my colleagues to properly share the experience of respective countries.

Therefore, I’ll appreciate very much if we manage to speak on phone (whatsapp?) at convenient time for both of us. Could you please let me know about your availability with this respect?

 

Kind Regards,

Tea Akhvlediani
