Romania: anti-immigrants gathering in Catholic village inhabited by Hungarian ethnics

[Nurzat]

two men from Sri Lanka were hired at a bakery in the village of Ditró (Hargita megye), which annoyed the locals, that gathered in front of the village council to ask the mayor to send away the two foreigners.

quoting from what the villagers said to the media:

"We are not used to these people. The bread they make we have to eat and we look whose hand we eat from.”

"If we receive the two now, others will come. But they treat Christians pretty nasty back in their countries.”

"I do not look at them with good eyes, because we now must protect our women and children from such people."

"They bring us diseases, things we are not used to."


The mayor said people in the village are more conservative and don't like foreigners, especially of another skin colour.

here's one article on the matter


well, there was no such a reaction against the Vietnamese, Filipino or Chinese workers that are in Romania in much larger numbers.


PS. there were over 40,000 foreign workers in Romania by September 2019 and will be supplemented with at least another 30,000 in 2020, the main source countries being: Vietnam, Nepal, India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Philippines, China.

there are over 14,000 foreign students studying full-term in universities in Romania (so excluding Erasmus and exchange students), main source countries being: Israel (but Arab ethnics from the country), France (mainly Arab origin again, plus African origin), Tunisia, Greece, Morocco, Lebanon, Egypt, Jordan. most study medicine. and most are in northeastern Romanian city of Iași (Moldova region).

including Erasmus, there are over 23,000 foreign students in Romania last year, the vast majority males. for Erasmus the main source countries were Spain, Greece, Italy and France.

by the numbers and by always seeing the foreigners in the company of local women, one may say this abundance of foreign male students in Romania is also a sort of sex tourism (Arabs, Spaniards and French of African and Arab origin seem to benefit the most from it)

Vietnamese, Filipino or Chinese workers are more fun

I've decided for Romania. We are willing to accept all but you have to make good cabbage rolls. that is all we ask.

differences in cabbage rolls:

Ukrainians in north Romania (Maramures/Bucovina):

- call them holupci (holuptzi) instead of sarmale
- make them with bulgur and chopped local forest mushrooms instead of rice and minced meat
- only make them in pickled cabbage leaves instead of salted vine leaves (which Romanians often use)


my personal taste: Romanian sarmale usually taste better than Ukrainian holupci

I'm used to the rice and minced meat version from southern Transylvania. I also had Polish and Russian versions, but not Ukrainian. I have distant relations to Maramures, great place.

Actually it was the bakery profit and owners greediness that brought those two Sri Lankans in the middle of Szekely land (min:7:46 in the movie)... The events chronology here: https://romania.europalibera.org/a/v.../30410237.html

Hungarians are one of the last european ethnic groups with a backbone.
