State salaries in Romania vary in a very wide range. Low salaries are paid in the education system, health system, media, culture, while in the banking system, insurance and business the salaries compete with the ones in Western Europe. And we are not talking about the salaries in the private system, we are talking about salaries from the Romanian state. A rather poor state in general terms.

Let’s look at two cases, as ‘Ziarul financiar’ did.

Carmen Iohannis, the wife of President Klaus Iohannis, was a teacher of English language in Sibiu city with the ‘Gheorghe Lazar’ high school. According to ZF her monthly salary was in 2014 of RON 2,187 (approx. EUR 485). Iuliana Luiza Scutaru, wife of presidential adviser Adrian George Scutaru, is working with the Financial Supervisory Authority (ASF). Her salary last year amounted to RON 30,425 per month (approx. EUR 6,760)! We are not talking about the president’s wife in particular here. It’s just an example. Yet, we wonder what kind of work does Mrs. Scutaru carry to be paid no less than 14 times more than a teacher?
