sarmale_op_229×171.jpgA story that hits a little close to home, Nokia’s factory in Cluj is complete ahead of schedule. There are still a few problems concerning feeding the building enough power and the roads to the plant need to be built, but Romania and Nokia are confident that work can begin in the middle of January.

I haven’t been to Romania in over half a decade so I can’t comment.

Picture on the right contains Romanian stuffed cabbage, called Sarmale. I can’t wait to go home this Christmas.
