Scéal an Airgid: Programme 03

New 3 part series on Ireland's economy on TG4 Wednesday 1st September at 9:30pm

Tugann Máire Bhreathnach faoi thuras timpeall na tíre ag lorg comharthaí na hathbheochana eacnamaíochta. Scrúdaíonn sí na gnólachtaí beaga dúchasacha a thuilleann bunús ioncam na tíre, agus amharcann sí ar an éifeacht a bhí ag polasaithe an Rialtais agus polasaithe na mbancanna orthu. Cuireann sí Éire i gcomparáid leis an tSualainn, áit a raibh géarchéim baincéireachta sna naochaidí. Faigheann Máire amach conas atá ag eirí le muintir na Sualainne i gcóras eacnamaíochta agus polaitiúil an-éagsúil. Ar ais sa bhaile, leanann Máire na fir agus mná gnó atá ag streachailt le hairgead a shaothrú agus le fostaíocht a sholáthar, agus amharcann sí ag na straitéisí is fearr dul chun cinn a dhéanamh.

English Translation

Presenter Máire Bhreathach sets off in search of Ireland's economic green shoots though the experiences of some of the country's small indigenous businesses which bring in most of the nation's income, discovering how they've been affected by the policies of the government and of the banks. She compares what's happening here with Sweden's experience of a banking crisis in the 1990s and, crucially, how its citizens fare in a very different economic and political model. Back home she follows the day-to-day struggles that our own business men and women are encountering trying to make money and continue providing employment and explores how the nation is best placed to move on into the 21st Century.

Tugann Máire Bhreathnach faoi thuras timpeall na tíre ag lorg comharthaí na hathbheochana eacnamaíochta. Scrúdaíonn sí na gnólachtaí beaga dúchasacha agus buaileann sí le fir agus mná gnó atá ag streachailt le hairgead a shaothrú agus le fostaíocht a sholáthar i dtionscadail mar turasóireacht, spórt agus cosmaidí. Cad é atá an rialtas á dhéanamh le cuidiú leo teacht slán tríd an chúlú eacnamaíochta seo, agus cé chomh tuisceanach is atá na bancanna?

Leanann an láithreoir Máire Bheathnach ar a turas ag fiosrú anord an chúlú eacnamaíochta agus sa chlár seo tugann sí cuairt ar an Sualainn, áit ar chaith siad go héifeachtach leis an ghéarchéim baincéireachta a bhí ann sa tír. Deirtear go bhfuil Éire ag baint feidhm as na straitéisí a bhí acu. Agus sí sa tSualainn, cluineann sí faoin tionscadal gnó a bhfuil difríochtaí móra leis. Chomh maith le sin, buaileann sí le cuid de na fir agus mná gnó ab éigean dóibh athruithe a dhéanamh chun teacht slán as an tréimhse deacair seo, agus feiceann Máire í fhéin cé chomh doiligh is atá sé.

English Translation

Presenter Máire Bhreathnach continues her journey through the maelstrom of Ireland's 21st Century recession with a visit to Sweden which successfully managed its own bank crisis - an approach Ireland is now said to be emulating. There she finds a very different business culture with significant differences in how the pain has been inflicted. And she catches up with some of the business men and women who have been adapting to survive through the hard times - and witnessing for herself just how tough it's getting.

Tugann sí cuairt eile ar na fir agus mná gnó a lean sí ó thús 2010. Ar éirigh leis na straitéisí a bhí acu chun teacht tríd an ghéarchéim eacnamaíochta, agus cad iad na ceachtanna is féidir a fhoghlaim agus an náisiún ag bogadh i dtreo 2011?
