The barriers to growth in the past were an unholy alliance among oligarchic interests and political parties, scandalous procurement, clientelism, the permanently broken media, overly accommodating banks, weak tax authorities, and a weighed-down, fearful judiciary. Only the bright light of democratic transparency can remove such impediments; our government is determined to help it shine through.
过去的增长壁垒是由寡头利益和政党、可耻的采购、裙带主义、永远不作为的媒体、过于随和的银行、疲软的税收当局和堕落怕事的司法系统组成的邪恶同盟。唯有民主透明之光能消灭这些障碍，我国政府决心帮助亮光照进希腊。
