Viktor Orban has discreetly opened his country's doors to thousands of 'guest workers' from Asia over the past few months
The workers in Kistelek cannot remember ever having new colleagues who have come from so far away
for the first time in the history of this small community of 7,000 inhabitants in central Hungary
some 20 Indonesians arrived to help the 200 workers at the electrical cable factory
which is currently overwhelmed with orders
"We explained to our Hungarian workers that we were so short of manpower that production might be blocked and that they wouldn't be able to go on vacation," said Marton Balog
which belongs to the Italian multinational Prysmian
the Indonesian workers were still in the training phase
but the Italian company hopes that they will be able to be fully autonomous in the coming weeks
"I had only heard of Hungary from the World Cup," said Muhamad Firdaus
who has come to this remote corner of central Europe to spend 12 hours a day assembling cables
He has even started learning the difficult Magyar language
is also "very happy" to have left his native Indonesia for the first time in his life "in order to earn about twice as much." That's a little more than 600 euros net per month
but one that is no longer enough to attract Hungarian workers
"We first went looking in Ukraine and Romania
So we thought we'd look even further away in Southeast Asia," said Tiago Campelo
the manager of human resources at Prysmian's Hungarian subsidiary

Marta Seiler set about the mundane task of decluttering her house ahead of a move and came across a box of papers handed to her by her aunt that she had unthinkingly dumped in the attic
“The very first piece of paper I picked up turned out to be the last message my paternal grandmother
ever sent before being transported to Auschwitz,” says Ms Seiler
Her grandmother’s postcard was one piece of the family’s Holocaust history that had been kept secret all her life — and Marta’s initial reaction was to put it all away and try and not think about it
“I was overwhelmed and confused,” she says
“the historical had become personal.” The discovery led to a series of heartbreaking revelations about her family’s past – but they would also help rekindle her Jewish faith
The Seiler family lived in the village of Kistelek
and owned several businesses and properties
But the government fell under Nazi influence and antisemitic laws began to be brought in
By November 1940 Hungary had joined the Axis powers
explained that Cecilia was being taken away although she didn’t know to where
She says that she is praying she will see her son again,” says Marta
“Even now I’m crying because she sounds so desperate” As Ms Seiler began to sort through the archive
she first lived with her mother Izabella and her father Lajos Seiler in Kistelek
Her parents never spoke of their wartime experiences and in communist Hungary the Shoah was not acknowledged
Marta’s father died from the long-term effects of the typhus he had contracted in a labour camp
and she subsequently grew up with a non-Jewish stepfather
Marta was particularly puzzled why her grandmother had written to her son at an address in the south east of the country
I discovered it was a work camp,” she says
she began to learn about the policy of Munkaszolgálat whereby Jewish men
who were prohibited from serving in the Hungarian army
were sent to the forced labour camps where they were treated with extreme cruelty
“I was combing through family papers and online information
and I could only do a little bit at a time
Marta suffered a serious stroke and after she recovered
she returned to her research with renewed vigour
“Being close to death gave me a sense of urgency
I knew I had to complete the the job,” she says
a sense of identity that deepened when she joined Maidenhead Synagogue
we would visit my father’s grave in the Jewish cemetery
but I mainly knew I was Jewish thanks to playground insults
It was becoming a member of the synagogue that made Judaism feel like my spiritual home.” When Britain went into lockdown she finally completed her painful research
“I had the time and space to translate the remaining papers and letters
This was when I found that my mother’s first husband
had been beaten to death in a labour camp and that my mother had been sent to Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen.” “I felt like I had completed a jigsaw
I just wished I’d had someone by my side to tell me how the pieces fitted together,” she says
Learning about her family’s past also helped her to understand how the Shoah had shaped her parents
they returned to Kistelek where they married
the way the way they raised me and my brother was
informed by the feeling that everything could be taken away from them at any time.” Reading the letters also made her feel close to the grandmother she had never met
but had never liked the name Cecilia and used Marta instead
This now makes me feel very guilty,” says Marta
“It’s taken years to fully understand what was in that box and I’ve shed a lot of tears doing so
and why.” The Seiler family’s documents are held at Yad Vashem
Their story is told in ‘Surviving the Holocaust and Stalin: The Amazing Story of the Seiler Family’

With the unique characteristics of the local soil in Kistelek
and rapid warming - pepper grower Buknicz István decided to optimize crop growth with plant-based biostimulants
Intrigued by the promise of enhanced root development
the pepper grower decided to integrate a Van Iperen biostimulant into the cultivation process
"Plants for Plants® 4-Terra activates the PHT2;1 gene
enhancing Phosphate assimilation within the pepper plant for robust growth
it enables a prosperous soil microflora through a "Microbioma effect," ensuring optimal nutrient availability," the team with Van Iperen says
Root System DevelopmentFrom the initial planting stages
the grower witnessed an acceleration in root system development
The treated crop not only caught up with the control one but surpassed it
the treated crop showed a larger leaf surface
showcasing the biostimulant's impact on water and nutrient absorption
The treated crop was also compared with an untreated one
"We notice the differences in root system density

Police apprehended an 18-year-old man less than nine hours after he allegedly murdered the 51-year-old mother of his ex-girlfriend in Budapest’s 2nd district
as reported by the police through an official statement
Detectives from the Budapest Police Headquarters (BRFK) quickly identified the suspect
officers from the Kistelek Police Department located and apprehended Tamás Sz
He was subsequently taken to the Budapest Police Headquarters
where the Life Protection Division (Életvédelmi Osztály) is leading the investigation on suspicion of murder
Authorities are currently processing the suspect
the well-known television expert Zsuzsa Révész
in the attack reported by Daily News Hungary this morning
“RTL Hungary was saddened to learn of the death of our former colleague Zsuzsa Révész
who managed the company’s marketing communications activities for many years
We will cherish her memory,” the company said on its Facebook page
and website in this browser for the next time I comment

or assault are just a few among the types of criminal activities that have become commonplace
Here are the most crime-riddent areas of the country
The National Police Headquarters has long been featuring an infection map on its website
the extent to which crime has infected a particular area concerning ten specific types of crimes
The compilation by Index was also crafted using this map
The police present the data concerning the number of crimes per 100,000 inhabitants
noticeable differences may emerge between the capital and other counties
Despite millions residing in the Hungarian capital and its agglomeration
the large numbers do not proportionally attract an increase in criminal activities
where areas are ranked based on all committed crimes
it’s Heves County in the northern part of the country
The counties are ranked with the following number of reported crimes:
the results can be shocking: in Hevesi district (based on police figures per 100,000 inhabitants)
the authorities had to take action against 2,736 crimes
Heves County is once again the leader in the number of thefts
with 1,044 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the district of Heves
which is in stark contrast to the last place
Nógrád takes over the lead from Heves with a number of 29 (Heves in second place with 28
and Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok in third place with 20)
it was not Békés but Hajdú-Bihar with only 6 such crimes
In the case of violence against the person
this category includes the offences of homicide
Nógrád County tops the list with 300 cases
followed by Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County with 279
Csongrád-Csanád County came last with 129 cases
Nyírbátor and its surroundings in Szabolcs had the highest number of cases
while in the district of Kistelek in Csongrád
